Applying Agile in HR

Image result for org design in hr

Agile is fast becoming the schematic and cultural norm for teams and institutions. As HR becomes more of a strategic lever in the business world, it now is imperative to adapt to the modern landscape of strategy execution.

The annual or traditional, and cyclical features of HR operations  may be transposed into an agile format through:

  • conducting retrospectives,
  • emulating or simulating agile workforce environments,
  • Shifting from behavioural norms of ‘humanistic heroism’ to ‘collaborative and inidividualistic achievement’
  • enhacing employee engagement techniques,
  • employing specialists

The point is, as long as these operational schemas are accurately mapped to HR operating strategy, and ultimately the business operating model and its corresponding strategy, then the process should be systemically and functionally sound.

Having a well designed organisational process arhcitecture will facilitate better data harmonisation with the IT and software platforms that are inevitably part of the modern people managment landscape.
