Lime human capital offers solutions in the following:
Design of organizational structures and job profiles
Creation of competency frameworks and assessment guides
Assessment / staff selection and skills gap analysis
Career guidance and behavioral coaching

In today’s fast paced working environment very little time is available for HR personnel and line managers to work together in order to develop tools that will ultimately drive quality engagements with their teams of resources. Key to the success of such engagements is the need to be very specific about what each role represents and how these roles fit together in order to drive the optimal results for the business.

Workforce architecture is an approach that ensures the right structures are in place in order to drive requirements such as recruitment and selection; talent management; succession planning; performance management and training and development. Conceptualizing such requirements is often easier than designing and implementing these interventions.

Where do you start? How would these frameworks interact with the various business units; their systems and processes? Is it essential to invest in such frameworks and disciplines and do they minimize the potential risks that the human capital assets of your organization pose?

Lime Human Capital hopes to provide you with some direction when answering these very important questions.

If you are interested in reading more about workforce architecture and would like to identify with an example of an HR Manager framework and assessment guide please contact us to schedule an appointment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Computer no longer needed to make calls over the internet

MAKING a call should be as easy as picking up the phone and dialing a number. Until recently this has been the big problem with internet telephony because most of these services require a computer.

But South African consumers will get a taste of computerless voice calls through the internet using a new service that lets them use a normal telephone handset.

Broadband Talk, an offering from MWEB, uses a broadband internet line — known as an asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) — to transmit the call like any other digital information and make it as easy as using a normal phone.

“The main benefit of Voip (voice over internet protocol) is cheaper international and cellphone calls using a data network. With Broadband Talk, users will be able to make international and cellphone calls at a fraction of the current land-line price,â€

Linux, the "free" computer-operating system, has become a darling of tech departments, but the extra costs hidden behind those quote marks have meant that it's been adopted by only a modest number of smaller businesses.


According to Framingham, Massachusetts-based research firm IDC, 15 percent of medium-sized businesses have adopted Linux, but among smaller (and, you'd imagine, nimbler) companies, that figure is just 7 percent. Part of the difference is explained by the number of computer servers at these businesses — an average of 11.26 at medium-sized companies, 2.87 at smaller companies — says IDC vice president Roy Boggs.

A company with only a few servers, says Boggs, would generally want to avoid the risk of experimentation since all the servers are needed for sharing the daily load and for backing up one another. But "if I have more than that," he adds, "then I can start to explore the potential benefits of Linux."

Supporting a new and untried system is also an issue. Perhaps 85 to 90 percent of midsized businesses have an information-technology staff of their own — a much higher percentage than at smaller companies. "It's only when you cross 50 employees that the majority of firms have full-time IT professionals," says Boggs.

Toronto-based Net Integration Technologies is one company attempting to help smaller clients take advantage of the benefits of open-source software without relying so heavily on dedicated IT staffers. Net Integration's Linux-based operating system, Nitix, uses principles of "autonomic computing" — a movement whose best-known champion is IBM — to create a computer system that's similar to the involuntary nervous system. Just as the nervous system allows a biological organism to cope automatically with environmental change, external attack, and internal failure, so autonomic computing can help create a system that is self-tuning, self-healing, even self-aware, and that doesn't need a full-time Linux expert to keep it running.

Nitix "is transparent to a user and requires a whole lot less maintenance and setup and babysitting," asserts Net Integration chief executive officer Ozzy Papic. "We managed to take the complete Microsoft SBS [Small Business Server] functionality, which requires over 4 gigabytes of code, and delivered the same thing in a little over 25 megabytes" (less than 1 percent of the original size). "That smaller and tighter architecture gave us a fighting chance to make the system autonomic," says Papic.

"An autonomic agent is not as capable as a human being by any stretch of the imagination," he acknowledges, "but by making the system less complex, the autonomic engine that's in charge of the system has less things to worry about, so it can deal with unforeseen problems and keep everything in check."

However, Bill Weinberg, a technology analyst with Open Source Development Labs in Beaverton, Oregon, offers a word of caution to those willing to sacrifice complexity on the altar of autonomics. "Reality is complex, and a simplistic view of reality results in an underpowered response," maintains Weinberg. "The IT environment is complex because user requirements are complex because hardware is complex. It's not an ailment; it's a description of the landscape."

In other words, for autonomic computing to ever become truly "self-aware," it would need to learn to accommodate complexity, not look for ways around it.

Adds Weinberg: "The goal of autonomic computing is to reduce the need for human interaction in the management and configuration of complex systems. It's not reducing complexity in the system; it's reducing the user's need to comprehend it." From small-company finance executives, no argument there.
