HR Strategic Planning & Training

The competitive organizational strategy of an organization as a whole becomes the basis for human resource strategic planning. Human resource planning can be described as the process of analyzing and identifying the need for human resources to meet an organization’s mission. At the core of human resource strategic planning is the knowledge gained from scanning the external and internal environments for changes that will impact staffing and recruitment initiatives. When scanning the external environment, human resource professionals evaluate political influences (e.g., government regulation of HR activities such as being in compliance with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or Wagner Act), study economic conditions (e.g., recessions or booms), and analyze societal trends (e.g., millennials entering the workforce). Internally, the reputation of an organization for how employees are treated and the organization’s overall culture are determining factors for many potential employees who are seeking employment. Thus, human resource professionals are tasked with making sure that the organization is attractive to all potential employees.

  • Evaluate the short term and long term implications of internal and external scanning.
  • Discuss the changes you would implement as a human resource professional to your current place of employment to make the organization more attractive for potential employees.
  • What trainings could you provide?
