Business acumen is becoming increasingly important for HR professionals, but when it comes to the people management agenda, they're still expected to be in charge.
HR professionals might increasingly be viewed as business people first, HR specialists second, but when it comes to driving the people management agenda, HR is still expected to take the lead.

Survey results found that across all regions, attracting, engaging and retaining the best people came in at the top of the priority list.
