Key Steps in Strategic HR Management

SNATIKA
Published in : Human Resources . 13 Min Read . 1 year ago

Nowadays, organisational success directly depends on strategic human resource (HR) management. Strategic HR management involves aligning HR strategies with an organisation's overall business strategy to effectively manage the workforce and achieve organisational goals. The process involves analysing the business strategy, conducting a workforce analysis, developing HR strategies, implementing those strategies, measuring and evaluating HR performance, and continuously improving HR processes. Each step is crucial to achieving success in strategic HR management, and failure to prioritise any of these steps can result in negative consequences for an organisation. This blog will provide an overview of the key steps involved in strategic HR management.

Key Steps in Strategic HR Management

Step 1: Analyse the Business Strategy

This step involves understanding the organisation's mission, vision, strategic goals, and competitive advantage, as well as assessing the organisation's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT). To begin, an organisation must understand its mission and vision. The mission statement outlines the organisation's purpose and what it hopes to achieve, while the vision statement defines the organisation's long-term goals and aspirations. By understanding these statements, an organisation can align its HR strategies with its overall purpose and goals.

 

Next, identify its strategic goals and objectives. This involves determining what it hopes to achieve in the short and long terms. Consider both internal and external factors like market trends, customer demands, and competition when setting strategic goals. Then determine the organisation's competitive advantage. Identify what sets the organisation apart from its competitors and how the organisation can leverage this advantage to achieve its strategic goals.

 

Finally, the organisation should conduct a SWOT analysis. Assessing the organisation's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats provides an overview of the organisation's current position. Thus, the organisation can identify potential opportunities for growth and areas of weakness that require attention. For example, if the SWOT analysis reveals that the company's turnover rate is high, the HR department can develop retention strategies that align with the organisation's strategic goals. In this case, the HR department can implement training programmes to help employees develop new skills and advance their careers within the organisation, increasing employee retention.

Step 2: Conduct a Workforce Analysis

The second step involves identifying the demographics, skills, competencies, capacity, and capability of the workforce, as well as workforce gaps and needs. To begin, an organisation must identify its workforce demographics. This includes information like age, gender, education, experience, and job function. With this understanding of the workforce demographics, HR can develop HR strategies that align with the needs and goals of the workforce. Next, HR must analyse the skills and competencies of the workforce, like the skills and knowledge required to perform various job functions, as well as evaluate the current skills and competencies of the workforce. In this way, HRs can develop training programmes and professional development opportunities to improve the workforce's skills and competencies.

 

After these, the organisation must determine its workforce's capacity and capability. This involves identifying the number of employees required to achieve the organisation's strategic goals and evaluating whether the workforce can meet these requirements. Thus, the HR department can make informed decisions regarding recruitment, training, and performance management. They should also identify workforce gaps and needs. Identify areas where the workforce may lack the necessary skills or knowledge to perform job functions effectively. By identifying these gaps, an organisation can develop HR strategies to address them, like providing training or hiring new employees with the required skills.

 

Conducting a workforce analysis is critical to the success of strategic HR management. By understanding the workforce demographics, skills, competencies, capacity, and capability, an organisation can develop HR strategies that align with the needs and goals of the workforce. It also helps the organisation identify potential areas for improvement and develop strategies to address them. Moreover, if the workforce analysis identifies a need for more employees with specialised skills like data analysis or software development, the HR department can develop recruitment strategies that target individuals with these skills. This can help the organisation build a more diverse and skilled workforce that can support its strategic goals (Source: AIHR).

Step 3: Develop HR Strategies.

The third step is to develop HR strategies based on the findings of the business strategy analysis and workforce analysis. The HR strategies developed should support the organisation's overall strategic goals, including increasing efficiency, improving productivity, and enhancing employee engagement and retention. There are several key factors to consider when developing HR strategies. These include recruitment and retention, employee development and training, compensation and benefits, performance management, and diversity and inclusion.

 

According to Zippia, 47% of HR teams report that employee retention and turnover is their biggest challenge. Recruitment and retention strategies focus on attracting and retaining the right talent for the organisation. This includes developing job descriptions that accurately reflect the skills and competencies required for the position, creating an employer brand that appeals to potential candidates, and developing recruitment strategies that target diverse candidates. Retention strategies include offering competitive compensation and benefits packages, providing professional development opportunities, and fostering a positive work environment.

 

Employee development and training strategies focus on improving the skills and competencies of the existing workforce. This includes developing training programmes that align with the organisation's strategic goals and providing opportunities for employees to develop their skills and advance their careers. It also involves identifying areas where employees need additional training and developing strategies to address those needs. According to a study by Deloitte, nearly 80% of executives rated employee experience very important (42%) or important (38%), but only 22% reported that their companies were excellent at building a differentiated employee experience.

 

According to Pew Research, the majority of workers who quit a job in 2021 cite low income (63%), insufficient possibilities for development (63%), and feeling disrespected at work (57%) as reasons for leaving. Compensation and benefits strategies focus on developing compensation and benefits packages that are competitive and aligned with the organisation's overall strategic goals. This includes determining the appropriate salary range for each position, developing a benefits package that meets the needs of the workforce, and evaluating compensation and benefits packages regularly to ensure they remain competitive.

 

Performance management strategies focus on ensuring that employees are meeting the organisation's expectations and goals. This includes developing performance metrics that align with the organisation's strategic goals, providing regular feedback and coaching to employees, and developing strategies to address performance issues as they arise.

 

Companies with a diverse workforce are 15-35% more likely to have higher than average financial returns (Source: Zippia). Diversity and inclusion strategies focus on creating a diverse and inclusive workforce that reflects the community and the organisation's customer base. This includes developing policies and procedures that promote diversity and inclusion, providing diversity and inclusion training to employees, and developing recruitment and retention strategies that target diverse candidates.

 

Once the HR strategies have been developed, HR must communicate them to the workforce and ensure that they are aligned with the organisation's overall strategic goals. This includes developing a communication plan that outlines the HR strategies, the rationale behind them, and the expected outcomes. It also involves engaging with employees and other stakeholders to gather feedback and ensure that the strategies are implemented effectively. Additionally, if the workforce analysis reveals a need for more diversity and inclusion, the HR department can develop recruitment and retention strategies that target diverse candidates, provide diversity and inclusion training to employees, and develop policies and procedures that promote diversity and inclusion.

Step 4: Implement HR Strategies

Once HR strategies have been developed, the next step in strategic HR management is to implement them effectively. The implementation of HR strategies is a critical stage in the process, as it involves putting the plans into action and monitoring their effectiveness. There are several key steps to follow when implementing HR strategies. These include developing an implementation plan, providing training and support to employees, monitoring progress, and making adjustments as necessary. The first step in implementing HR strategies is to develop an implementation plan. This plan should outline the steps needed to put the HR strategies into action, including identifying the resources needed, setting timelines and milestones, and identifying key stakeholders who will be involved in the implementation process. The implementation plan should also include a communication plan that outlines how the HR strategies will be communicated to the workforce and other stakeholders.

 

The second step is to provide training and support to employees. This includes providing training on the new policies and procedures, providing coaching and feedback, and providing access to resources that employees need to implement the new strategies effectively. It's also essential to communicate the benefits of the new strategies to employees and address any concerns they may have. In a survey by Lorman, nearly 59% of employees claimed they had no workplace training and that most of their skills were self-taught. 74% of workers were willing to learn new skills or re-train to remain employable. The third step is to monitor progress and make adjustments as necessary. This involves tracking progress against the implementation plan, gathering feedback from employees, and making adjustments to the strategies as necessary. It's also essential to measure the effectiveness of the new strategies and use the data to make informed decisions about future HR initiatives.

 

Effective implementation of HR strategies can lead to several benefits. These include increased employee engagement and retention, improved productivity and efficiency, enhanced customer satisfaction, and improved financial performance. The implementation of HR strategies that support the organisation's strategic goals can lead to the organisation achieving long-term success and remaining competitive in the marketplace. However, implementing HR strategies can also pose several challenges. One of the most significant challenges is resistance from employees or managers who may be resistant to change. In this case, it's essential to communicate the benefits of the new strategies and address any concerns employees may have. Another challenge is ensuring that the new strategies are aligned with the organisation's culture and values. It's important to ensure that the new strategies are consistent with the organisation's overall mission and vision.

Step 5: Measure and Evaluate HR Performance

This step involves assessing the effectiveness of the HR strategies implemented in the previous steps and determining whether they have achieved the desired outcomes. Ensure that the HR strategies are aligned with the organisation's strategic goals and that they continue to contribute to the organisation's success. There are several key steps to follow when measuring and evaluating HR performance. These include establishing metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs), collecting and analysing data, interpreting the results, and making informed decisions about future HR initiatives. Metrics are specific measures that are used to track and assess the effectiveness of HR strategies. KPIs are specific targets that are set for each metric. Examples of HR metrics and KPIs include employee turnover rate, employee engagement levels, and time-to-hire (Source: Wikipedia).

 

The second step is to collect and analyse the data. This involves gathering data on the metrics and KPIs established in the first step and analysing it to determine whether the HR strategies are achieving the desired outcomes. The data can be collected through a variety of methods, including surveys, interviews, and focus groups. The third step is to interpret the results. This involves analysing the data collected in the second step and interpreting it to determine whether the HR strategies are effective. The interpretation of the data provides valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the HR strategies and can identify areas for improvement. The fourth step is to make informed decisions about future HR initiatives based on the results of the previous steps. These decisions include making adjustments to the current HR strategies, developing new HR strategies, or discontinuing ineffective strategies.

 

Measuring and evaluating HR performance can lead to several benefits for an organisation. These include identifying areas for improvement, making informed decisions about future HR initiatives, and demonstrating the value of the HR department to senior management. Thus, the HR department can secure additional resources and support from senior management, which can contribute to the long-term success of the organisation. However, measuring and evaluating HR performance can also pose several challenges. One of the most significant challenges is collecting and analysing data effectively. The data collected must be accurate, relevant, and reliable. Another challenge is interpreting the results of the data analysis effectively. It's important to have the necessary expertise and knowledge to interpret the data correctly.

Step 6: Continuous Improvement

Continuous improvement involves a cycle of assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating HR strategies to continually improve organisational performance. This step ensures that the organisation's HR strategies remain relevant, effective, and aligned with the organisation's overall goals and objectives. The Lorman Survey found that 74% of surveyed employees feel they aren't reaching their full potential at work due to a lack of development opportunities. The continuous improvement process involves several key steps. The first step is to assess the organisation's current HR strategies and processes. This involves analysing the effectiveness of the current HR strategies and processes and identifying areas for improvement. It is conducted through surveys, focus groups, and interviews. The second step is to plan improvements to the current HR strategies and processes. This involves developing a plan that outlines specific changes to be made to the current HR strategies and processes. The plan should be based on the results of the assessment conducted in the first step and should be aligned with the organisation's goals.

 

The third step is to implement the planned improvements. This involves putting the plan into action by implementing the identified changes to HR strategies and processes. The changes must be communicated effectively to all employees with the necessary training or support. The fourth step is to evaluate the effectiveness of the implemented changes. This involves measuring and analysing the impact of the implemented changes on the organisation's HR strategies and processes. It should be conducted using the same metrics and KPIs established in Step 5 to ensure consistency in the assessment. Based on the results of the evaluation, the fifth step is to make further improvements to the HR strategies and processes. This involves analysing the evaluation results and identifying areas where additional improvements can be made. The cycle of continuous improvement then begins again with a new assessment of the HR strategies and processes.

 

Continuous improvement can lead to several benefits for an organisation. These include improved HR strategies and processes, increased employee engagement and retention, and enhanced organisational performance. By continually assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating HR strategies, the organisation can stay ahead of the competition and achieve long-term success. On the flip side, one of the most significant challenges is ensuring that the changes implemented are aligned with the organisation's overall goals and objectives. Another challenge is ensuring that the changes are communicated effectively to all employees and that any necessary training or support is provided.
