Socially Responsible Agile Human Resource Management
摘要
Organizations worldwide are experiencing rapid changes in their natural, global, corporate, and technological environments. Organizations are attempting to react and adapt to this development to ensure their continued survival. After all, companies that are more adaptable and agile than their competitors have a better chance of surviving. The classic definition of agility is the capacity to move quickly and with ease. In human resource management (HRM), agility involves the capacity to swiftly adjust and optimize processes and personnel in response to sudden shifts in both the internal and external environments of the company. In most firms, agility occurs at the human, strategic, and organizational levels and is increasingly integrated into day-to-day operations. The ability to perceive market shifts as opportunities, respond swiftly to them (if not create them), and turn them into advantages will help the business gain a competitive edge. Businesses with an agile mindset prioritize their employees, adress new issues more effectively, acquire knowledge and training more quickly and successfully, and adapt to changes more quickly and favorably. Agile methods and strategies enhance employee adaptability and autonomy by fostering a continuous flow of feedback. An agile transformation leader within an organization is an agile leader who supports, assists, and guides others through the process of adopting agility. Work is performed by self-organizing functional teams, with decision-making shared among employees rather than centralized as before. Greater autonomy leads to higher motivation, making employees more engaged team members. They are also more willing to learn and enhance their VCEN and competencies, thereby improving their work. As a prerequisite for success, this promotes social responsibility, if practices align with the three fundamental characteristics of ISO 26000: taking responsibility for one’s impact on society, interconnectedness, and holism; these are backed by seven principles: “accountability, transparency, ethical behavior, and respect for the interests of stakeholders, the rule of law, international norms, and human rights”. The ISSR society could result from it.
