And yet, there are so much more determinants in spurring excellence in organisational performance. For instance, commitment, motivation, loyalty and engagement. These determinants, which we call HR-variables, are vital to human resources management in enabling organisational success.

Organisational success

In order to excel as an organisation, one needs to optimise performance. The performance of an organisation is dependent on its employees. After all, your employees are the engine of your organisation. They are the driving forces in keeping it running.

What an organisation needs to do is to make certain the engine is able to run as smoothly and as well as possible. An optimum engine requires several things, such as: to have the right people on board and to keep them on board, and to have a pleasant work atmosphere where employees are motivated to work hard in good conditions.

Organisations and HR-managers can steer the organisation to success by effectively managing departments and employees on: Employee loyalty, Employee satisfaction, Employee commitment, Employee motivation, Employee turnover intention and Employee engagement
