* vs. strategic ones
* Only 23% indicated that HR strategy was tightly integrated
with company strategy

[SHRM Research, N=1310, Aligning HR with Organization Strategy Survey]

in how best to manage the HR system to

1. Biggest Threats often come from OUTSIDE your normal
industry
2. Planning from the base of an ‗Existing‘ organization vs.
zero-based
3. Traditional Analysis (e.g. SWOT) based only on known or
existing assumptions or knowledge
4. Spending too much time in market research and analysis
5. Defining the company from a Product/Service perspective
vs. Category vs. JTBD (e.g. Coca-cola)
6. Wrong Benchmark – already successful vs. what made them
successful
7. Implementing BSC and PMS to improve Business Model and
Strategy
8. New strategy, same people


1. Focuses on leading indicators.
2. Identifies the differences between HR
doables and HR deliverables.

Financial Learning & Growth

“To fulfill the Mission, “What capabilities and tools

1. BSC should be a Thought Process and a Tool not a
Religion (e.g. Excel™ vs. Budgeting)
2. BSC ≠ Appraisal
3. New BSC implementations should start linking with
Budgeting right from the beginning
4. The ‗proper‘ BSC approach should rightly fully be
heavily customized to the organization
5. ‗Strategic Planning‘ trainings should be provided
before ‗BSC‘ trainings
6. Clear definitions for Accountability vs. Impact vs.
Influence vs. Assistance

* How do you know if your HR efforts are
successful?

* How do you measure the effects or results
of these HR, training, and OD efforts?

* How will you know that your efforts and
initiatives have paid off?


* Lagging indicators are outcome measures that
help you gauge your HR progress by examining
the final end result or outcomes of your
collective efforts.

* Use of the ―lagging‖ term reflects the delay or
gap between your actions and a change in the
final end result.

* Characteristics
• Outcome measure.
• Indicates the end result of the system.
• Tells you what happened, not what is happening.
• Less effective at measuring the effects of
specific changes made to the system.


Non-HR Examples;
* Health — heart attack, liver failure, stroke, death!
* Automobile — arrived safely at destination (or not),
engine failure, blown tire, citation from traffic
enforcement, etc.
* Economy — GNP growth, national debt,
unemployment rate, etc.

* HR Examples;
* Employee retention.

Assessing staff perceptions of the internal
alignment of your HR practices — Are they
internally consistent with one another?

Assessing staff perceptions of the external
alignment of your HR practices:
To what extent do your HR deliverables enable
the company’s performance drivers and strategic
objectives? To what extent do your HR practices
enable/support your HR deliverables?

-100 = at cross

0 = little or no effect
