Evaluating your HR Function

The Master Class in HR Strategy training course begins by positioning human resources within the wider organisational strategy, considering the strategic role of the function and the alignment of people priorities with business direction. The agenda then moves into HR strategy development and workforce planning, covering the assessment of future staffing requirements and the connection between business plans and people plans. Related themes include strategic resourcing, recruitment, succession planning and talent management, establishing a progression from organisational context to the management of workforce capability.

The course subsequently addresses performance management and reward, linking objectives, performance assessment and recognition with broader strategic priorities. It then considers employee engagement, retention and employee relations, including the importance of communication and the employment relationship in sustaining workforce commitment. The concluding topics focus on implementing and reviewing HR strategy, measuring the function’s contribution and using relevant measures to evaluate progress. Across these later stages, the agenda connects individual performance and employee commitment with the monitoring and continuing development of strategic HR plans.
