HRM is primarily to adapt human resources to the strategic and operational needs of the organization and to ensure the full utilization of those resources. Cares is not only about obtaining and retaining the required number and quality of staff but also about selecting and promoting individuals who are "appropriate" to the culture and strategic needs of the organization.
HRM focuses more emphasis than traditional personal management to find individuals with attitudes and behaviors that are consistent with what management believes is appropriate and conducive to success.

“Employee resourcing is
the process of matching human resource capabilities to the strategic and
operational needs of the organization. This is exceptionally problematic in
project-based organizations due to the competing priorities of the project, the
individual employee, and the wider succession needs of the organization”
(Dainty, et al., 2009).

Strategies

- Number required concerning projected activity
level.
- Skills required based on technological and
product /market developments, and strategies to enhance the quality or
reduce cost.
- Plans to change the organization's culture in
areas such as the ability to deliver, performance standards, quality,
customer service, teamwork, and flexibility, all of which suggest the need
for employees with diverse attitudes, beliefs, and personal traits.
