HR Strategic Management Introduction What are the Human Resource practices that one could consider value creating and that are useful and helpful for both the administration of an organization and the individuals who work in that organization? Why do these practices create value? These issues will be presented in this paper. Value-Creating Practices in the Human Relations Field There is no mystery to the fact that when an individual is working for a company or an organization and the actually tasks assigned to that person ""¦fit their personal characteristics" that individual is going to have a "more positive experience" (Boon, et al, 2011, p. 140). In other words, the HR department should be creating value for the organization by hiring people to match a certain job or a particular function (Boon, 140). Moreover, when an individual's values, knowledge, skills and abilities match well with the company or the particular position within that company, the company is strengthened and that person is likely to stay a long time, saving the money it takes to hire and train a new person. This has been proved to be true in my own experience. I had an opportunity to work for a company as a proofreader; the company contacted the temp agency I was working with, looking for a good proofreader (it was a "pre-press" company). So I was sent there by the temp agency and in a few months the company's HR people saw that I was more than a proofreader; I was also a copy editor and good

An organisation’s performance is vital to an organisation’s success. It is agreed upon that strategic human resource management (SHRM) can be a beneficial tool in achieving optimal organisational performance. Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) is a large-scale fast food chain with over thirty thousand employees (MarketLine, 2016). KFC must ensure all employees are motivated so that they improve their productivity, performance and ultimately achieve the organisation’s objectives by increasing their profit. However, as fast food organisations do not incorporate high performance work systems (HPWS) to manage their human resources, this resulted in low flexibility, decrease in the level of skills and abilities of employees and the employee’s perception of the organisation. This has also led to lower staff morale and increase in staff turnover. In order to resolve these issues, SHRM practices can be implemented. The use of the ability, motivation and opportunity (AMO) framework can be beneficial in determining the underlying reasons for employees’ behaviour that has led to low productivity, decreased motivation and high turnover. Additionally, an employee’s perception of an organisation’s objectives and commitment to the employees is also a critical issue that fast food organisations need to address. Restaurants in the fast food industry such as KFC can utilise strategic HRM to resolve issues that they encounter in order to ensure the workforce is operating efficiently and
