Public Sector HR Podcast Interview With Jackie Orme CEO Of The CIPD
Public Sector HR Podcast show #020 was released recently and features an interview with Jackie Orme who became CEO of the CIPD just over a year ago. I chat with her to find out what she’s been up to since taking on this role and also find out about her future plans for the organisation.
Jackie feels her biggest achievement so far, has been to tighten up the relevance of the CIPD qualification and membership criteria, aligning it to what employers need in the workplace.
She tells us about the HR Profession map, which has been developed by HR Practitioners to enable the CIPD to look at the world of HR at it’s best today and then use that picture, to underpin how their qualifications and membership criteria will be defined in the future. The map is written to ensure that HR professionals understand the needs of external customers and their role in involving employee attitudes to reflect these needs.

A study conducted in May, found that people who were satisfied with their firm’s commitment to social and environmental issues were more positive, involved and productive than those working for less responsible employers.
