Question:

Analyze page 5 (from the book), and tell me what's wrong with it.

Answer:

During the analysis of the "Strategic HRM practices" written by writers: 'Noe, Hollenbeck, Gerhart and Wright' - leading to company performance there were some items found to be missing in regards to HRM.

1)The most important item missing are the Mission and the Vision of the company.

Mission - represents the company's short term goals and objectives.

Vision - represents the company's long term goals and objectives. Like for example where the company wants to go and what it wants to be in the next 10 years.

Mission of a company always changes, and is suspectible to modifications. But the vision of a company remains the same.

2) The Company needs to know if the employees are willing and most importantly happy to work.

For example if an employee is selected for a hazardous job (say for example with high salary) like work in Nulcear power plant project for or a Space agency.

Because money is not important factor all the time.

The most important thing to know is if he or she is happy & willing to take the risk of their lives - thinking that if it turns out to be successfull, he or she will be a super star or an icon to be stamped in the pages of the history book.

This all comes down probably to motivation.

3) The HR also needs to find out if these employees are suitable and willing to perform "Multiple-role-jobs".

So in times of crisis the company can go ahead forward.

4)Is the HR ready to implement changes & understand the mid set of employees, (MAKE EMPLOYEES EXCITING) in the work place environment and modifications of job responsibilities for employees. This is because most employees are resistant to change.

5)Adequate no of HR personels needed to help all employees in a corporation.
