HRM: Key to Competitive Advantage

Human resource management is important for three key reasons: it can provide a significant competitive advantage, it is an important part of organizational strategies, and it can significantly improve organizational performance. High-performance work practices include self-managed teams, decentralized decision-making, training programs, open communication, performance-based compensation, staffing based on fit, giving employees more control, increasing access to information, and flexible job assignments. The functions of HRM are to identify and select competent employees, provide training and skills development, and ensure retention of top performers. External factors like the economy, unions, laws and regulations, and demographic trends can also influence the HRM process within an organization.
