There's lots of rubbish HR work going on out there of course, but there's also a lot of good people & good work being delivered.
What strikes me is that for all the networking that goes on in the emerging markets of the GCC and surrounding areas; is that there aren't that many good referrals going on for projects in the HR space.
The amount of times I get asked for "2 or 3 good HRIS companies" is shocking really. Clearly there aren't enough good providers on the ground in the HR technology space just yet, but those people/firms that are out there just aren't easy enough to find.
I got asked today who could help implement a Peer-to-Peer review system in a company, yesterday I was asked for an Ad agency and branding specialist who focus on career branding. Truth is I don't know where to point clients all the time. There's loads of recruitment firms, too many, and the difficulty is finding the one to work with who best understands or is committed to deliver for you. For HR projects or consultancy it's the other way round.
What I'm getting at here I guess is the need for a website or blog etc where consultants and firms can list what their area of expertise is and which countries or sectors they cover. If you know of one then please let me know, and if you read this and want to start one then I'd be glad to hear about it.
