The past year was challenging for businesses of every size in every industry. According to many experts, the most difficult times are behind us economically, but 2010 promises to present many other challenges. One of the major challenges that HR leaders continue to face and will face even more in the future is the tough conversation with a CIO as organizations struggle to balance functionality and usability vs. a perceived lower total cost of ownership. This along with many other issues mean that HR will need to ensure tight organizational alignment, be able to clearly state HR goals and objectives, engage the workforce, and fill gaps in critical roles in the company.
