The corporate world in the new economic environment is experiencing a paradigm

shift in management thought. Human resources have become the key asset of an
organisation and strategic human resource management is recognised as an important
element to achieve competitive advantage. The emerging scenario is highly complex,
necessitating speed, flexibility, precision, quality and the willingness and ability to change
for survival and success. All these underline the need for human resource function to
reinvent itself. Before catalysing organisational change and adding value through
strategic management, the human resource personnel need to critically assess their role
of strategic business partners within the organisation. Human resource personnel now
need to imbibe general business capabilities in addition to their specialisation.

The new organisation is based on a network of alliances and partnerships. The

stakeholders comprise not only the shareholders but also the employees, suppliers,
customers, local community and global partners. These changes call for a shift in
approach from reactive human resource management to proactive and innovative one.
Human resource managers should be able to go beyond merely responding to business
strategies and be able to anticipate and prepare for the future needs. This involves the
formation of a strategy to reorient organisational culture to bring about openness,
transparency, mutual-trust and healthy competition among employees. A major
impediment to organisational efficiency is lack of proper communication and
information flow. One reason for this is compartmentalisation, i.e. groups of employess
working towards different goals with little knowledge of other functions or
understanding of overall goals of organisation. The human resource function can play
a vital role in redefining the role of the middle management to reduce bureaucracy
building synergies across the organisation and networking.

As organisations move away from traditional, hierarchical systems of

management, the capabilities of teamwork, shared goals, individual and group learning,
planning for team action become important.
