CHAPTER 1: AN INVESTMENT PERSPECTIVE OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

The Strategic View of Human Resources Employees are human assets Increase in value to organization and marketplace when investments of appropriate policies & programs are applied Effective organizations recognize that employees have value Much as organization’s physical & capital assets have value Employees are valuable source of sustainable competitive advantage Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Exhibit 1-1 Sources of Employee Value Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Sources of Employee Value Technical Knowledge Markets, processes, customers, environment Ability to Learn and Grow Openness to new ideas Acquisition of knowledge & skills Decision Making Capabilities Motivation Commitment Teamwork Interpersonal skills, leadership ability Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Adopting an Investment Perspective Determines how to best invest in people Costs Out-of-pocket Opportunity Human assets become competitive advantage Required skills become less manual, more knowledge-based Appropriate, integrated, strategy-consistent approach is needed Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Failure to invest in employees causes A Dilemma Failure to invest in employees causes Inefficiency Weakening of organization’s competitive position Human assets are risky investment Require extra effort to ensure that they are not lost Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Exhibit 1-2 Types of Organizational Assets/Capital Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Research Findings HR practices directly related to profitability & market value Primary reason for profitability: Effective management of human capital Integrated management of human capital can result in 47% increase in market value Top 10% of organizations studied experienced 391% return on investment in management of human capital Copyright © 2005 South-Western.

Exhibit 1-3 HR Value Chain Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

These metrics do not necessarily illustrate how HR impacts HR Metrics Are Complex 90% of Fortune 500 organizations evaluate HR operations on basis of three metrics: Employee retention and turnover Corporate morale Employee satisfaction These metrics do not necessarily illustrate how HR impacts Profits Shareholder value Copyright © 2005 South-Western.

Mercer Model of Measuring HR Impact Identify problem HR can impact Calculate actual cost of problem Choose HR solution that addresses problem Calculate cost of solution Calculate value of improvement 6 to 24 months after implementation Calculate specific return on investment ROI in human assets often not realized until some time in future Copyright © 2005 South-Western.

Exhibit 1-4 Factors Influencing Investment Orientation Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Investment-Oriented Organization Sees people as central to mission & strategy Mission statement & strategic objectives espouse value of human assets in achieving goals Management philosophy encouraging development & retention of human assets Does not treat human assets in same ways as physical assets Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Investment Orientation Factors Senior Management Values & Actions Managers need “investment orientation” toward people Attitude Toward Risk Investment in human resources inherently riskier Human assets never absolutely “owned” Nature of Skills Needed by Employees The more marketable employee skills, the riskier the firm’s investment in skill development Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Investment Orientation Factors Utilitarian (“Bottom Line”) Mentality Attempt made to quantify employee worth through cost-benefit analysis “Soft” benefits of HR programs difficult to objectively quantify Availability of Outsourcing Given availability of cost-effective outsourcing, investments in HR should produce highest returns & sustainable competitive advantages.

Strengthen key relationships Leverage downtime Reading 1.1: The Hidden Leverage of Human Capital Model for Management Success Strengthen key relationships Customers Employees Shareholders Leverage downtime Use variable-pay Address neglected areas: Infrastructure Marketing Operations Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Reading 1.1 Model for Management Success Refocusing staff on what’s important Performance management as disciplined, strategic, value-added process Clearly define, differentiate & balance between core competencies & results Building return on compensation Link base-pay progression to competency achievement Link incentive pay to annual, semiannual, or quarterly results Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Reading 1.2 Seven Common Misconceptions Conscientiousness is a better predictor of performance than intelligence. Companies that screen job applicants for values have higher performance than those that screen for intelligence. Integrity tests don’t work well in practice because so many people lie on them. Integrity tests have adverse impact on racial minorities. Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Reading 1.2 Seven Common Misconceptions Encouraging employee participation is more effective for improving organizational performance than setting performance goals. Most errors in performance appraisal can be eliminated by providing training to managers on how to avoid them. If employees are asked how important pay is to them, they are likely to overestimate its true importance. Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Reading 1.2 Seven Common Misconceptions: Implications Select new employees on both intelligence and conscientiousness. Assess intelligence and conscientiousness before values. Define the values that are important and assess them through carefully developed, valid procedures. Use integrity tests with ability tests for high predictability. Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Reading 1.2 Seven Common Misconceptions: Implications Develop compelling goals; enlist participation and support it through rewards. Training and feedback are important, but errors are difficult to eliminate. Top managers should serve as role models in quality of performance reviews. Attitude surveys are subject to biases; study behaviors as well as attitudes. Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Reading 1.3 Effective HRM Practices Employment Security Selectivity in Recruiting High Wages Incentive pay Employee Ownership Information Sharing Participation & Ownership Self-Managed Teams Training & Development Cross-Utilization & Cross-Training Symbolic Egalitarianism Wage Compression Promotion From Within Taking the Long View Measurement of Practice Overall Philosophy Copyright © 2005 South-Western. All rights reserved.

Reading 1.3 Effective HRM Practices Very few firms will engage in all practices While these practices are important for success, there are other determinants as well Downsides exist Requires more involvement and responsibility than some employees want Managers & others may resist them as well Turnover may result Copyright © 2005 South-Western.
