Text: Garey, R. W. (2011). Business literacy survival guide for HR professionals. Alexandria, VA: Society for Human Resource Management.Addressing Problems
John Steinbeck said, “The best laid plans of mice and men do often go awry.” As the Human Resources Department/Division works with the C-suite to finalize an organizational strategy-driven Human Resources Operating Plan, complications and difficulties may intrude. It is important to plan how to address problems that may occur as your Annual Human Resources Operating Plan is deployed and operationalized.
For this Discussion, review this week’s Learning Resources. Consider the types of problems that might occur in the day-to-day operations at all levels.
Post by Day 3 the top two implementation problems that you anticipate may need to be addressed during the operationalization or launching of your Annual Human Resources Operating Plan (AHROP). Briefly explain what you would include in an AHROP to address each of the problems you identified to avoid any obstacles during the implementation.
Annual Operating Plan for HR
2015
Annual HR Operating Plan Guidelines
Background and Context for Writing the AHROP- The annual HR operating plan is a plan for the organization that HR writes based on HR expertise, to support its business direction. It is not a plan for running the HR department and its staff. Strategic planning and operational planning involve two different types of thinking. Strategic decisions are forward thinking, directional, and over-arching. They guide everything that the organization is doing for a particular timeframe. Operational decisions, on the other hand, primarily affect the day-to-day implementation of strategic decisions. While strategic decisions usually have longer-term implications, operational decisions usually have immediate (one year or less than one year) implications.
Strategic Planning
· Views future as unpredictable
· Views planning as a continuous process
· Expects new trends, surprises and changes
· Considers a range of possible futures & emphasizes strategy development based on assessment of the organization's internal (strength and weaknesses) and external (opportunities and threats) environment.
· Asks: Based on our current understanding of environment, are we doing the right thing? How can we best use our resources to achieve or mission? What are our sources of sustainable competitive advantage?
Operational Planning
· Views future as something that needs to be implemented now
· Focuses on setting short-term (less than one year) objectives
· Assumes much more detailed planning regarding who and how activities will be accomplished
· Asks: What do we need to be doing for the upcoming year/immediately to best accomplish our mission, guided by current business objectives and strategies
Strategic planning provides the vision, direction and goals for the organization, but operational planning translates that organizational strategy into the everyday execu ...
