HR Strategy: What is it? Why do we need it?

The modern organization cannot survive without the innovative HR Management. The modern HR Management is always based on the underlying HR Strategy. However, many companies do not have the competitive strategy and they do not utilize the full potential of Human Resources in the organization.

What is the HR Strategy? Generally, it is not just a document. It is a true roadmap for HR. It allows to HR employees to find the right way and it gives the certainty to top executives that Human Resources is on the right track.

The HR Strategy is a basis for your success.

HR Industry: Trends
•
Hiring talents globally to ensure that all positions in the organization are
staffed with the best talents
•
Supporting innovations to build the sustainable competitive advantage
•
Building highly diverse teams as each team can have members from
different continent and from a completely different cultural background ...
setting new rules for the team work and gaining the right team spirit
•
Working with the older employees ... the company gets older, the
employees get older as well ... keeping the young spirit inside the
organization is the challenge and a trend
•
Pushing responsibility down the chain while keeping global and local
policies ... the global organization is not agile, the local organization cannot
be controlled efficiently ... HR has to find the right balance between global
policies and the local execution
•
Less permanent employees and more project based employees ... the life-
time employment is the word from the history ... the organization cannot
offer the certainty, the employees do not offer the loyalty... the project
based employment will be on a rise
