El modelo de gestión del recurso humano presente en GOOGLE

Google company, a organization with fast growth, is inserted in a very competitive landscape and in full transformation. It requires a constant search for better results. The company is considered a very fluid business, with few hierarchical levels, without formal schedules and without fixed working hours. For Google, it is necessary that the values, goals and objectives are made clear, and then, this type of organization will function better. Therefore, they believed to be equally important to allow: the manifestation of employees, initiative and the definition about how they will achieve their goals. For these, they believe that free access to information is vital.
Even though living areas with TV, video games and food, everyone has their well-defined objectives, they know what needs to be done. If the targets are met, the employee can work the way he feels most comfortable.

Google is not a conventional company. They turned a Human Resources reference because they are not afraid to question the traditional management models and to think what can be done to satisfy their employees. In addition, the company is supporting the strategy of their business. They invest in a HR team with diverse experience and highly qualified professionals. Regarding HR practices, stands out the flexible company policies, which allow working with new models and open the way for innovation.

There is something else behind the colorful furniture and benefits that we see in Google offices around the world. The pieces and the time flexibility and the mode of operation are aligned with a model that challenges the human resources standards. In accordance with this philosophy of work, Google was appointed several times, in various locations around the world as the best company to work for. “We turned reference in HR because we have no fear of questioning traditional models," says Julia Crosman, HR manager for Engineering Office of Belo Horizonte (Brazil), in an interview.

According to Julia Crosman, flexible business model works because there is clarity of values , goals and objectives. It is important to allow employees to take initiative and to allow they define how they will achieve their goals, she said.

"The benefits are there for the employees to feel taken care and at home. Here, the boss will not complain about you be playing during work hours, but for not calling him to join", jokes Delhi Matsuo, HR director of the company for Latin America. "With so many brilliant minds, you need fewer rules."

This freedom allows people to develop their creativity and foster innovation. No need to install too rigid processes or barriers that limit the innovativeness of people. Just promote an environment with more freedom than we would be surprised by the ability of employees to create simple and cheap solutions to seemingly complex problems.

When we think about Google, we think about a culture in which managers, leaders and followers are free to talk more informally, allowing important information to be shared among all naturally.
