HR Strategy

Human Resource Strategy

A Human Resource strategy is a business’s overall plan for managing its human capital to align it with its business activities.
The Human Resource strategy sets the direction for all the key areas of HR, including hiring, performance appraisal, development, compensation and succession planning.

HR strategy has a set of characteristics:

      • It requires an analysis of the organization and the external environment.
      • It takes longer than one year to implement.
      • It shapes the character and direction of Human Resources Management activities
      • Helps in the deployment and allocation of organizational resources (i.e. money, time, personnel)
      • Is revised on a yearly basis.
      • It incorporates the expert judgment of senior (HR) management.
      • It is number-driven.
      • It results in a specific behavior.

These characteristics give a good overview of what an HR strategy consists of.

Creating an HR strategy takes time. Not only executing on the strategy takes time, but when your strategy is well-defined, it can create a tremendous benefit by aligning HR’s activities with the goals of the organization.
The HR strategy is thus a long-term plan that dictates HR practices throughout the organization.
