Lesson 1 Discussion Forum 1: Discussion 350 WordsWhy is it important for HR management to transform from being primarily administrative and operational to a more strategic contributor?Your discussion is to be submitted in 12-point Times New Roman font using APA format. You must have a minimum of two sources to support your answer.Reply to post: 250 WordsOrganizational change is an important aspect within the management because it enables the managers to run daily operations in a manner that fits the current competitive environments. As such, the most affected organizational division is the human resource department. The working environment today is faced with a lot of dynamics rising to form the demands of the administration and the human resource. Thus, the management should be more strategic in meeting the demand of employees rather than being administrative and operational, so that there can be a balance in both cases. Human needs rapidly change within and without the workplace due to environmental, technological, and organizational changes (Kapoor n.d). Thus, the human resource management division should be in the front line to assist the members in adjusting to the changes in meeting the objectives of the organization. The presumption that the basic knowledge from education or experience is enough for task performance many not apply throughout. For instance, employees need to be trained so that they can adjust to new technologies and production techniques. Thus, prior knowledge may not apply in such new working environments. Hence, the only way the HRM department can help in dealing with such dynamic and emerging matters is by approaching the situation strategically, rather than operational and administrative. On a different note, this would help in advancing the competitiveness of the organization within the industry. Further, it helps as a motivating factor because of the changes in working environments.
