Overlaps between human resources' strategic planning and strategic management tools in public organizations

Planning develops a foundation for management elements and a process that organizations combine all their activities and efforts related to their intended purposes, the way to achieve them, and how to pass these ways. The aim of this paper is to present scientific research about the applicability and efficiency of two strategic management tools including the analysis of value chain and stakeholder analysis in the public organizations and to suggest that strategic tools such as value chain analysis used in public organizations need to adapt themselves to presupposed conditions in order to maximize the effect of them for understanding the conditions. These studies suggest that the strategic analysis of relations that make up all or part of organizations' values is less important if their complex relationships are mutually interdependent and unclear. This study tries to apply two models including value chain analysis and stakeholder analysis in the similar way to show that how strategic understanding increases as result of coexistence. Therefore, management should have a proper planning for its all resources. One of these resources which is strategic for organizations is human resources which are the important component for strategic planning. Some factors have caused a new approach in the strategic human resources' planning, however; this kind of planning is not used completely in organizations due to some limitations.
