Vision for People and Organisation
I believe the HR function
should be judged not for what it does but what it delivers.
· At its primacy, I believe that the People manager must own
the people experience(s) of it team, and be accountable for audit as part of
the manager’s engagement index. He should be held accountable for:
o Hiring correctly for roles, using competency based
process.
o Performance management review
o Performance dialogues and building work plans
o align rewards and recognition accordingly
o enable succession planning and enrich careers.
o support as a coach and mentor
o be the ‘culture’ for the direct report from hire to
retire.
The HR function must
facilitate but remove itself from the middle.
· I believe that all stakeholders should be empowered
most of all the employee himself. Our
employees bring human capital each day to work.
o Firstly, a right for self-service. (ESS)
o Be focused on deliverables, not job descriptions
o A right to be recognised for being an individual,
recognized for the expertise he/she brings.
o To enjoy an engaged meaningful contribution that is
mutually satisfying and taps into his personal potential
o A workplace that is inclusive, diverse and tolerates
similarities and differences. That
discriminates only on the basis of performance.
· I believe that we must provide analytics and tools for
collaboration, social learning, and big data to enable organisational learning and teaming. This to be enable on the move
– ‘taps instead of clicks’.
In summary, I believe that we
must empower the lives of our own
stakeholders. And verily, it starts from home
– at the workplace itself.
I believe our role in HR is to:
· Clearly define with leaders the Business Strategy
· Build the case for People and Organization capability
· Create a strategy roadmap ~for the three years ahead
· Identify the HR ‘deliverables’
· Align the Design and Architecture (TU/BU) for the OU
initiatives
· Design Metrics for HR measurement.
· Embed ‘performance by measure’
· Create a highly engaged workforce by embedding the
three values – personal, re-imagine and restless in all systems, processes and
in our behaviors.
· Support Leaders to take accountability to deliver
Business Results through empowered minds and fuelled by passion.
