HR balancing act - business partner / employee advocate

Hello, A question of a novice: I would love to hear arguments/view points for and against the unitarist approach of HRM. How does this approach support you as a HR professional? How do you balance your role as a Business Partner and Employee Advocate at the same time? Thank you!

I thought the word unitarist is widely used within HR circle as the profession is based on this idea.
J. Storey mentions in his books also the article I referenced and I come across this expression numerous times in HR articles. It is great to get the view of HR professionals like you so thank you. :-)

I have been studying/practising HRM for very many years and teaching it for 6 but I do not think I have come across the term. I think I knew what it means but it is not a term that is in widespread use.
