Dear All,

Kindly provide me with the details of how to stay updated if someone is working in a highly monotonous environment where they have very little time for new things.

Dear exploringtheworld,

Updating does not require much time and emphasis; there are a lot of things to learn from the live environment too. You can learn and practice handling a lot of live situations and it requires a lot of patience as well. Just take a look at the topics and discussions on this forum; I am sure it's going to help you. Good luck.

Thanks & regards,

Greetings,

What is your role? I understand that you have already tried every way out to break the monotony at your job. What scope do you have to observe the work that's being done around you?

Look out for incremental learning if your situation is too stuck. You may not be in a situation to go for new training, or even if you manage to attend a weekend session, you may not have the option to implement it. In such a scenario, please find my suggestion as noted below:

- Identify the different areas. No matter how established they are, segregate the workflows. Suppose recruitment and induction are combined with new hire integration as a single function. There can be several reasons for such a design, maybe low manpower or lesser hiring. Understand these reasons, map the workflow.

- When you start with this basic exercise, keep taking a re-look at the existing process and what is being followed in the industry. Draw your comparative charts and identify areas for improvements.

- It might be that you are not allowed to implement or even remotely suggest what you may find applicable. But remember, this is your learning process. Irrespective of the fact, whether you get to implement it or not, you would get an immense amount of learning as you do this exercise.

- Identify different practices and start learning more about them. For example, recruitment may be done differently in your organization. Identify why it is so. Go beyond your role and learn more about the work, the business model, and the competencies required in the talent who would deliver that job. Document this learning and identify how you can suggest better utilization of talent through creating a funnel.

- If you still don't find any such scope, take up any area of your interest in HR and start learning more about it. You may select training and development or compensation. Read what is available about them in this community, frame your questions, and connect with members to know more.

- Check your understanding in terms of forming policies and the statutory standards.

- Please remember your learning is not limited to the current role but far beyond it. Target yourself to excel in the industry as a whole. When you will start thinking on this line, you will realize how much you need to learn. Then no role or a job can limit you or be a point of distraction.

- Finally, whichever learning area you select, keep blogging about your plan and progress just as you did this time. Let everyone contribute to your learning. As you build your knowledge, try and coach someone. If you lack such a scope in the office, try it through communities. Empowering someone else on what you have learned so far will strengthen your knowledge and create newness in what you have been doing so far. It will make you think out of the box and take a completely different perspective on what you have been doing so far.
