Strategic Human Resource Management Tools

Managers use several tools to translate the company’s strategic goals into human resource management policies and practices. These tools include the strategy map, the HR scorecard, and the digital dashboard. The strategy map summarizes how each department’s performance contributes to achieving the company’s overall strategic goals. It helps the manager and each employee visualize and understand the role their department plays in achieving the company’s strategic plan.

Management gurus sometimes say that the map clarifies employees’ “line of sight.” It does this by visually linking their efforts with the company’s ultimate goals. Many employers quantify and computerize the strategy map’s activities. The HR scorecard helps them to do so. The HR scorecard refers to a process for assigning financial and nonfinancial goals or metrics to the human resource management-related strategy-map chain of activities required for achieving the company’s strategic aims.

A digital dashboard presents the manager with desktop graphs and charts, showing a computerized picture of how the company is doing on all the metrics from the HR scorecard process.
