The human resource function assumes a different role depending on the stage of the organisation’s evolution: growth phase; product diversification phase, and steady state. HRM must be treated as a strategic function, must be integrated into all other strategic planning and implementation, and must be developed to operate as a strategic peer to all other institutional components such as operations, risk management, product development or finance.
