Abstract: Abstract When most HR professionals bemoan the lack of a “seat at the table” they are usually referring to the inability to impact the strategic decision making that takes place in the executive suite. There is no arguing that a seat at the table in the executive suite, of course, represents a very important role for HR. As we have discussed earlier in this book, the senior HR professional with a seat at the table in the C-Suite can play an absolutely critical role in increasing the effectiveness of the CEO and the other senior executives of the enterprise. The senior HR professional in the C-Suite with a seat at the table does this by helping to improve the senior executive team’s knowledge and understanding of effective human resource management.
