HR and Change

without comments

The HR strategic role is about provoking the positive changes in the organization, as the organization does not become an old and mature organization, which just keeps controlling its market share and does not innovate its products and internal procedures. The positive change is about keeping the organization healthy and focused on its main goals, the implementation of the strategy and the vision of the company.

The HR has the role of the Change Agent, which is about playing the positive role in the change management and finding the potential to change in the organization. The HR employees should be positive about the upcoming changes, they should find the benefits provided by the change and they have to communicate the benefits to the organization.

On the other hand, the HR employees have to understand to worries of the employees and they have to provide them with the useful help and advice, as they do not feel lost in the change process. It is extremely difficult as this role needs a lot of trust of employees and the trust is not gained automatically.

The HR is the supporting unit and it has to support the changes in the company, as the company does not start to stagnate. The role of HR in the changes is about recognizing the healthy level of changes, which can be accepted by the majority of employees and eliminating the potential damages to the organization. Each change results in some damages and HR has to play the role of identifying the key groups of employees affected by the change and proposing and implementing a special plan for those group to keep them happy.
