This occurs within certain fundamental roles that human resources is expected to accomplish in ensuring that the objectives set by an organization through the various developed strategies are in actual sense accomplished or fulfilled (Boxall and Bartram, 2010). The second goal is providing commitment security by ensuring that stronger cultures are built.

The final basic goal of human resources is that which involves achieving flexibility and the environment that would enable proper adjustment in the event that there are rapid changes resulting from various instances of globalization or other attributes of similar manner (Arup, 2008).
Even though the above remain the main the basic goals of human resource, there are several major goals that are derived from the above three, with each having substantive role and responsibility it addresses to effect the changes that are synonymous with this particular department in an organization in ensuring that the organization attains all its objectives and aims as designed through the developed strategies (Boxall and Bartram, 2010).
Goals of HRM
The seven major goals of HRM in an organization include designing of various performance incentives, boosting of employee morale, increase of accountability within the organization, development of leaders through developing the various leadership skills and attributes, increase of organizational learning, ensuring that the organization goes through a process of effective recruitment and staffing and increasing efficiency in the different operations of the organization (Dessler, 2010).
Designing Performance Incentives
Performance is the sole attribute of each and every organization whose main purpose to satisfy its clients and establish success in its operations. In order for performance to be done effectively, all the employees in the organization need to participate in their various capacities. Through the contributory factors of the performance management, various benefits in the organization and the employee incentives, an organization can grow from just a small enterprise to a great profitable company. However, in order for this to be achievable, there are certain measures that need to be put in great consideration in a manner that would ensure that all systems go according to plan and all strategies implemented as they are developed.
Understanding of the effectiveness of the incentives by managers is the key factor in ensuring success for this particular goal. Appropriate understanding by the managers of various departments in an organization determines the manner in which each aspect with regard to strategy is tackled (Arup, 2008). Through understanding of the various incentives by the managers, it is easy to make a substantive decision on whether to work with the already existing programs or develop new incentives that are success oriented in line with the organization’s objectives. Regardless of the direction taken, the main target is to come up with a combination of programs and incentives that work hand in hand in ensuring that the levels of employee performances are of desirable measures.
On the same aspect, it is essential that for effective employee performance, all employees in the organization should be given definite roles and responsibilities that are aligned to their capabilities and power (Parry and Tyson, 2010). This is one fundamental consideration that must be made by the human resources’ department in ensuring that the performance of every employee is up to the desirable standard as per the organization’s desires. Effective performance ensures success for an organization.
Boosting Employee Morale
Employee morale has a direct link to their performances. Businesses and organizations are places that combine individuals of different diversities and cultures. The manner in which an organization handles the different cultures and diversities remains the most fundamental aspect with regard to how an employee is affected. It is crucial that for an organization to attain success through the performances of the different employees, then it is fundamental that the employees remain positive at all times in all the activities they engage themselves in within the organization. Respecting the differences that every employee has is very important as a contributory factor to effective performance in the various duties. This can effectively and efficiently done through setting of appropriate employee objectives by the human resource management department that guarantees employee’ respect for each other (Wright, 2007). Through this, employee morale is boosted hence ensuring effective performance.
Even though it is very difficult to satisfy each and every employee in an organization, it is appropriate that they achieve at least some level of appreciation from the work they do. To achieve this, the human resource management department has the sole mandate of designing and adapting to various organizational priorities and appropriate condition under which the employees operate in a way that will make them always remain positive towards their job. One way through which this is usually done in most cases is through recognizing the different achievements and success that each and every employee has achieved. This according to Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (2010) About EEOC: Overview, Authority & Role.
Other than this, there are numerous methods that can be used to effect this and it is usually up to the human resources department to come up with other creative means through which employee and staff morale can be boosted. People usually perform to their best when they are positive about what they do. This makes them give their best, a necessary condition for achieving success.

Each and every staff in an organization should always be up to task of the responsibilities that are bestowed in their hands. Increasing accountability is a major concern for an organization that has strict objectives to meet. Increasing accountability is done through various means. First, it is done through ensuring that employees’ priorities are aligned with the goals of the organization. Once this is determined, it is fundamental to ensuring that the daily operations of a particular employee contribute towards the success of the organization. This is one means of increasing accountability.
Accountability can be increased through encouraging employees to set SMART goals. Setting of specific, measurable, achievable, results oriented and time bound is very effective in this perspective. Through the analysis of these goals, the human resource department is able to measure the level of accountability for each employee and determine appropriate adjustments that can be done to make it more effective. The employees should also be able to exhibit desirable behaviors or in some instances known as metrics, when help the HRM department in making evaluations of their employees (Dessler, 2010).
Develop Leaders
Since each and every organization is determined to grow to the next level of business line, it is essential that they develop the various skills and qualities that are required for the next generation leadership. With the current aspect of technological developments becoming a major contributory factor to the success achievement of organizations, it is patent that the young generation be accorded the opportunity of developing the leadership skills and qualities most essential for the making of this particular aspect and perspective a reality (Kaplan, 2003).
One effective and most promising way through which this could be done is through organizing of various seminars and workshops for various individuals who are seen to posses certain measure of attitude and attributes necessary to achieve the appropriate leadership skills in them. From a different point of view, organizing of such projects happens to be another way through which the morale of certain employees can be boosted (Boxall and Purcell, 2008). This would put some urge into enhancing performances for different employees to ensuring that they attain certain level of performance that guarantees leadership.
Through development of leadership skills from the employees in one way through which they increase their chances of handling more responsibilities which to a greater extent is more beneficial to the organization as the various individuals will be capable of handling more responsibilities a factor that ensures that efficiency within the organization is made certain. With regard to other HRM policies, multi-skilling can be done to employees to remove narrower job classifications, could go a long way in developing of leadership skills from staff.

Creating a learning environment is to bring about all factors of development within the organization into consideration which would ensure that the organization develops certain unique ways of conducting business from the usual means known to all (Arup, 2008).
Having such an idea is hard to put into practice, and requires definitely proper and effective strategies in place. Establishing a learning environment ensures that the employees are able to come up with new ideas and ways through which things could be done. Increased learning environment creates the possibility of innovation and invention among employees in response to the changes occurring in the market platform. This is one absolute way through which an organization will be able to stand strong against its competitors in the market arena and attain success and increased productivity in its operations.
Learning ensures that people use their different talents and gifts creatively to come up with new strategies aligned for the success of the organization.
Effective Recruitment and Staffing
The success of an organization starts all the way from the particular individuals it chooses to put in as its employees. Recruitment of staff is one of the major goals of the human resource management department in an organization (Boxall and Purcell, 2008). Determining the most effective individual to work in a position in an organization is the most crucial part of the recruitment process. This is one part that various organization usually go wrong, which end up recurring in the poor results obtained from the various performances contributed by the employees.
For the high performing organizations, one of their most important objectives is to ensure that the recruitment process and staffing is always done in the most effective way. To effectively carry out this exercise in certain instances, they usually develop a mechanism of outsourcing in which they acquire the services of another organization best placed in this line of duty to help in making the choice of the most qualified and competent individual for various positions that they fill. It is the mandate of the HRM to develop policies that govern the mechanism used in making such choices (Dessler, 2010). The human resource management therefore has the goal of ensuring that all individual brought into the organization are better placed to take the organization to the next level through the excellent performances of the recruits.

Efficiency can be improved through various means depending on the direction a particular human resource management takes up the strategies developed in attaining and achieving the goals and objectives of the organization. In certain instances some HRM departments eliminate the aspect of job duplication within an organization and encourage the development of working partnerships to ensure that whatever is done is the best of what could have been done (Kaplan, 2003).
The human resource department can also develop the criteria of specificity in which departments are made which deal with one particular job responsibility. This has proved to be very effective in many instances in which it has been applied different departments having specific job descriptions to perform in ensuring that every detail of work is extensively checked before any final determination is made on the same.
Efficiency can be improved through regular training activities which must be developed by the human resources department which would then guarantee that employees acquire increasing knowledge on they need to carry out their duties in the organization. This to a greater extent determines the success of the organization as what the staff is able to do results in the outcome of the business.
RecommendationsAn organizations success is usually determined by the decisions making.

Goal Setting
The Strata Manufacturing in 2010 became the composite company for fabricating aero structure. It is located in in Al Ain. It is part of the aerospace communication company owned by Mubadala. The company lives up to expectations nearly with its accomplices and customers to convey creative, financially savvy arrangements that join driving edge advancements, best work on assembling methods, and an incorporated production network to the worldwide aviation sector. The goal of the company is to make a differing, manageable, and cutting edge products to the world.
Working as a technician in the company and a team leader, the goals of the company get to be divided and contributed by every employee in their sections of specialization. Every employee set the goals so as to align with that of the department as well as that of the entire company. The company goals can be categorized as immediate goals, short term goals, Intermediary goals, and long term goals.
Immediate goals are set of goals that need accomplishment in a very short period of time. It is where instant results get to be seen attained. The duration ranges from hours to weeks. On the other hand, short term goals are goals that need accomplishment in a near future. The duration is usually within weeks and months. Long term goals are goals that need to be accomplished in a further future. It calls for planning and preparation and takes duration of more than twelve months.
Goal setting any of the types of goals, it includes the improvement of an activity arrangement intended to propel and aide a man or gathering to attaining an objective. It can be guided by objective setting criteria (or guidelines, for example, SMART criteria. Goal setting is a noteworthy part of self-awareness and administration writing. According to research by Locke (2001), a more particular and yearning objectives lead to more execution of change than simple or general objectives. The length of the individual acknowledges the objective, can accomplish it, and does not have clashing objectives; there is a positive direct relationship between objective problem and errand execution (Grant, & Anthony, 2012). As a team leader, the goals get attained by setting objectives that is going to influence results in four ways:
Choice: goals and objectives tight consideration and direct endeavors to objective pertinent exercises, and far from saw undesirable and objective unessential activities.
Effort: goals and objectives can prompt more exertion; for instance, if one ordinarily creates 4 gadgets an hour, and has the objective of creating 6, one may work more seriously towards the objective than one would in one way or another.
Persistence: somebody gets to be more prone to work through setbacks if seeking after an objective.
Cognition: goals and objectives can lead people to create and change their conduct.
In my own capacity as a technician, I observe what Locke and Latham (2002) indicated as the means of attaining success through proper setting of goals. In attaining the short term goals in my docket, the first one is commitment to the set goals. Individuals perform better when they are focused on accomplishing certain objectives. Through a comprehension of the impact of objective setting on individual execution, associations have the capacity to utilize objective setting to profit reliable execution. The significance of the normal results of goal fulfillment, and reasonability toward one’s conviction give one the capability to accomplish the objectives, and responsibility to others guarantees or engagements to others can unequivocally enhance duty.
It impacts on the level of responsibility by how agreeable the individual is with the team leader allotting the objective. An outer variable can likewise be the good examples of the single person. Say on the off chance that they strive to be similar to their most loved player, the individual is more inclined to advance more push to their own work and objectives (Kegan et al., 2013).
Inward variables can get from their support level in the work to attain to the objective. What they anticipate from themselves can either prosper their prosperity, or pulverize it. Additionally, the individual may need to seem better than their companions or rivals. They need to accomplish the objective the best and be known for it. The prize toward oneself of finishing an objective is normally one of the principle keys that keep people conferred (Locke, 2001).
It is noted by Locke and Latham (2004) that goal setting hypothesis fails to hold “the issue of time perspective” if the viability of goal setting cannot be clarified by two parts of time management: the guideline of consistent losses. Similar to the interpretation “the entirety of the parts can be more noteworthy than the whole”, a division of a task into a few, quick, sub-goals seems to exploit these two component (Locke & Latham, 2004).
In conclusion, it is critical to plan a head, particularly when one is attempting to achieve a particular goal. It’s essential to picture each of the steps expected to achieve the goals. Additionally, strive, battle and stay positive. The goals won’t occur incidentally, they likewise won’t happen without work. One will need to overcome numerous obstructions before achieving the wanted goals.
