You are definitely right on the first step. All the processes that could be automated should be automated. That's why E-HRM is slowly taking over the market. I am also a big believer of a HR department that speaks the language of the business. You are idea makes sense, but will never be the reality. I have another interpretation of the language of the business: money. I believe in employee retention management (that's the reason why I started blogging on www.lodiplanting.com) and I believe in what you call mythe of HR needing a seat at the excecutive table. With employee retention management HR can do many usefull things for the company by aligning all the HR-processes (your step 2). At the same time HR can add value by saving money for the company and empower the business from the driver seat. HR can make the difference here. Nevertheless I am not arguing your arguments here that HR shouldn't involve innovation in the pure way innovation is meant to be, but HR can take the lead in empowering all employees to donate their ideas. Cheers, Lodi Hi Luc,
