Group’s 20th Annual Best Practices Conference in Atlanta. It was
based on the results of an in-depth HR benchmark performed by The
Hackett Group, and recognizes HP’s status as an organization
demonstrating top quartile efficiency and effectiveness in HR

federal government organizations, and academic institutions. HP

sustainable efficiency and effectiveness in HR,” said The Hackett

establish a strong agenda for HR. Using them, companies can drive
efficiencies, maintain a rigorous focus on talent management, and
move towards a holistic, integrated workforce management system
that is closely aligned to their business needs.”
According to HP’s Perez de Alonso, “Our goal has been to build a
best-in-class HR organization that is engaged in making talent a
competitive advantage for HP, and enabling the business to deliver
on its strategy. Our workforce planning and people development
programs are focused on better enabling people for success across
