Staffing In the Organization

1. What is the purpose of human resource management? What are its essential
aspects?
The purpose of human resource management is to; first, make the capacity of the organization
as efficient as possible; second, achieve and understand the laws and ethics to meet the organization’s
goals; third, focus on the assets that bring benefits and advantages; fourth, fulfill and satisfy the needs
of the staffs or employees; and fifth, manage the changes or transformation that will be on the way.
Some of the essential aspects of HRM are the workplace, designs and the workflow of it, the great
authority and partnership, the policies and procedures, especially the working conditions, and the
employees’ good health and well-being.

2. How do the various aspects of human resource management contribute to


ensuring the efficiency and effectiveness of an organization?
The essential aspects of human resource management contribute to ensuring the efficiency and
effectiveness of an organization by; first, keeping the firm’s goals intact; second, identifying the
employees’ skills and knowledge; third, letting the people acquire behaviors that will support the aims of
the organization; fourth, driving the profits to business; and fifth, making the work processes secure to
success. These grounds help HRM to achieve not just the organizational objectives, but the personal one
as well. Even so, this is a continuous process, all these should be done accordingly to maintain the
developments, power, and the value of the organization.

3. In what way do the two aspects of human capital management (talent and
knowledge management) complement each other?
The two aspects of human capital management complement each other by the way the talent
management helps with recruiting, developing and engaging the people who can improve on the
information and processes involved, while the knowledge management helps with recording and sharing
information and processes that exist within the organization. The former aspect requires resources to
execute and deploy the strategies in which people should assess skills and thorough training for them to
get credentials, while the latter requires the management of the database, distribution of the internal
processes and resources, and utilization of it thereafter. They both have a relation with each other
because the knowledge management can be a great instrument for the talent management.
