Organizational HR Function Project

Organizational HR Function Project. For this project, you will be acting as an HR consultant pitching your services to an organization. The goal of this project is to identify an organization, identify and describe an HR function area, and make recommendations to the organization of ways you, as an HR practitioner, could be of benefit to the organization. Your recommendations should consider the contribution to the strategic goals/planning of the organization.
