Human Resource Management

• Human Resource Management is a strategic function.
• Investments in people must be related to organizational strategy.
• There must be a measurable return for every HR initiative.
• For example, most effort should be made to develop those employees with potential to add most value to the organization.
• Many approaches to HR in the past have regarded people a bit mechanistically - as resources, parts of a machine.
• As more leadership and entrepreneurial action is demanded of all employees, the more HR must play an enabling role rather than a controlling one.
• HR professionals can best show leadership by championing new initiatives to help their organizations make better use of its talent. HR professionals can be leaders, not just suppliers of services.
• The most critical role for HR today is to foster talent management. In a knowledge driven age, business is a war of ideas, so it is all about the people, more than ever.
