500			_a For companies striving to meet the competitive challenges of today and tomorrow - including globalization, technology, profitability through growth, and capacity for change - the management of human resources holds the key to future success. Ulrich urges a shift of the HR professional's mentality from "what I do" to "what I deliver" and identifies four distinct roles that human resources staff must assume in order. The author argues that the roles of human resource professionals must be redefined to meet the competitive challenges organizations face today and into the future. He provides a framework that identifies four distinct roles of human resource professionals: strategic player, administrative expert, employee champion, and change agent. He includes many examples to demonstrate that human resource professionals must operate in all four areas simultaneously in order to contribute fully. He urges a shift of these professionals' mentality from "what I do" to "what I deliver" and makes specific recommendations for how individuals in human resources can partner with line managers to make organizations more competitive.
