We roam the work area to see, who all are gossiping or using their phones during work. The policies implemented by the HR department are largely in favor of management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a fallacious fact that HR is a spy of top management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather, HR is the strategic business partner and wants to ensure a positive and productive working environment for all. This may sometimes seem like we are enforcing rules, policies, and processes, but this is just to ensure productive and disciplined surroundings. We always try to keep a check on employees\u2019 satisfaction, not to catch them, rather to match them.

The most exciting is an increment call, isn\u2019t it! So, its not always to fire people, most of the time, it is to bring a smile to people\u2019s faces.

Anyone can do the job of HR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As time changes, many people have evolved into their roles. Being a peoples\u2019 person is not a cup of tea for all. It requires specific skills to be an expert at this. An HR professional is a fusion of these marvelous skills, starting with people advocacy, interpersonal communication, administrative expertise, HR domain knowledge, business acumen, data literacy, time management, confidentiality and flexibility approach, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em><mark style=\"background-color:#ffffff\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">To succeed as an HR professional, specialization is a must.<\/mark><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em><mark style=\"background-color:#ffffff\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Fairy Tale Myth #6\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0It\u2019s a woman\u2019s job!<\/mark><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"424\" height=\"220\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lng-consultancy.com\/staging\/5474\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/image-5.png?resize=424%2C220&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8940\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lng-consultancy.com\/staging\/5474\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/image-5.png?w=424&ssl=1 424w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lng-consultancy.com\/staging\/5474\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/image-5.png?resize=300%2C156&ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 424px) 100vw, 424px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we say HR, we get a clear picture of a woman in mind, making calls to consultants, welcoming new joiners, making rangolis, announcing fun activities, and a lot more. The fascinating part is that when we say HR, most people hear HR-woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is one of those half-truths. The lion\u2019s share is, men are not only restricted to pursuing an educational or professional degree in HR; rather, they entered corporations as HRs.
