Question:

Most organizations need a professional HR department that makes a significant contribution to the organizational strategy.

The best organizational strategy must be aligned to an organization's mission and vision, the culture and values of the organization and must be reflected in the policies, procedures and behaviors of employees and suppliers and supported by training, performance management and rewards systems which recognize contributions to the strategy.

Based on what we have covered so far in this course and information you have from experience and other coursework, I would like to explore this topic in more depth.

In this discussion,

discuss the role which the human resources function should play in the development and implementation of organizational strategy.
compare your (past or present) organization's HR function to the theoretical concept of the HR function's contribution to organizational strategy found in the course material. Consider the mission and values of the organization and the alignment of policies and practices of the organization.
state one-to-two recommendations for the organization to creat a more effective HR function.
