10 things hr transformationTRANSCRIPT
1 O Things I HR Transformation is about unravelling the mysteries of HR Transformation - giving insight to the myriad of components included in HR strategy and transformation discussions. Organisations have different expectations of Human Resources, but HR itself is finding it difficult to adapt and provide direction. There is good reason for this, given that HR has remained largely inwardly focussed and showing marginal increases in its own performance.
How do we help you on your journey of HR success?
HR Transformation initially focused on making HR operations more efficient and effective through process standardisation and
transactional technology usage. The next generation of HR Transformation is more tightly linked to corporate strategy and creating business value through HR services that address a
company's most pressing strategic challenges.
The HR "wake up call" is being driven by a number of key factors - all of which are directed towards building or strengthening the strategic partnership role.
• Overall business is transforming -HR is an important cog
• Pressure to gain the" People Competitiveness" advantage
• Questionable HR service delivery • HR's return on investment • Leadership changes in HR • Lack of perceivea HR value to t he
organisation • Regulatory changes • Global demands
Current research indicates that HR has three key focus areas, however the level of success in these areas varies considerably.
• HR Services o Providing the traditional "Hire-to-retire"
HR services to line management and employees. The level of "HR maturity" influences the effectiveness of these services
• Transactional execution o HR will always be transactional in nature.
Record keeping is genera lly good, but report ing and ana lysis is genera lly poor
• Partnering o Line partnering and strategic partnering
has been on the cards for a number of years. HR tends to rate poorly in this area.
Building the strategic Human Capital function requires a broader focus of attention.
• HR strategy • Talent management • Leadership development • Change management • Strategic Workforce planning • Merger & acquisition • New market penetration • Regulatory & governance • Global mobility & security • Programme management
An analysis of the strengths of HR departments shows alignment with the current focus areas.
• People skills o HR is still regarded as the custodian of
people matters in organisations, and are regarded as competent in dealing with employee relationship matters
• Interviewing and assessment o HR is skilled in assessing applicants and
conducting applicable assessments - the typical "psychology" profile of HR is st ill very prevalent
• Functional services o HR provides reasonable services in t he Hire
to-ret ire group of activities
• Record keeping o Generally good manual recording systems
In order for HR to fulfil its new mandate, there are a number of areas that need focus and development.
• Business strategy • Data analysis and reporting • Organisational assessment • Organisational design • Cost analysis • Measurement • Cross functional skills • Financial acumen • Vendor management • Technology awareness • Social network impacts
If HR is going to transform then it needs to address tne critical hurdles it faces.
• Capability of line management • Skills within HR departments • Business perception of HR's
\\value" • Attitude of line • HR structures and reporting lines • Business leadership • Business desire for HR strategic
activity • Effective use of technology • Understanding difference
between 'HR Best Practice' and 'HR Maturity'
The new transformed HR model has 4 pillars that support the organisation.
• Customers o Customer services is core to HR, but the
target is changing to include line cus1omers ana vendors
• Process o Research indicates that< 55% of HR
departments that have redesigned processes are seeing the benellt s -Why?
• Technology o Technologies greatest use in HR st ill
remains access to policies & procedures. Less t hat 35% of organisations leverage employee and management self service or use technology strateg ica lly
• Structure o What model best suites the objectives of
the business - 60% of HR departments are using SS and CO E's, but lower desire to grow programme specialist and separation of CHRO and HR controller positions
Traditionally HR has been measured in ways that are not aligned to support a strategic focus - you need measures that shows HR's direct contribution to the business objectives.
• Non Strategic measures typically used by HR departments o HR Cost o HR/ Staff ratio o Customer Satisfaction o HR programme effectiveness o Line effectiveness in dealing with HR
matters
Cleaning up the HR house will require focus in the following areas.
• HR functional leadership • Skills in HR • Value of HR to business • Business leadership • Technology • Radical process redesign • Measurement • Accountabil ity
