SHRM Recommended Readings
High Commitment High Performance
Michael Beer, Ph.D., is an emeritus professor of business administration at the Harvard Business School and chairman of True-Point, a research based consultancy he co-founded. Before joining the faculty of HBS, Beer founded and served as director of the organizational research and development department at Corning Inc. Beer has authored nine books and served as senior author of the groundbreaking Managing Human Assets, the first book to frame human resource management as a general management responsibility.

To make an important strategic contribution to the organization you are serving, you must help general managers — CEOs, business unit managers and operating managers — build a resilient high commitment, high performance (HCHP) organization. These organizations are able to achieve sustained advantage. Taking key findings from his recent book High Commitment, High Performance, Beer will present three essential organizational outcomes you must help your business partner achieve and the silent managerial and organizational barriers that his research shows stand in the way. He will discuss principled choices leaders must make if you aspire to build a strong organization and five change levers leaders must employ to achieve sustained change. You will learn about the role and methods you can employ to help your business partners diagnose your organization and transform it.
