Is this topic enough strategic for me?

without comments

The young and fresh university graduates entering Human Resources are always focused on the strategic topics. It is nice. But for Human Resources, the experience is extremely important as just the experience gives certainty in the proposals made to the leaders and managers.

The young fresh university graduates should not think about their role in the strategic HR management as they have to learn the basics of the function. They should do the real paperwork for some time as they can understand that the papers are important – sometimes. Sometimes, the papers are not important, they can be really strategic.

The career has to be build. The career steps are defined and the people have to grow pretty slowly. Building the experience and certainty need time and the people have to be patient.

Do not promise a quick career path in Human Resources or you can be in real troubles quickly. When the HR Professionals are not experienced enough, they make stupid mistakes and they cannot be the real HR Business Partners. They are not respected and their advices are not considered.

Do not speed up. Get focused.

HR is challenged. By the financial crisis, the importance of the right human capital development increased and the HR Professionals are under a huge pressure to bring more and more as the organization keeps its competitiveness on the market. The general one and the job market.

The HR Professionals try to deliver more, but it is not the right answer. They have to get focused on the priorities with the best impact on the results of the whole organizations. The real effort should be focused on selection of the most important HR Processes, which will bring major benefits to the organization.

The main principle for the new reality is keeping the HR Processes simple and efficient as the managers can quickly react to the needs of the market. The HR Processes have to support the competitiveness and Human Resources cannot be a brake to their effort.

Human Resources is not valued for being too complex, but it is valued to take the workload from the managers in the area, where they are not experts. HR has to identify the main challenges of managers and the HR Processes have to be quickly support the effort to meet the goals.
