The job of any HR manager is to handle to problems that arise frequently for the employees. It is highly important to solve those issues in a pragmatic manner. This leads to employee satisfaction and helps the manager to seamlessly integrate with the working population. However, this is said easier than done. Working and managing ambitious people in the team is a real difficult task. The human thoughts will wander at the speed of air. The employees can destabilize the company operations if they are not handled properly. The HR managers have to treat co-employees in the most pristine ways. Every difficult person you meet in the office in the form of colleague, friends, boss will throw you an opportunity to understand the intellectual way of handling problems. Pragmatic Managerial Qualities: The coping skills can be learned by the practical approach. The culture of the company plays a vital role which should give a free hand for the managers to deal with the problems. It should have an employee friendly norms. I would like to mention a few of the best practiced approaches in Google INC, India. The company has not any fixed timings for the work. The best thing is that employees can select their own list of holidays and they can initiate their process of promotion on self. Personal targets will be set for every employee and if the results are achieved, employees can raise the request on their own. The best thoughts, innovations, ideas are allowed to be scribbled on the inner doors of bathrooms. Can you ever believe this? The HR managers and the management think about all possible ways that will create a better working environment. Most of the companies allow their employees to work from home. A recent survey conducted by Economic Times reports that out of 5 top companies in India to work for, 2 companies have an average working age as 26-28. It is clear that the present day HR students are going to be a part of these companies and they have to evolutionalize this approach in other companies too. Those companies were able to attain that status because of the employee friendly policies. The HR management teams have worked ruthlessly in solving all the issues and offering all the comfort they need. Conflicting Expectations: When the team expects something from an employee, it sets itself to a stage of disappointment. Sub-ordinates and higher officials will pose great danger to your career especially when they stand in between and prevent you from executing your action plans. They might not allow you to proceed with your thoughts. Under these circumstances, take your time to react. Hasty decisions will never reap dividends. Make sure you do not become an enemy for any of your team mates. There are lots to discuss regarding this issue. I would like to continue the article tomorrow. So enjoy reading.
