Question:
Explain HRM’s role in helping the organization reflect the mission and vision statements in practice.
You developed a mission and vision statement for HR. While it is important for HR to have a direction established, this week we will look at the organization’s mission and vision statement and see how HR can be used as a strategic partner for the success of the organization.
In Week 4 you looked at an organization’s Ethical Code of Conduct to see if their actions reflect that Code of Conduct. This assignment will look at the mission and vision statement to assess how all these statements from the organization about who they are fit together.
Human resource development (HRD) is a part of HRM. HRD is often the place where it becomes obvious how the human resources department is supporting the vision and mission of the organization. By defining direction with the vision and mission statements and setting organizational goals, the HR professional can more clearly see where workforce training and development are needed to meet these goals. It should be noted that while workforce training and development is important, it is only one area HR utilizes to link mission, goals, and strategy with practice.
