  1. Strategy and HumanResources Planning The Challenges of Human Resources Management

  2. Strategic Planning and Human Resources • Strategic Planning • Procedures for making decisions about the organization’s long-term goals and strategies • Strategy formulation: the process of deciding on a strategic direction by defining an organization’s mission and goals and its SWOTs • The process of devising structures and allocating resources to enact the strategy a company has choses • Strategy implementation: plans are enacted and put into place • Human Resources Planning (HRP) • Process of anticipating and making provision for the movement (flow) of people into, within, and out of an organization.

  3. Why Strategic Planning Is ImportantTo All Managers • The firm’s strategic plan guides much of what is done by all to accomplish organizational goals. • Decisions made by managers depend on the goals set at each organizational level in support of higher level goals.

  4. Strategic Planning Process • Strategic Human Resources Management (SHRM) • The pattern of human resources deployments and activities that enable an organization to achieve its strategic goals • Strategy formulation —providing input as to what is possible given the types and numbers of people available. • Strategy implementation —making primary resource allocation decisions about structure, processes, and human resources.

  5. Step One: Mission, Vision, and Values • Mission • The basic purpose of the organization as well as its scope of operations • Strategic Vision • A statement about where the company is going and what it can become in the future; clarifies the long-term direction of the company and its strategic intent • Core Values • The strong and enduring beliefs and principles that the company uses as a foundation for its decisions

  9. Type of Strategy at Each Company Level

  10. Environmental Analysis • Environmental Scanning • The systematic monitoring of the major external forces influencing the organization. • Economic factors: general, regional, and global conditions • Industry and competitive trends: new processes, services, and innovations • Technological changes: robotics and office automation • Government and legislative issues: laws and administrative rulings • Social concerns: child care and educational priorities • Demographic and labor market trends: age, composition, literacy, and immigration

  16. Linking Strategic Planning and HRP • Strategic Analysis • What human resources are needed and what are available? • Strategic Formulation • What is required and necessary in support of human resources? • Strategic Implementation • How will the human resources be allocated?

  19. The Human Resources Planning Process

  20. 10 Things Managers Should Avoid When Supervising Temporary/Contingent Employees • Treat the temporary employee as if the temp agency is in fact his or her employer • DO NOT

  21. Quantitative Approach: Trend Analysis • Forecasting labor demand based on an organizational index such as sales: • Select a business factor that best predicts human resources needs. • Plot the business factor in relation to the number of employees to determine the labor productivity ratio. • Compute the productivity ratio for the past five years. • Calculate human resources demand by multiplying the business factor by the productivity ratio. • Project human resources demand out to the target year(s).

  25. Forecasting the Supply of Employees: Internal Labor Supply • Staffing Tables • Markov Analysis • Skill Inventories • Replacement Charts • Succession Planning

  26. Forecasting the Supply of Employees: Internal Labor Supply

  27. Internal Demand Forecasting Tools • Skill Inventories • Files of personnel education, experience, interests, skills, etc., that allow managers to quickly match job openings with employee backgrounds. • Replacement Charts • Listings of current jobholders and persons who are potential replacements if an opening occurs. • Succession Planning • The process of identifying, developing, and tracking key individuals for executive positions.

Internal Demand Forecasting Tools • Skill Inventories • Files of personnel education, experience, interests, skills, etc., that allow managers to quickly match job openings with employee backgrounds. • Replacement Charts • Listings of current jobholders and persons who are potential replacements if an opening occurs. • Succession Planning • The process of identifying, developing, and tracking key individuals for executive positions.

  30. Calculating employee Turnover and Absenteeism

  31. Employee Turnover Rates • Computing Turnover Rates (for a month): • The U.S. Department of Labor suggests the following formula for computing turnover rates: Thus, if there were 25 separations during a month and the total number of employees at mid month was 500, the turnover rate would be: 25/500 X 100 = 5%

  32. How would you determine annualized turnover?

Key Terms Balanced Scorecard (BSC) benchmarking core capabilities core values cultural audits environmental scanning human capital readiness human resources planning (HRP) management forecasts Markov analysis mission organizational capability replacement charts skill inventories staffing tables strategic human resources management (SHRM) strategic planning strategic vision succession planning SWOT analysis trend analysis value creation

  34. Chapter 2 - Learning Outcomes

  35. Employee Turnover Rates (cont’d) • Computing Turnover Rates (cont’d): • Another method of computing the turnover rate is one that reflects only the avoidable separations (S). This rate is computed by subtracting unavoidable separations (US) from all separations. The formula for this method is as follows: where M represents the total number of employees at mid month. For example, if there were 25 separations during a month, 5 of which were US, and the total number of employees at mid month (M) was 500, the turnover rate would be:

  42. Step Four: Formulating Strategy • Strategy Formulation • Moving from simple analysis to devising a coherent course of action. • SWOT analysis • A comparison of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for strategy formulation purposes. • Use the strengths of the organization to capitalize on opportunities, counteract threats, and alleviate internal weaknesses.
