1. Speed of innovation
if you walk you stand still, so you’ll need to run pretty fast to advance just a little.
Disruptive innovation is going to dominate your daily schedule….
![Page 6: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Disruptive innovation …….an improvement or advancement that enhances a product, service or a process in a manner that has never been expected by the market…..
• Good for consumers • Disruptive for existing industries (some will adapt, others will fade away)
![Page 7: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Radical innovation…
The biggest fear by big companies in this innovation era is not to be able to recognize radical innovation and (timely) capitalize on it when it appears….
![Page 12: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Radical innovation… are we catching up?
XX: “Doing business via the internet is leading to the death of many businesses in Aruba and consequently unemployment of many people?”
EE: “So what you do think businesses in Aruba should do?”
XX: “We should do something about that darn internet...”

• Forget B2C or B2B……
it’s now P2P (person-2-person) …customers want to connect and interact with
companies on a 1:1 social level …and those who can deliver that, will gain
substantial competitive edge...

• Environmental resources are limited and are quite sensitive to everything that we do.
• We are starting to experience the effects of the actions of generations that came before us.
To make sure that future generations will not experience worse, we need to be aware of the ideals and requirements of sustainability….
Think sustainable….
![Page 54: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Why adopting sustainability practices..?
• Without a sustainable society, there is no sustainable business….
• Not only sustaining the necessary environmental resources, but also the social resources, including employees, customers (the community), and corporate reputation
![Page 55: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)

6. CHANGING LIFESTYLES AND SOCIAL VALUES
‘Gen Y is an “experience” culture. They do not want to be told what to like or what to do. They want to experience the world for themselves and pass their own judgment.’
- Bea Fields

Generation Y What they think of themselves:
“Brilliant, thought-provoking, eager, and exciting” What older generations think of them:
“Over-entitled, egotistical, know it-alls”

Changing values…
![Page 68: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
If you think you’ve got everything under control….. Think again….
![Page 69: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
The main question is…
How can organizations remain competitive, be able to attract, organize, nurture and retain that core of talented people, in order to deliver value in a sustainable manner to a diverse group of demanding consumers?
![Page 70: Rethinking HRM in an era of rapid change and flux](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060108/554ed0fdb4c905064d8b5339/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
How organizations are coping
• Create and embrace diversity in knowledge, people and resources.
• Focus on ‘creation’…not just ‘operation’. • Think in terms of value, ‘Win-Win’ and
long-term. • Embrace new forms of capital.

Organizations?.. • An organization is way more that just structure and
system...
• An organization is a series of conversations and dialogues between people, external or internal, in pursuit of solutions….

Building organizations around values …and NOT the other way around
Creating value (Apple example) • Unparalleled stream of breakthrough products • Re-defined how people engage the world with
digital devices • Significant contribution to culture • High quality

Back to pragmatism and contextualization
• No ‘one size fits all’ model • HRM should fit within the organizational
context • Strategic of nature • Value-driven

Changing role of HRM
• Strong HR leadership - develop clear visions, motivate others to join, and help them work toward achieving it.
• Acute future orientation - how changing environmental, organizational, and workforce factors will likely influence the business, and be prepared to deliver appropriate solutions.
• Flexibility and creativity - responsive to the changing needs of its client organization.
• Delivering value – from a non-revenue generating function to a value-creating activity.

Some new HR challenges
Social media policy – managing and monitoring what is being said about the company and how social media is used Millennials – how to motivate and meet the expectations of the millennial generation? Changing norms and values – re-evaluate existing policies or not?

Security and privacy issues –use of company smart phones, tablets (iPads) and other gadgets Team building vs. flexibility in the workplace – cloud computing and remote access Work-life blend –intertwined work and private lives, 24/7 on-call
Some new HR challenges

Managing the ageing workforce –managing ‘brain drain’, attracting new talent Continuous learning – learning as an ongoing activity, which is carried out daily and ad infinitum ??? - ……
Some new HR challenges

HRM: a macro/micro approach
• Preparing the Aruban workforce for the challenges ahead requires a holistic approach.
• NISP (Nos Aruba 2025), The Green Gateway, Chamber of Commerce, etc.

“Transforming the (current) resources of our nation (Aruba) through the creativity of people into new resources and wealth.”
Our own definition of innovation…

So in essence….
• The global landscape is changing quickly. • These trends have an impact on Aruba as
well. • No ‘cook-book’ approach for organization
and HRM design (pragmatic and contextual). • The role of HR today is one that is far more
strategic than ever before. • New challenges are coming along. • Micro/macro approach.
