Abstract

Socioeconomic development is greatly aided by non-governmental organizations (NGOs), especially in regions where official action may be restricted. In NGOs, strategic human resource management (SHRM) is essential to increasing their sustainability, effectiveness, and efficiency. In this study, SHRM practices at NGOs are examined, common challenges are noted, and opportunities for development are looked into. Using a mixed-methods approach, 180 respondents from different NGOs provided quantitative and qualitative data for the study. While qualitative interviews explore perceived challenges and potential opportunities in SHRM, quantitative analysis focuses on factors like recruiting, employee engagement, training, and development. The findings show that resource limitations, talent retention, and capacity growth are challenges that NGOs confront. Through strategic planning, creative training techniques, and employee empowerment, there are, nonetheless, opportunities to improve HRM procedures. The results provide NGOs with a framework for improving the organizational outcomes of their HR strategy.
