Overview
Your company has had embedded HR generalists in business units for several years. Over that time, it has become more costly and more difficult to maintain standards, and it is frustrating for business units to have that budget “hit.” The leadership has decided to move to a more centralized model of delivering HR services and has asked you to evaluate that proposition and begin establishing a project team to initiate the needed changes. The project team is selected, and you must now provide a general direction.
