At Helios, we are often asked to define (and provide) strategic HRM to an organization in need of change. Strategic Human Resource Management is a big "buzz" term that has been used in senior leadership circles for quite some time. It is widely known to be the future of HR, is talked about at every HR conference, and is what most executives tell us they want when we work with them. But what is it? How can you determine if your HR department is working strategically? What is Strategic HRM?

“Strategic HR”. It’s a buzzword in the HR industry that has been around for some time, and I anticipate it will be around for a while longer. This concept of strategic HR is floated frequently, and it’s quite possible that, like many other business owners, you find yourself asking, “What is strategic Human Resources and how can it help my business?”

Human Resources is sometimes seen as a back office function rather than being a strategic partner that can help drive revenues.

In recent years, we've witnessed an exciting revolution in HR software. Existing tools are better than ever, while new tools like Artificial Intelligence help Human Resources teams reach new heights of efficiency.

Applicant Tracking Systems are an essential part of life for modern recruiters and hiring managers. The right ATS can help you with sourcing talent, scheduling interviews, and providing a positive candidate experience.

Updating your HRIS or other HR technology can be difficult and expensive, and change projects can disrupt workflows within your Human Resources team. Perhaps it's no wonder that so many organizations try to delay upgrades for as long as possible.
