Hi,
As far as my knowledge is concerned, it is really quite difficult to explain the exact way of execution in actions as well as in attitude. We need to keep ourselves in the system in order to change the system. Hence, active participation, coordination, and cooperation are inevitably integral parts to establish the role. Additionally, an effective communicator can convey the exact message to the target, which is an important characteristic of an ideal HR Manager.
In relation to that, last but not least, discipline in actions and attitude will motivate others to follow your words. Discipline doesn't imply that we should not have lunch with workers or mix with them. Our body language should convey a message to other workers to motivate them to work. Furthermore, I welcome all other suggestions if I am missing something about HR.
Besides this, being legally sound is most important not only to act smartly and confidently but also to enable us to cope with situations accordingly, without which it is quite difficult to survive in the manufacturing industry, given the bitter truth of life, "Survival of the fittest."
Thank you,

Dear Sanjeev,
Such a challenging question you asked. In my experience, the following three skills are needed for an HR professional:
1) Commanding Skills
2) Neutral and Peaceful Mind
3) Caring Nature
I am giving priority to the above top 3. The reason why I put soft skills last is that the top three themselves encompass soft skills when we have them separately.

Sanjay:
A true HR professional is many rolled into one: analytical, diagnostic observer, and appraiser. They must be objective, a good listener, and an effective communicator. They are part of the organization yet stand as an outpost of all-weather shelter. They should be able to hear beyond what they listen to, see what may be shielded, and understand the conflicts that may arise while acting as a pacifier philanthropically. A mentor rather than a preacher, they must be a friend who can indicate shortcomings, willing to call 'a spade a spade' without uttering the word 'spade,' and indeed a no-nonsense person.

HR professionals should know what your respective organization's strategy is and what will make your organization's business thrive and grow.
Hence, have a tailored approach accordingly.

In most companies, the practice is to keep Monday as the joining day. However, the joining day can be any day of the week except weekends. If your company does not work on Saturday and Sunday, they cannot keep these two days as joining days.

@ Poongodi, you listed some really nice points, however, I need to understand few things:
1) Leadership Skills: Why everyone in the HR department needs to have leadership skills? What do they lead? Employees of the organization are lead by department heads and department heads are lead by the management or the board. I believe all HR professional needs to have the skill of collaboration.
2) Problem Solving: Whose problem solving – the company or the employees?

@ Tarannum, you can issue an appointment letter on any day of the week, including Sunday, at any time of the day, be it midnight or any other time. However, you cannot ask someone to join on the weekend, Saturday, or Sunday if the company is not working on those days. Joining can only be on weekdays or working days of the company.
