So, what does it take???

  • People-Value Conceptual Model
  • Metrics tied to the model

    in driving business performance

5
HR and Sustainable Competitive Advantage (VRIO
Framework)
How do we drive SCA with HR Practices? The
Question of Value The Question of Rareness The
Question of Imitability The Question of
Organization
6
The Question of Value
Does our HR system provide value, and is it
greater (Revenues-Costs) than competitors.
How do we drive cost reduction in HR? How
do we drive revenue enhancement in HR?
7
The Question of Value (contd)
  • HR and Value at Fed Ex
  • If a resource or activity is not valuable, to
    have it or engage in it results in a competitive
    disadvantage.
  • If a resource or activity is valuable, it might
    only result in competitive parity.

8
The Question of Rareness
How many of our competitors already possess this
resource or capability or are engaged in this
value creating strategy? Common Resources are a
Source of Competitive Parity Common Does Not
Equal Unimportant Valuable and Rare Resources
are at Least a Source of Temporary Competitive
Advantage.
9
The Question of Imitability
Do firms without this resource or capability face
a cost disadvantage in acquiring or developing
it? Performance in the five finger
industry Sources of Inimitability History
Safety at Dupont Problem Substitutability U
ncertainty Value at Koch Industries Problem
Identifiability Social Complexity Culture
at Southwest Problem Fragility
10
Value, Rareness and Imitability
  • Southwest Airlines
  • Compensation at mean of industry
  • Turnover significantly lower than industry
  • Top ten companies to work for
  • Productivity - 81ees/aircraft vs.134
  • 2.2 ees/1000 passengers vs. 4.2

11
The Question of Organization
Are we organized to take full advantage of the
competitive potential of our resources and
capabilities? With V, R, and I, firms can mess
up O and still make money Better Resources
at Merck With V, but no R or I, O makes all
the difference Better Alignment at Shell
