SUBJECT:
Strategic Plan for Human Resources 

Purpose:

Discussion and possible action to adopt the five-year Strategic Plan for Human Resources. 
Background/Summary:

This is the City of Peoria's first five-year Strategic Plan for Human Resources for fiscal years 2016/17 through 2020/21, which includes Principles of Sound Human Resource Management. Recognizing that our employees are our most valuable strength, this plan is a blueprint for maintaining the high quality workforce that makes the City of Peoria an employer of choice. This plan will guide the City in attracting and developing new staff members capable of sustaining the service excellence the City of Peoria delivers.

 

The Strategic Plan for Human Resources is founded upon the City Council goals and the people–related strategic objectives contained in the City of Peoria’s Organizational Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan describes how the people needed for an organization to meet its strategic goals will be obtained.  It is the formal framework linking Human Resource management activities with organizational needs.  It is essentially a “people plan” - a plan to put the right people in the right place at the right time and give them the resources they need to be successful.

 

The competencies of our workforce must keep pace with the increasing complexities of providing superb service to our residents, businesses, non-profit organizations, educational institutions and all who interact with the City of Peoria.
