HR and finance are two inseparable heads of the same organizational coin. Now-a-days many organizations are going to witness the redefined collaboration of Finance and HR. The collaborative support of these two pillars shall enable the entrepreneurs of those organizations to gain competitive advantage in volatile markets. Despite being a matter of cardinal significance and integral area of management discourse, ‘HR-finance collaboration under active support of the entrepreneurs/CEOs’ as a topic has not drawn much attention of management researchers and academicians. However, the visionary and innovative entrepreneurs are realising the importance and impact of HR-Finance interface in strategic and functional areas of their businesses. Initially, when we started writing this book, we faced a major challenge due to scarcity of adequate information. Ultimately we managed to complete this book where we tried our level best to place need-based and relevant corporate information, our findings, case examples and suggestions.
