How will you know whether your approach is proving successful or needs to be refined or adjusted? You must measure the effectiveness of your plan. Recall your learning on HR scorecards, benchmarking, dashboards, and return on investment (ROI), among other key concepts. Which measurements will serve as tools for analyzing the data to evaluate your plan? You need a method to determine actual performance, and this will be used to match performance to the overall organizational strategic goal.
Technology, if appropriately managed and aligned with organizational mission, is an invaluable tool for the HRM professional. As businesses rely more on metrics and analytics to drive decision making, technology takes on added importance. Human resource information systems (HRIS) and other technologies can improve services and connect an organization. Technology can increase efficiency and productivity among staff members in HRM. Mastery of the strategic use of technology is vital.
The next component of your capstone project looks at how HR is expected to recommend system enhancements to increase efficiency and productivity for your selected topic of research, organization, and problem or opportunity. As technology advances quickly, it is important for HR professionals to have a deep understanding of organizational mission and ethics to stay ahead of upcoming legislation that regulates the use of technology.
