Every Human Resource Manager or Director need to understand the concept and application of 'organizational alignment'. When I mentioned organizational alignment - I am not referring to the streamline of HR policies and procedures but focusing on the overall HR Dept alignment capability at a higher level and organizational-wide.
One of the organizational alignment tool which I was introduced to in 1996 (while working with Hong Leong Group Malaysia) was ODI (Organizational Dynamics Inc) 'Alignment Diagnostic Tool'. It opened my eyes as a young manager on how business strategy, human resource, processes, and customer (internal /external) can be aligned and drive the organization to achieve the targeted business results (Please see Exhibit 1 and 2 for an overview of the model / framework)
To have a better understanding of the application - I recommend you look up at the local library on "The Power Of Alignment" by Dr. George Labovitz.
