White Paper

We understand that your time is precious . This precious time if put to focussed business deliverables shall give you manifold returns, however, if the same time is spent on managing –your organizations People related matters rather than reviewing it and giving overview then possibly one of the two things is happening :
1. Either, you do not have a fully functional HR department or
2. The HR Department is not aligned to your business goals.
Just like Finance Department is not complete by having a few accounts people similarly there are various activities needed to be done in an HR department and having just a coordinator may not serve the purpose .
The key sub functions in any HR department include :
a. Talent Acquisition : This includes search and selection
b. Talent Management : This includes various activities of a full scale PMS System
c. Talent Development : This includes various activities of training and capability building
d. Talent Engagement : This includes various activities of Employee Engagement
e. HRMIS : Maintaining the complete data base and converting it into various Decision Making points and Analysis for Management
At a minimum 1 specialist member in each of the five verticals is required for a full flegdedHR Department . Besides, these five one HR Head is essential to manage them . Medium and Small Organisations despite wanting to get the full benefit of a HR department are at times not ready to invest so heavily at the early stage of the business. Hence, a Coordinator is retained assuming that this one or two person army will suffice for the whole department . In the process the Organisation misses out on the best practices needed at an early stage and pays for it later on in the form of rework, productivity loss attrition, untrained or under developed employees, succession planning issues etc .
