"Human capital management is not an HR responsibility, it's an
organizational responsibility. However, it is incumbent upon HR to enable
the business to drive strategy execution," said Kevin Martin, vice
president and principal analyst, Human Capital Management at Aberdeen
Group. "Our research shows that the current state of the economy will
increase the strategic importance of HCM at the vast majority of
organizations. Our HCM Summit will showcase been-there, done-that
executives who challenge the status quo of HR and enable their
organizations to achieve and maintain a competitive edge."
