Strategic Planning

Strategic HR Planning
Strategic HR planning links HR management directly to the strategic plan of your organization.
Most mid- to large-sized organizations have a strategic plan that guides them in successfully meeting their missions. Organizations routinely complete financial plans to ensure they achieve organizational goals. While workforce plans are not as common, they are just as important.
Even a small organization can develop a strategic plan to guide decisions about the future. Based on its overall strategic plan, your organization can develop a strategic HR plan that will allow you to make HR management decisions now to support the future direction of the organization. Strategic HR planning is also important from a budgetary point of view so that you can factor costs such as recruitment and training into your organization’s operating budget.
Strategic HR management is defined as integrating human resource, management strategies and systems to achieve the overall mission, strategies and success of the firm while meeting the needs of employees and other stakeholders.
Part of strategic planning is defining your organization’s mission, vision and values.
Your strategic HR plan should be aligned with your Mission, Vision and Values.

• Keep up with social, economic, legislative and technological trends that impact on human resources in your            area  and in the sector;
• Remain flexible so that your organization can manage change if the future is different than anticipated.
