Fundamentally, HR strategy should be designed to be aligned with organizational strategy and goals. When developing corporate strategy, three questions should be answered: “Where are we now?”, “Where is the destination?”, and “How to get there?” Human resources management plays part in both three questions. In the first question, HR management will answer what kind of people you have now. It will show your current power, potential, and lack in human resources arena.

When creating HR strategy, the first step is creating human resources mission statement that aligned with corporate strategy and objectives. It will continue with human resources analysis both internally and externally. After the analysis is completed, HR management will start to create human resources planning. At first, the plan is made in general strategy that comprises culture, organization, people, and system objectives. It then followed with specific functional action plan for implementation inside the HR management team.
