Development of HR strategies: learning from assessing strategies and advising institutions

Summary

This report has been prepared by the Office for Public Management (OPM) for the HEFCE and other bodies with a direct interest in the HEFCE initiative, 'Rewarding and developing staff in higher education'. These other bodies include the Universities and Colleges Employers Association, the Higher Education Staff Development Association, and the Equalities Challenge Unit.

The report brings together the learning emerging from the work OPM has been undertaking on HEFCE's behalf, as part of the initiative, providing advice to higher education institutions and evaluating their human resource strategies. It is a by-product of that work, rather than the result of a specific research exercise. While the findings are based on some quantitative evidence, their real strength lies in the rich qualitative evidence and the interpretation of the OPM assessors and advisors.
