Organisations keep on reinventing themselves to adapt to changing conditions, adjust to harness emerging opportunities or minimise activities or market presence to guard against emerging unhealthy conditions for business. However, only a few companies attain complete success in their endeavour to change for the better.
Most of the time organisations fail to follow a strict plan to achieve planned change and its full benefits within the anticipated time frame. However, change management makes it possible to plan well for anticipated organisational changes and implement those in a timely fashion.
For most organisations, the whole idea is to unlock their full potential through strategic reengineering that addresses both prevailing and anticipated market conditions. However, studies have indicated that very few organisations pay sufficient attention to the practical implementation of their plan. They focus on beautiful road maps, blue prints, ideas, and concepts without addressing how exactly the good looking designs will leave paper off to practice.
Sound change management practices involve the working out of realistic goals and objectives. This facilitates implementation of redesign features that add value to business. Some expert opinion suggests that administration of the change process involves fast-tracking of implementation as much as possible. With proper planning, you achieve a complete change within time. This also involves targeting of the mindset to prepare all systems and stakeholders for the anticipated change. As such, your employees should be well aware and fully behind you in the endeavour to reinvent your business.
As the business operating environment changes, human resources requirements change too. This calls for strategic human resource planning to address both current and future labour needs of an organisation. The practice involves the assessment of current staffing needs, forecasting labour requirements and working out a compromise that preempts shortages or surplus.
Human Resource planning is an ongoing process because the operating environment is dynamic.
