History of HRM’s Organizational Role
Formerly (HRM):• Administration• Employee relations• BenefitsNow:

![Page 3: Strategic Human Resource Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56816334550346895dd3ba60/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Models of Strategy• Industrial Organization (O/I) Model
• External environment is primary determinant of organizational strategy
• Environment presents threats & opportunities• All competing organizations control or have equal access to resources• Resources are highly mobile between firms• Organizational success is achieved by
• Offering goods & services at lower costs than competitors • Differentiating products to bring premium prices
![Page 4: Strategic Human Resource Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56816334550346895dd3ba60/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Models of Strategy• Resource-Based View
• An organization’s resources & capabilities, create competitive advantage
• Organizations can identify, locate & acquire key valuable resources• Resources are not highly mobile across organizations & once acquired
are retained• Valuable resources are costly to imitate & non-substitutable
![Page 5: Strategic Human Resource Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56816334550346895dd3ba60/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Both are Right…!
• Research provides support for both positions• Acquire resources to support strategy• Determine strategy based on resources
Strategy Human Resource Management addressed both approaches

Core competencies should drive business strategy….
A Core Competency is a deep proficiency that enables a company to deliver unique value to customers.
• It embodies an organization’s collective knowledge.• Its creates sustainable competitive advantage for a company and helps
it branch into a wide variety of related markets. • It’s hard for competitors to copy or procure. • Understanding Core Competencies allows companies to invest in the
strengths that differentiate them and set strategies that unify their entire organization.

Strategic HRM Approach• Facilitates development of high-quality workforce through
focus on types of people & skills needed• Facilitates cost-effective utilization of labor, particularly in
service industries where labor is generally greatest cost• Facilitates planning & assessment of environmental
uncertainty & adaptation of organization to external forces

Challenges: Technological• Computerization– Impacts virtually all aspects of work and life– Provide large amounts of data at great speed to managers– Flexibility e.g. telecommuting
• Automation– Potential benefits include speed, better customer service,
predictability and production quality– Use robots for hazardous or boring jobs
![Page 16: Strategic Human Resource Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56816334550346895dd3ba60/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
