Hay Group Launches Next Generation HR Solution
Hay Group Spectrum to improve the impact of human resource management
June 1 2011 - Hay Group, the global management consultancy, today launches Hay Group Spectrum, a solution designed to
meet the needs of today’s organizations for efficient and measurable human resource management.
"Hay Group Spectrum sweeps away the traditional HR silos and takes a holistic and results-focused approach. This helps organizations to make HR decisions that meet their business needs."
Hay Group Spectrum is an evolution of the company’s pioneering Job Evaluation service, which has helped thousands of organizations to analyze, understand and measure the work that occurs in their business. Hay Group Spectrum brings together the different ways Hay Group helps organizations to gain and apply a full understanding of work. It helps organizations to optimize not just to how they reward their people, but also how they design jobs, fit people to jobs and align jobs to the overall organization structure.
Phil Johnson, Global Head of Hay Group Spectrum, comments: "Organizations’ understanding of work and their approach to HR are often fragmented. Decisions about reward, talent management, role and structure design are made independently of each other.
"Hay Group Spectrum sweeps away the traditional HR silos and takes a holistic and results-focused approach. This helps organizations to make HR decisions that meet their business needs."
A holistic approach
Hay Group Spectrum is a unique offering, based on a complete understanding of the structural and people dimensions of work and how they interrelate. It gives the ‘soft’ aspects of HR (such as engagement, motivation and recognition) more rigor through providing clarity around the work that needs to be done and how it can best be done. And the ‘hard’ aspects of HR (such as accountabilities, job design and reward) become more tangible, grounded in a tested understanding of people and how they interact within the context of particular jobs and structures.
Phil Johnson comments: "The world and business environment have changed irrevocably over the past three years, presenting organizations with new and complex challenges.
"The HR function is being asked to contribute critical insight to strategic decision-making at the highest level. Hay Group Spectrum enables HR to be a strategic business partner, by providing a clarity and objectivity over the nature of work, productivity and talent in an organization."
