Hi,
Professionals from every domain have their own image. I dont think we have to bother much about a HR person getting along with anyone. Who ever it mite be in an Organization its nothing to bother much till they deliver what they are expected to and till they are in discipline.

To be very honest after reading your posts I sometimes feel I am not matured enough as an HR professional to post replies to you.Still then I would just like to add I am facing situations out here where I feel as an HR that some changes should be done with regard to the salary date and work schedule but the management refuses to give in on these issues .If I follow your ethics then I can say its time for me to look for a change.But I will not do that I will try to "enlighten management" on these issues and try to bring changes .Moreover I am just at the begining of my career so I just cant give in so easily.
I strongly beleive HR is a profession of "values" but then again it needs "time" to create values .It also takes time to get "accepted" by the employees .I am putiing in my best efforts in both ,I just hope valuable suggestions from seniors like you keep pouring in .
Best Regards

I agree every profession has an image of its own .But I beg to differ with you when you say that we shouldnt bother about our image .I guess as one of our fellow members during this debate has rightly pointed out that an HR ' s image in the organisation is very closely observed by the employees and they also try to imitate the same .As the HR is the person who designs the policies with regard to telephone and Internet usage,time keeping etc so if an HR professional himself/herself is not disciplined on those parameters then it will be difficult to enforce the same on the employees. At the end of the day one needs to "practice what he preaches "

Dear Indu
I was going through the viewpoints being poured in by many of our Senior HR people. Well, I am also a novice in this domain and working with a mid-size IT firm. Initially, I also felt the same way but as the days are passing, I think I am improving each day.
Well, I understand bieng in HR team is not that easy but its challenging though. Rather, we should be boastful enough that we are acting as a conduit between the management & staff.
As far as the question of mingling with the staff is concerned, its purely upto us how we alter our attitude to make the best of the slightly tensed situation. This is something which comes gradually with experience.
I really look forward to the feedback from all the people who have participated.

I agree with you totally.In my past experiences I have learnt that mistake done by the HR can actually put a lot of things at stake .I would like to narrate an incident in this regard.I used to work for Bank as HR trainee and by mistake I misplaced a CV and as luck would have had it the CV was referred by the VP of the company,the music I faced for that mistake I will remember throughout my life .This incident actually taught me how important is record keeping and filing for the HR department.Even if both these activities sound very mundane and boring they are the core of HR
I also agree "with authority comes responsibility".HR takes care of every employees problem and has to absorb it like a sponge and react to it whenever necessary but he/she is also a Human being and might have problems too ,so who looks after an HR's problems ?...I guess HR himself :)

I agree with you that I have lots of work to do and too little time for that.I had to start the HR activities from scratch and for the 1st 10days I was continuously on "cite HR " to get the necessary information as these site has got info about A-Z of HR.Now the things are relatively streamlined.I would love to have "another pair of hands" helping me out but I guess at this point of time I would prefer working alone as I am enjoying designing and drafting policies and creating a new department altogether
Thanks for your suggestion,will put forward the same in front of the management once I have proved my worth to them :)

Thank you very much for your suggestions.I absolutely agree with you that I have got the power to do a lot of things which cant and that makes me feel special.It also makes me realise that my role is different and unique and may be that is why I am lonely but then again I guess that one has to remember that "there is only space for 1 person to stand at the peak of the mountain"

I know that as days will pass by, it will be easier for me to adjust with the situation ,these are perhaps the teething troubles,but then again as I have said earlier after going through so many posts on this topic I feel I am not lonely anymore I am a part(even if very small) of a big HR community where every member has gone through this phase of life at the begining of their careers
