Both have a concern regarding people’s critical procedures due to having dissimilar areas of concentration inside of the organization. Human Resource management deals with short term issues, employees, salary, benefits, hiring, enforcing of company policies, contracts, work with management to develop long-term strategies for the growth of the organization. The H.R. management also reviews performance and conduct interviews that pertain to organizational development of implemented long term strategies. Examples such as what are the businesses goals and expectations of achieving them along with leadership, training and development. Business maintenance actually is what business management leans more towards in order to maintain and keep the organization running without issues and remain unblemished. The performance and renewals of a business is what organizational development aims for in order to observe and monitor the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of the company’s executions. However, both departments do not always function and work collectively from time to time. Organizational behavior is the behavior which is expected of individuals within the organization.

...A CLOSE ALIGNMENT OF ORGANIZATION STRATEGY WITH HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT (HRD), AS A WAY TO IMPROVE INDIVIDUAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE There is increased need of human resources development to meet today’s organizations’ needs, which are ever changing due to globalization that has resulted into more competition in the global markets (Garavan, Heraty, & Barnicle, 2002). According to Hyland (2005), human resource development (HRD) refers to the process of enhancing human resource capability through strategies and development, organization development and career development in order to boost their performance, which in turn boosts an organization’s performance. Therefore, HRD functions can be described as a set of organized and systematic activities, which are planned to provide opportunities to an organization’s members to acquire skills necessary for meeting their present and future job requirements (Chien-Chi & Gary, 2008). In today’s competitive markets and ever changing external environmental factors, HRD has become of great importance since it ensures productive and successful management (Du Plessis, Nel, Struthers, Robins, & Williams, 2007). Many organizations have therefore adopted the strategy of integrating their organization’s strategy into their HRD functions (Schuler, 1992), in addressing the changing external environment. Hyland defines organizational strategy as a plan of activities that an organization needs to undertake in order to meet...

...1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background to the Study The effect of training and manpower development on employee’s productivity and organization performance has attracted considerable interest in the analytical and empirical literature. On the whole, human resources management theory has paid considerable attention to this debate; however, the theoretical predictions are ambiguous. Depending on their underlying assumptions, some approaches predict that the performance of an organization is necessarily based on innovative labour force, technology, quality management, and customer satisfaction; while others see training as a tool in the hands of human resources managers to activate and empower the productive base of an organization (Dhamodharan, 2010). Barron and Hagerty (2001) asserted that employee training and manpower development is very vital to job productivity and organization performance, since the formal educational system does not adequately provide specific job skills for a position in a particular organization. While, few individuals may have the requisite skills, knowledge, abilities and competencies needed to fit into a specific job function, some others may require extensive training to acquire the necessary skills to be able to fit in a specific job function and also make significant contribution to the organization’s performance. Guest (2007) asserted that human capital theory provides evidence which indicates that training and education raises the productivity of workers...

...of contribution of the human resource practices to the bottom line of the organization. In line with this, researchers have conducted numerous studies to demonstrate the positive association between HR and performance and provide encouragement to the HR professionals with their empirical results. The present paper makes a critical analysis of such literature and adds value to the concept. Although such strong relationship exists, the mediating or intervening variable in the process was not dealt with. This review based work identifies the intervening variable and provides a convincing evidence and explanation to the linkage process. The theoretical background for a new direction in the HR-performance linkage research is put forth to the researchers associated in this field. Keywords: Human Resource Practices, Organizational Performance, Organizational Commitment. 1. Introduction Today across the globe, it is widely accepted that organization success depends on its people. It is clear that human capital and intellect drive business growth.

If HR wants to play a strategic role in organizations it needs to develop its ability to measure how human capital decisions affect...

...According to Megginson et al (2003) human resource development is the study and practice of increasing the learning capacity of individuals, groups and organizations through the development and application of learning interventions for the purpose of optimizing human and organizational growth effectiveness. Employee resourcing is concerned with the range of methods and approaches used by employers in resourcing their organizations in such a way as to enable them to meet their key goals. It therefore involves staffing that is recruitment, selection, retension and dismissal, performance that is appraisal and management of performance administration that is policy development, procedural development, documentation and change management. Effective individual learning as critical if employees are to acquire the knowledge and skills needed to support the organization’s business objectives and delivery targets through employee resourcing. Human resource development contributes significantly in retaining and motivation employees such that they meet organizational goals. According to Armstrong (2002) recruitment flexibility can provide a significant competitive advantage for organizations. Recruiting flexible employee prepared for the future change and able to contribute rather than conform. Rather than aiming for rigid skills and ability profile, and gullible personalities, recruit people who are versatile and adoptable. This reflect a long term strategy, geared towards realizing talent...

...533-Human Resource in Management Dr. Andrew McLeod May 15, 2016 Human Resource Organization Design An efficiently run human resources department can provide an organization with structure and the ability to meet business needs through managing the organization’s most valuable resources—its employees. This internally coherent system, or a business within a business, must be aligned with the mission and objectives of the organization (Becker & Huselid, 1999). Therefore, the human resources department must work closely with management and understand the organization’s goals. The human resource department is responsible for analyzing the entire organization so it can propose proper adjustments to management for increased efficiency, production, and financial success (Ulrich, Younger, & Brockbank, 2008). The Typical Human Resource Department While the structure of the human resources department might vary from organization to organization, there are six essential functions of any human resources department no matter how big or small: recruitment, safety, employee relations, compensation and benefits, compliance, and training and development (Mayhew, 2016). Human Resources Director The Human Resources Director influences and administers the overall provision of the Human Resources Department. This includes but is not limited to services, policies, and programs for the entire company. Some of the roles and responsibilities of the Human Resources Director...
