Concept of Holistic Perspective of an Organisation and its Role in Business Growth
According to BILLY CHEUNG, 2018, Holistic refers to the overall development of an
individual, organization or anything else. But the consideration should focus on not only on one
aspect but on the overall aspects of the business in order to be considered as the Holistic
Approach. For example, if we consider Holistic Marketing Strategy so this does not mean that it
will focus on only one concept but everything which relates to marketing of the product. As
marketing is not only linked with the the promotion of the product, but also covers other aspects
such as the arrangement of marketing campaign programs that could also help in the growth and
development of the programs. The implementation of the marketing processes are also linked
with holistic marketing concept.
According to James Birrell, 2018, the concept of holistic perspective for organisations is
considered with the overall growth and development of the organisations. The following
approach relates with the development of organisations in all the related contexts. It is related to
the departmental development of organisations, infrastructure developments, workplace
development, rules an regulations development and many more. Development does not relate to
any one factors but it is the consistency of overall factors of an organisation that helps in creating
the overall positive impacts on the image of the organisation (Pluta and Rudawska, 2016).
Seems to sat that in case the workplace is developed than it will be beneficial only for the
employees and the satisfaction of the employees will increase, but it will not impacts upon the
satisfaction level of the customers at all. In extension of this the Lozano, 2015 stated that it is
effective in enhnacing the customers satisfaction, the importance to product design, quality,
marketing, marketing campaigns, promotional activities should also be taken into consideration
and initiated. Likewise the consideration should also be taken about the government, suppliers
and many more people that impacts upon the working of an organisation. The collection of these
helps and contributes towards the overall development of the organisations. So with the
application of this perspective in the organisation, it will be possible for it to ensure proper
growth and development of the organisation. It will also provide them with various benefits such
as the increase in the quality of products and services of the company, increase employees and
customer satisfaction and many more. Due to these reasons, it will be helpful for the company to
adopt the holistic approach in the working of the company so that improvement could be
ensured.

But on the other side the James Birrell, 2017 suggested that with using holistic
perspectives, it will become easy for the companies to ensure proper growth and development of
the organisation, it is because of the changes in the ways of working of the company, use of new
and automated machines and equipments which will help in increasing the pace of production
and reduce the cost of production of the company will also related to creating better relation and
coordination among the employees and with the management also. So the contribution made will
help in the proper and sustainable growth and development of the organisation. As the
companies will work on the overall perspectives of development, so the impact will be positive
as the company has worked on all the level of development and the satisfaction of all the aspects
covered will provide about the growth and development of the organisation. As such for the
companies the satisfaction of customers, suppliers, government, shareholders, stakeholders,
managers, employees are very important and the company should look onto the satisfaction level
of all the aspects that could contribute in the success of the organisation. But despite of this
according to the Liu, T. and et. al., 2018, in term of holistic perspective within a company it can
be said that organisational focus must remain on all the aspects that could impacts the
organisation in both the positive and negative ways. For the example, the consideration about the
government could also be taken as with the help of following properly the rules and regulations
made by the government, it will be possible for the company to reduce the government
intervention in their working and could also get some help and support from the government.
The Significance of Implementing HRM from the Holistic Perspective in Tesco Plc
Anna Pluta, 2019, while presenting their view point over significxance of holistic
perspective stated that holistic approach application in the human resource department will prove
to be very beneficial for the companies such as Tesco. There are many benefits that could be
availed by companies with the application of Holistic Approach in their working such as the
organisational acceleration. As there are many changes in the organisation that takes place from
time to time and for the adoption of these changes it is important for the companies to look over
the personnel as they are ready to accept the changes. As the businesses are operated in ever
changing environment and for this it is miportant for the human resource department to make
rectuiment of those people woh are ready to accpet changes easily, it is not for the benefit of the
organisation but also for the benefit of their employees also. As the employees will get many
new things to learn and this will also lead to the development of their own skills and abilities.

Despite of this Stariņeca, O., 2017, skills and efficiencies will also increase with the help
of holistic approach. It is because fir the development in their skills and abilities they will be
provided with the some training and development programs where they will be taught about the

Potential Influence of Effective HRM from the Holistic Perspective of Tesco Plc. on the
Strategic Thinking and Formulation
According to Tom Starner, 2019, in many terms the influence of HRM could be seen on
the way of thinking and formulation of strategies by an organisation. As the Holistic Perspective
takes into consideration about the overall situation or it can be said that the consideration about
the overall development of the organisation is taken. This will help the individual who is
formulating the strategies to think critically more and more times on the work he is working
upon. It is because the consideration about the overall perspective of the organisation should be
taken into consideration. This makes the strategy formulator to come to conclusion at the when
the strategy has been formulated for the welfare as a whole. The HRM of Tesco should also take
into consideration about the vision of the organisation as the strategies formulated should also
take into consideration about the vision of the company, it should not loose its directions. For
example, the HR Department while formulating the policies for the organisation could make sure
about the pay and compensation of the employees, workplace security and condition could be
taken into consideration. Looking at some more could be about the culture that should also be
taken into consideration at the time of making strategy for the company. It is because the
performance of employees are mostly dependent on the culture of the organisation and how
much the strategy formulated is looking upon the culture.
But according to Kowalski and Loretto, 2017, for the strategy development for the
overall organisation, the HR Department could create effectiveness only in relation to the duties

the organisation. It is because the employees of Tesco will be motivated and this will lead to
increase their performance. With the help of motivated workforce, it will become easy for the

motivation and many more. The improvement made by the HR Department in these practises
will help the organisation in increasing the outcomes and performance of the working of the
employees. So good implementation of the strategies will provide Tesco with many positive
benefits such as the increase in commitment, competence, cost effectiveness, individual
wellbeing, and social wellbeing. These kinds of positive impacts will be drawn on the employees

to understand the condition the employees of the organisation and could work for the benefit of
all.

Research methods- There are specific methods in which research are conducted to make
it reliable and authentic. There are two methods of conducting investigation i.e. qualitative and
quantitative method. Qualitative research method refers to the understanding about opinion,
ideas, and thoughts through hypothesis for potential investigation (Pereira, Malik and Froese,
2017). This method covers uncovered trends and thoughts which might affect decision making of
research regarding solving problem. Under this method, sample size is small and respondents are
selected to fulfil quota. While quantitative research method is effective in order to quantify the
numerical data with use of statistic approaches.

Concept of Holistic Perspective of an Organisation and its Role in Business Growth
The following concept of Holistic Approach introduced, if implemented in the right ways
will provide the company with various benefits and will also help in the achievement of the goals
and objectives of the company (Kramar, 2014). As Billy Cheung has said about the Holistic
Marketing Strategy which considers about the overall consideration of the marketing strategy. So
this perspective is simple and could be easily implemented in the organisation but looking on the
overall could create difficulties for the organisation as it is not much easy for the company to
implement.
The Significance of Implementing HRM from the Holistic Perspective in Tesco Plc
From the perspective of Anna Pluta, the significance of Holistic Perspective is related to
the easy adoption of changes happening in the organisation. But there are also some other
benefits that could also prove to be beneficial for the growth and development of the
organisation. In Tesco, it could help in the improvement in the overall working condition of the
company. It is because the human resource department is the most important department that
could provide the company with the good and talented employees. So with the help of these
employees, it will be possible for the companies like Tesco to achieve their goals and objectives
with full efficiency and effectiveness (Harley, 2015).
Potential Influence of Effective HRM from the Holistic Perspective of Tesco Plc. on the
Strategic Thinking and Formulation
In case of effective HRM, there are many benefits with which Tesco will be provided
with. The influences in the strategy formulation and thinking will be impacted. As firstly the
thinking will only be related to the their own department but now the consideration is about the
overall company. The perspective of all the employees in the organisation will be taken. So the
point of view presented by Tom Starner is also true to much extent. Tesco will be able to
formulate long term policies and strategies for the growth and development of the organisation.
This will help in enhance the thinking area of the management and employees also as from the
short perspective to large perspective (Ehnert, 2014).
