Touchstones of HR

If success of a company / team / entity depends on its people, then best companies must be doing something right with their human resource and the struggling companies must be struggling in their man management (whether they are aware of this fundamental cause or not!)

Given below are the basics of Human Resource Management:-

* Hire only on talent, thirst and attitude!
- If these are missing or compromised, nothing else can cover up.

* Basic compensation has to be correct.
- If the basic compensation package is wrong, nothing else can be right.

* Deploy correctly.
- Wrong casting can ruin the entire movie!

* Equip, Empower, Train, Facilitate
- Without these, don't expect results

* Efficient system, environment and Culture
- Without these, expect the best of the plants to decay!

* Confidence & morale, protocol and hand holding
- Ensure these

* Clarify expectations
- Don't assume.

* Inspire, Challenge
- Motivate to get the best

* Appreciation, Reward, Recognition
- What gets rewarded gets repeated

* Treatment, Involvement, Interaction
- Keep communication and community thriving! Inject sense of importance!

* Growth, Learning, Self-Realisation, Esteem, Sense-of-achievement
- Touchstones! Decisive!!

* Shakeup, Challenge, Change, Culture Shock, Emotional Ride
- Raise the benchmark, Widen the playground, Keep the control

* Optimum stress
- Neither too less, Nor too much

* Personal & Family Zone
- Nothing else will work if self and family not managed and happy!
- HR extends to employees family and employees layers!!
