Strategic human
resource management (HRM) has been defined as a consistent pattern of planned
human resources activities and deployments intended to enable an organization
to meet its goals. Further, strategic HRM, also consists of many components
including aligning the utilization of human resources with the mission, vision,
values and culture of the organization, as well as branding, competitive
advantage, organizational development, diversity management, organizational
structure, and evidence-based HRM.
Using resources, other
than your textbook, identify an organization that successfully implemented
strategic HRM initiatives. Present the initiatives and discuss the business
strategies achieved as a result of the initiatives.

Identify an organizational-level
goal that would be incorporated into an annual business strategy (e.g.,
financial performance, service, productivity, competitive advantage,
innovation.). Develop three organizational development strategies relating to
HRM you would utilize as a manager to support this goal. Create the goals
utilizing SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely)
criteria, specifically identifying how the goal will be measured using
evidence-based HRM.

AMP 434 Week 2 Strategic HRM Plan Benchmark Assessment
Details:
Write a high-level
strategic human resource management plan (3-4 pages).
The purpose of this assignment
is to simulate the thought process managers use to connect unit goals with
organizational strategy. The students are not expected to produce a detailed
strategic plan (which in actual organizations can exceed 100 pages). Rather,
the expectation is that students demonstrate consideration of the multiple
complexities involved in strategic planning.
The assignment is
centered on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) model
of analysis, and the specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound
(SMART) model of goal setting.
Access the GCU
Library, relevant course materials, Internet resources, and the HRM
Webliography to research SWOT analysis, SMART goals, and models of strategic
proposals.
Access your Scenario
Generator Report, which includes a
description of the organization, points to reflect on, a SWOT analysis, and
directions for a SMART goals report. Use this information to write the
Strategic HRM Proposal.
The Strategic HRM
Proposal should be in the form of a professional report. There is no single,
correct manner of presentation. Creative thinking is expected. The formatting
is secondary to the content and application of knowledge. However, the proposal
should be organized in a readily comprehensible manner that conveys a thorough
understanding of course objectives. Graphics, bulleted lists, tables, and
charts are acceptable. Include the following:
·
Introduction and
conclusion that make relevant connections to course objectives.
·
Summary of the
organizational description included in your Scenario Generator Report.
·
Reflection and
application of each point included in your Scenario Generator Report (two to three fully developed sentences per
item).
While APA format is
not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is
expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA
documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in
the Student Success Center.
Instructors will be
using a grading rubric to grade the assignments. It is recommended that
learners review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment in order to become
familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful
completion of the assignment.
The Strategic HRM
Proposal is the first of four assignments. The organizational profile developed
for the Strategic HRM Proposal by the HRM Scenario Generator will be used in the remaining three
assignments.
You are not required
to submit this assignment to Turnitin, unless otherwise directed by your
instructor. If so directed, refer to the Student Success Center for directions.
Only Word documents can be submitted to Turnitin.

emotional intelligence, credit checks, computer literacy, basic skills, and

overview of different delivery methods for training and development, expected
outcomes, and potential return on investment. Include a citation for your
