1 group performance. talent. compensation hkp/// group Management Check-Up The hkp/// group approach to an effective and value-adding Management HR megatrends, such as globalization and digitalization, strongly influence the corporate environment. The current diversity of these megatrends as well as market dynamics are forcing companies to become more innovative, digital and agile. In addition, typical issues with Management, such as a shortage of good candidates, a lack of qualified internal successors for key positions or time-consuming processes, point to a strong need for action. More and more organizations are therefore currently revising their Management. In order to provide direction in these times of change, countless Management how-to manuals have been published over the last decade, promising the road to success. These manuals create the notion that Management can be optimized by simply adopting best practices. However, this imitation approach is like flying blind. Best practices need to be checked for fitness with the company s own specific situation because what works for one company might not necessarily work for another. Instead of blindly adopting best practices and trends, organizations should take a step back and start with the purpose of their Management. Alignment and integration are key to an effective and value-adding Management. However, best practices can still serve as an inspiration. Take the opportunity to develop a fit for purpose Management for your organization with the help of the hkp/// group Management Check-Up. Explore our service offering on the following pages which will guide your organization through three steps to your individual roadmap for a fit for purpose Management. To provide the right, company-specific direction for Management, an overarching Management purpose is required. Leon Jacob, Manager hkp/// group

Based on the ratings, each Management initiative, tool or process is clustered together with representatives of HR and the business into one of the three categories STOP, CHANGE or CONTINUE. For purpose statements that are insufficiently covered, entirely new Management initiatives, tools or processes are suggested (category START). Lastly, the Management initiatives, tools and processes in the CHANGE and START clusters are prioritized.
