For long time, I think HR head is a very important position for a corporation. Employee morale is related to the policies of HR. Among the policies, promotion and incentive are two main factors. HR is responsible to come up with a promotion and incentive policy based on review and evaluation. The review and evaluation should be objective and reflect the wants and needs of the corporation. For a product development unit, technology and skills are the key element to promote a person. The chief engineer should be a person with expertise in all of major subsystems.
Read an article about the new CEO of Ford will bring in his previous HR at Boeing to Ford. Two more big tasks for a HR head of a corporation like Ford, are corporate structure construction and labor negotiation.
Just like a human body, the whole organization should be an organic one. Different functions should coordinate and cooperate to serve the best of the organization.
