Assignment 2 Semester 1 2025
Unique Number: 145080
Due Date: 24 April 2025
QUESTION 1
1.1 Explain the basic principles of strategic human resource management (SHRM) and
apply them to the case study.
Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) involves aligning human resource
strategies with an organisation’s overall strategic objectives. Its core principles include
integrating HR practices with long-term business goals, involving HR in top-level strategic
planning, and managing human capital proactively to drive organisational performance.
SHRM requires a structured approach at strategic, operational, and functional levels,
ensuring HR policies support innovation, quality, and efficiency across the organisation.
In the case of Zelensky, the company initially implemented SHRM effectively under Ivan's
leadership. He created a strong HR department and appointed an HR business partner to
represent HR in strategic decisions. This strategic integration allowed HR to contribute
meaningfully to organisational growth. However, under Maksym’s leadership, SHRM
principles were abandoned.
