Strategic HR

It is often found in smaller organisations that there is a lack of clarity about what HR does. One reason for this is that there is usually no Board representation for HR and therefore HR activities are not reflecting the organisation’s needs. Administration tasks also tend to swamp HR which leaves little time for strategy formulation. 


P3PM can take a proactive role in defining your HR strategy. This may include assessing your existing function and persons within it against a Best Practice Framework and providing a detailed roadmap for improvement supporting a greater investment in HR.

By using the Human Audit Framework we will also ensure that the business focuses on the recruitment of strategic expertise where required to deliver the business future objectives and competitive edge.

We will provide outsourced board representation for HR ensuring that the future direction and vision for HR is linked with HR delivery to business objectives. The strategy development will be highly dependent on the organisation’s context and situation.

When considering the strategic impact of any HR activity in your organisation consider the following questions. For example when considering Recruitment and Selection:

Does this activity currently add to the value of our organisation, or reduce it? And how do we know?

Do we need to do this activity in a way that’s specific to us because of our operating business model?

Does this activity need to be specialised in order to fit with our culture and values?

If our competitors knew how we did this, would it matter?

Does this activity contribute to building the core competence of our organisation?
