Every organisation has three main resources: physical resources, financial resources and people. Sometimes, we forget about that third resource, but that's a mistake. People are undoubtedly one of the most valuable assets a business has, and they need to have solid support to thrive and maximise their input.

That's where a human resources strategy comes in. A good HR strategy will help people in an organisation be more successful in their roles, which in turn helps the business be more successful.

Human resources can affect every aspect of a business, and it and play a real role in growth, from recruitment to restructuring to business strategy. As you might have gathered, HR is a complicated thing. Below, we break it down so you can understand exactly what it is, why its important, and how its role could evolve in the future.

In very simple terms, human resources is a group of people in an organisation who are responsible for managing the life cycle of all employees. That includes recruitment, hiring, onboarding, training and managing employee benefits, through to their eventual exit from the business. If you want to get really specific, it is truly a resource for the humans within an organisation.

When a human resources department is run effectively, it will create an ideal workplace culture and environment for all employees. It should help enable those employees to contribute to the business in a productive way and get everyone closer to achieving organisational goals.

Human resources is an important function within any business. As we've said above, it can and should actively support an organisation's workforce in the fulfilment of business goals.

1. Valuing people
   Making sure your people understand how important they are to the organisation and recognising their worth is so important. Employees who feel like their employer listens to them and values them are more likely to stay with the company for longer. That's good for business, since hiring can cost thousands of pounds. Also, if people feel that they're valued, they're likely to bring more fresh ideas to the table.
2. Protecting employees
   Maintaining a high quality of work life and protecting people's safety and comfort is an important function of an HR department. If employees don't feel well taken care of, they're more likely to disengage from their work.
3. Investing in upskilling
   The need for continuous learning is so important for a future-focused strategy, and maintaining a culture that supports learning is the function of an HR department. Those skills needed for the future are constantly changing, so making sure your people can adapt is directly correlated to business success.
4. Going beyond technical skills
   Again, skills are super important. But, this isn't just about knowing how to use the latest software or understanding how technology work. This is about going beyond those hard skills and developing the right kinds of soft skills, like adapting to change and working collaboratively.
5. Employee satisfaction
   Every person who works for your organisation should enjoy what they do, and find it fulfilling. Organisations have a responsibility to ensure that's the case. This is good for the bottom line, as well as the wellbeing of your workforce.
