Human Resource Management

Introduction

Strategic Human Resource planning is one of the most important elements of Strategic Human Resource. This creates connectivity between the human resource department and the strategic plan of the organization. Achieving the mission of the organization cannot be possible without establishing well formulated strategic goals and supporting them with SHRP (Simms, 2005). Most organizations that fail to achieve their mission have been found to be focused on financial planning so much that they tend to ignore the equally important workforce planning.
