This quote from Transformation Magazine describes the HR function and its importance to the organization. To describe how Auxillium West helps to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of this function, let us first examine the HR philosophy that underlies our vision. The Auxillium West vision begins with an HR philosophy as described by David Ulrich, professor of organizational development at the University of Michigan, who is recognized for his human resource management expertise and comprehensive research. Strategic Partner HR must ensure that its practices, processes, and policies complement the overall organizational strategy, and develop a capacity to execute that strategy. In these times of rapid change, HR must minimize the time it takes to implement the strategy.
All organizations change.
The HR role is to facilitate that change in organizations. This includes modeling change to other departments, advocating change across the entire organization, resolving issues that arise from change, and institutionalizing change by implementing efficient and flexible processes. This is the role to which HR dedicates most of its time, and rightfully so. This role involves HR infrastructure, such as recruiting, hiring, compensating, rewarding and disciplining, training, recordkeeping, and terminating, and any other process that involves people. HR must ensure that these processes are efficient and optimized, which requires tracking, monitoring, and continuously improving.
