P/HR/13. Discuss the various problems human resource managers faced in formulating human resource strategies and policies for their organisations with special reference to the article Involvement and Participation by Mick Marchington.

If an organisation is to survive and grows, and retains and motivates its top performers, performance management is a must. Japanese companies are successful because of their involvements with their staffs. Any new policies or strategies introduce should be introduce in a phased and planned manner, and attempts are made to ensure that there is at least some complementarity between these different techniques and try to find which one works the best. Implementing and integration with existing techniques at the organisation sometimes failed because employees find it hard to schedule or cope with the work burden they already have or managers/employees resist changes. The human resource manager need to communicate and stressed changes to old work practice and ideas because of changes in the organisations environment and strategies.
