This post is for my Human Resource Management (HRM) course. Human Resource Management includes conducting job analyses, planning personal needs, recruiting the right people for the job, orienting, training, managing wages/salaries and many more things.
I'm going to write about the role of employees in implementing the organizational strategies and reaching goals.
A companys organizational strategy is all the actions the company intends to do in order to achieve long-term goals. These actions bild up a company's strategic plan. Strategic plans are not done in one day. It takes a long time to complete, at least a year. This requires involvement from all of the company levels.
To develop a strategic plan inside a company you need employees who will build and help the company grow. Employees are the core of a company and without them a company is incapable of improvement. Because employees are important for company development and it is necessary for the businesses to take care of them. A company must consider their employees needs and skills for example, strengths, weaknesses, offer proper training for the job and information for the employees. If the company doesn't acknowledge the employees inputs for the company the employees are unable to improve their organizational strategies.
Also the employees usually wish to move ahead inside the company. Employees have goals for their careers same way as companies have goals for growth, development or income among other things. When companies take care of their employees and take them into consideration, the employees will do their best inside the company and may be able to get ahead on their career. This motivates the employees to work better and that helps the company to achieve new levels in development. If the employees are satisfied and motivated to do their best it will surely benefit the company.
I read an article written by Lisa Bodell where she has strategies for employees to do for the development of an organization. Here are a few of the strategies.
1. Get rid of the time waisters. By shedding a few simple tasks, the business will be able to concentrate on more substantial opportunities.
2. Take an outside-in perspective. Proactively clarify what your customers need or want and what can you do to satisfy them.
3. Prioritize. Keep track of what's really important and what's not that necessary.
Some important personal skills that employees should work on for organizational strategy are leadership skills, critical skills and capability. It is important that the business provides the employees some factors such as performance measurement and constant information flow. Without the support from the business the employees are unable to help the organization reach new levels of development and achieve their goals.
