The concept of the research on changes in human resource management in a process-oriented organization

Abstract

The article presents the concept of research on changes taking place in human resource management in an organization adopting process orientation. The movement from the functional to the process organization calls for reformulation of organizational roles, including those connected with the personnel function. The research on changes covers three areas of human resource management: institutional, process and instrumental ones. To identify changes in the human resource management sphere the author used the the Process and Enterprise Maturity Model (PEMM) by M.Hammer. PEMM covers five key factors in process maturity and four factors developing organizational abilities for process management. The reengineering creator's long-time experience in analyzing processes has become the foundation and justification for identification of change areas in human resources management in a process-oriented organization
