HR Restructuring – Ethiopian Ministry of Agriculture

R&D Group successfully completed a comprehensive HR restructuring project for the Ethiopian Ministry of Agriculture (MoA), a strategy which later was implemented by Deloitte. The project involved an in-depth assessment of the Ministry’s current HR department, focusing on several key areas: the existing HR design and structure, alignment of organizational business goals with current capacities, performance measurement and incentive structures, staff development, strategic resourcing, organizational culture, and conflict resolution mechanisms.

We have conducted a thorough analysis of the HR bottlenecks within the MoA, considering the Civil Service Reform guidelines, Business Process Reengineering (BPR), and the Balanced Score Card (BSC) framework. Based on this analysis, we provided the Ministry with strategic recommendations for policy and structural shifts necessary to enhance their HR function.

The project culminated in the development of an HR Development Strategy, which included detailed findings, actionable recommendations, and a clear implementation plan to guide the Ministry in aligning its HR practices with its organizational goals and improving overall performance.
