What are the benefits of developing your People Strategy?
Once you know the kind of people you want to work for you, it becomes easier to find them. Then you can develop a solid training programme, and the most suitable employee benefits package, to keep them engaged and motivated and more likely to stay for longer. It helps your people see that you are looking after them and want them to develop, which makes them more likely to grow and shape as your business does. A positive environment is a productive environment!
What’s included in a People Strategy?
You can include whatever works and is right for your company. But some of the key components include:
- Talent Acquisition: Developing recruitment strategies that address any sector-specific challenges, such as skills shortages in sectors like technology and healthcare.
- Learning and Development: Creating continuing professional development (CPD) programmes that upskill and reskill your employees to meet changing business needs.
- Performance Management: Putting in place systems that align individual goals with organisational objectives.
- Employee Experience: Designing workplaces and policies that promote well-being, engagement and productivity while respecting work-life balance expectations.
- Reward and Recognition: Developing attractive compensation packages that retain and attract new employees, and motivate existing teams.
