Chapter 2 – Aligning HR with Strategy Strategic Human Resources Planning, 5e

CHAPTER 2
Aligning HR with Strategy

Chapter Learning Outcomes

After reading this chapter, you should be able to:

• Understand the importance of strategic HR planning.


• Identify the risks associated with not planning.
• Discuss approaches to linking strategy and HR, including the barriers to becoming a
strategic partner.
• List the characteristics of an effective HR strategy.

Chapter Summary

Strategic HRM is a set of distinct but interrelated philosophies, policies, and practices with the
goal of enabling the organization to achieve its strategy. HR strategy is embedded in theories of
the resource-based view of the firm, the behavioural perspective, and the human capital
approach. By involving HR in the discussion of strategic policies, an organization has a better
chance of being effective in the implementation of these policies. There are various approaches
to linking HRM strategies to organizational strategies. We can start with the corporate strategy
that leads to the HR strategy, or start with the HR competencies that lead to business strategy, or
use a blend of the interrelationship of the HR strategy and the corporate strategy. Aligning HR
strategy with the corporate strategy and with other functional strategies is important.

management, where the focus was on its

need for lower costs led HR departments to be
outsourced. However, outsourcing reduced
costs but created a disconnect with an
organization’s strategy and best practices.
Eventually, employees were viewed as human
capital who could contribute to competitive
advantage.

and labour.

Human capital refers to the collective sum of


the attributes, experience, knowledge, and
commitment that employees choose to invest
in their work. The textbook authors are
suggesting an approach to HR planning that
goes beyond the traditional approach to supply
and demand. The authors call for an HR
strategy that tailors human resource policies
and practices to the organizational needs of the
future.

them to do so.
