Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As head of HR, Georgiana's main responsibility is to assess the capability of the firm's human resources to handle the proposed strategy of opening a branch in Amsterdam. This involves a frank communication to the other executives regarding their current human resources, which will enable them to make an informed decision about the feasibility of the proposed strategy. While raising ethical issues and discussing labour laws are important considerations, they are not directly related to Georgiana's role in HR. Meeting the strategy's requirement no matter what the current state of the company's human resources is also not a viable option as it may lead to failure if the required resources are not available.
