Keys to Success as a HR Professional

Know the business – have intimate knowledge of the mechanics of your business. Understand the vernacular, anachronisms, strategy and the preferred implementation methods.

Know what is confidential – Sharing of information is encouraged, but be sure the individuals receiving the information have a need to know. Information should help others meet business objectives.

Model Tri-level communication – Be an example of effective communication. Relate equally well with managers, peers and front-line employees.

Correlate organizational systems – Awareness of the interconnectivity between organizational systems is necessary. Make sure your business plan, recruiting plan, training plan, retention plan and reward mechanisms all mesh together with a singular focus.

Practice transactional excellence – the ability to process information with a seamless organized approach has critical impact upon the organization

Create policies, guidelines and programs – which are consistent with overall business objectives. Don’t confuse great program design with absolute program need.

Maintain an understanding – of the latest technologies, resources and legislation. Don’t put yourself in the position of expecting others to be responsible for your personal development.

15 Tips For Time Management

Time management is one of those skills no one teaches you in school but you have to learn. It doesn’t matter how smart you are if you can’t organize information well enough to take it in. And it doesn’t matter how skilled you are if procrastination keeps you from getting your work done. In today’s workplace, you can differentiate yourself by your ability to handle information and manage your time.  So here are 15 tips to make you better at managing your work:

1. Write things down

A common time management mistake is to try to use your memory to keep track of too many details leading to information overload. Using a to-do list to write things down is a great way to take control of your projects and tasks and keep yourself organized.

2. Prioritize your list

Prioritizing your to-do list helps you focus and spend more of your time on the things that really matter to you. Rate your tasks into categories using the ABCD prioritization system described in the time management course.

3. Plan your week

Spend some time at the beginning of each week to plan your schedule. Taking the extra time to do this will help increase your productivity and balance your important long-term projects with your more urgent tasks. All you need is fifteen to thirty minutes each week for your planning session.

4. Carry a notebook

You never know when you are going to have a great idea or brilliant insight. Carry a small notebook with you wherever you go so you can capture your thoughts. If you wait too long to write them down you could forget. Another option is to use a digital recorder.

5. Learn to say no

Many people become overloaded with too much work because they over commit; they say yes when they really should be saying no. Learn to say no to low priority requests and you will free up time to spend on things that are more important.

6. Think before acting

How many times have you said yes to something you later regretted? Before committing to a new task, stop to think about it before you give your answer. This will prevent you from taking on too much work.

7. Continuously improve yourself

Make time in your schedule to learn new things and develop your natural talents and abilities. For example, you could take a class, attend a training program, or read a book. Continuously improving your knowledge and skills increases your marketability, can help boost your career, and is the most reliable path to financial independence.

8. Think about what you are giving up to do your regular activities

It is a good idea to evaluate regularly how you are spending your time. In some cases, the best thing you can do is to stop doing an activity that is no longer serving you so you can spend the time doing something more valuable. Consider what you are giving up in order to maintain your current activities.

9. Use a time management system

Using a time management system can help you keep track of everything that you need to do, organize and prioritize your work, and develop sound plans to complete it. An integrated system is like glue that holds all the best time management practices together.

10. Identify bad habits

Make a list of bad habits that are stealing your time, sabotaging your goals, and blocking your success. After you do, work on them one at a time and systematically eliminate them from your life. Remember that the easiest way to eliminate a bad habit, it to replace it with a better habit.

11. Don’t do other people’s work

Are you in the habit of doing other people’s work because or a ‘hero’ mentality? Doing this takes up time that you may not have. Instead, focus on your own projects and goals, learn to delegate effectively, and teach others how to do their own work.

12. Keep a goal journal

Schedule time to set and evaluate your goals. Start a journal and write down your progress for each goal. Go through your goal journal each week to make sure you are on the right track.

Keeping a journal on your computer has never been easier!

13. Don’t be a perfectionist

Some tasks don’t require your best effort. Sending a short email to a colleague, for example, shouldn’t take any more than a few minutes. Learn to distinguish between tasks that deserve to be done excellently and tasks that just need to be done.

14. Beware of “filler” tasks

When you have a to-do list filled with important tasks, be careful not to get distracted by “filler” tasks. Things such as organizing your bookcase or filing papers can wait until you tackle the items that have the highest priority.

15. Avoid “efficiency traps”

Being efficient doesn’t necessarily mean that you are being productive. Avoid taking on tasks that you can do with efficiency that don’t need to be done at all. Just because you are busy and getting things done doesn’t mean you are actually accomplishing anything significant.

How Do You Start With Your Personal Growth?

Filed under: Candiate & Corporate Tips — wanhanconsultants @ 6:31 am

Personal growth is a process that brings about personal change. Now, what can you do to improve your present situation? You wonder don’t you? Well, why not ask yourself a few questions.

  • Do you like where you are and what you have become?
  • Have you ever wished that your life was better?
  • Can your relationship improve?
  • Are you producing the results that you want?
  • What makes you feel good?
  • Why do you do what you do?
  • What triggers you to produce your behavior?
  • How do you reach the top rung and achieve success?

When you begin to ask yourself these sort of questions you will start looking for what works. And your journey to personal growth will begin.

Personal development requires personal change and it starts from within.

  • You need to improve on your self-awareness.
  • You need to work on your attitude.
  • You got to start believing in yourself.
  • You have to develop your skills.

The better you understand yourself the better you understand others. And the more your relationship will flourish.

You have to have a self improvement plan for your personal development and growth. And then take consistent and continuous actions.

You will do better if you work on yourself instead of worrying about your conditions. If you work on yourself, your life will change.

You have the choice to grow, learn, become the person you aspire and mastering your life. You can choose to stagnate, to hesitate, and remain fearful and doubtful and live in mediocrity.

You are responsible for your frustrations, indecision and lack of progress.

When you know in which direction you want to go and the lifestyle you want to have you will manage yourself. And you will change.

When you change you grow.

I’ll assist you the best I can in helping you find the answers. These are my point of views.

You decide what’s useful. It’s up to you to choose what’s valuable and important.

It is your choice.

Motivate Your Employees Through Recognition

Through out our career, we are reminded of how important recognition is in the workplace and in life. We want recognition, we thrive on it and it makes us feel good. Yet most of us do not give or receive enough of it.

Employee recognition is not just a nice thing to do for people. Employee recognition is a communication tool that reinforces and rewards the most important outcomes people create for business. As leaders we know that the secret to success is being able to draw out and encourage employees to be their best. Recognizing the strengths and contributions of those around us and taking the time to let them know how important they are is critical to organizational success. Human beings live and grow with praise.

Most employees say that they would love more money but what they want most is to be appreciated and recognized. Yet it is not happening in the workplace. Why are we hesitant to give recognition? Why do we keep the positive things to ourselves? Why do we believe recognition is someone else’s job? The answer is very interesting, the following things prevent our Leaders to recognize their Employees.

1) It’s scary. Giving recognition and praise is risky.

2) Employees might get a big head and stop working so hard. The opposite is actually true – employees will work harder when they know they are appreciated.

3) We don’t have time. I know we are all busy but that’s no excuse – we must make the time.

4) We don’t know how to do it. There are thousands of resources available. Google “employee recognition” and we will find lots of information to help us recognize the people we work with.

5) It’s not our job. Recognition is management’s job. While I agree management needs to recognize their employees but we all can make a difference by recognizing and letting our coworkers know how much we appreciate them. Recognition is everyone’s job!

6) We are not good with people. But we can learn – we all can. Attend a seminar, read a book and practice.

7) They will come to expect praise if we give it too often. I do believe we can praise too often if we always keep it real. Fake praise or recognition will never work.

8. We don’t see anything to recognize. Watch, listen and ask questions. The best way to recognize others is to be a good observer. All employees have some merits for which they can be recognized for.

9) It’s hard. Yes it can be hard and it takes time. Yet the rewards will outweigh whatever time and effort it takes.

10) We should get it first. The best way to begin the cycle of recognition is to be the one to give it. Recognition is contagious – and it may just come back to us!

Recognition takes time and commitment. Recognition is a life long journey both in our professional and personal lives. The better we are at recognizing others – the more excellence we’ll have in business and in life.
