According to Mike Watts, keynote speaker at this Septemberís IOD event:

ìMuch has been theorised about one of the HR industryís favourite buzz words, ëBusiness Partnerí, yet it is almost impossible to create one definitive model that can be adapted across the board. Moreover, it is essential to highlight key differentiators within organisations to maximise both the theory and application behind any Business Partner model.

ìAt The Cabinet Office, we are in the process of introducing Competency Matrices to cross-reference ëpeople needsí with the overall business requirement, targeting different levels of seniority with a differing voice and approach.
