Human resources always refer in people mind the function done by employess with head section and HR manager processing employess leaves, recruitment, payroll and pension, employee benefits and so on, althou these functions are essential in HR but its not what HR all about and there are more to be done not just by HR professionals but managers, supervisors and team leaders as well.
Dave Ulrich talked about strategic HR in several books he wrote, in fact not just showed that HR has strategic role in the organization but even more how HR role is part of all employess on all levels, every CEO, manager, supervisor and team leader must have HR role, as long you deal, lead and affect human being then you must have HR role.
HR strategic role and admin functions are the tools and methods enablers for the organization and top management to practice HR with their employees but not just any HR practices the professional and right practice that fit the organizational culture, environment, industry and capabilities, when it comes to employees performance, training needs, coaching, career development and motivation these are all responsibilities of managers and supervisors, HR in addition to its admin functions is enabler, consultant and provider for top management to perform their HR role with employees.
Imagin a company has strategic HR, HRIS technology system, HR ISO and professional HR employees but the top management not practicing or even try to use all these tools, the result will be disaster on the company since each manager, supervisor and team leader will act base on his appraoch and mindset that mostly will lead employees to frustration, stress and other negative feelings and emotions that will affect their performance and creativity.
That is why having strategic HR role is not enough, HR must create, educate, train, develop and sustain HR cluture, pracrices, methodologies and tools in the organization and push for updating it and adopt the right HR mindset.
