Hi All
I second Bob Gately on
There are lots of things a HR manager needs to undertake in his functions which needs to have an indepth knowledge of the HR procedures. Further he should have knowledge of Personnel Laws also...
Further, As Dr. [Col] B.D.Gupta [BTect-IIT,MTech, MBA, PhD] say about Engineers that to make them managers, first de-engineer them
His philosophy stated that Engineers have a tolerence level of 0.001% which is not very good for people management where the Tolerence level requirement is much much higher..
An MBA degree, can enhance there view and the engineer can then have a broader understanding of the business and HR function, to handle the people more effectively.

I agree on this point by Bob Gately
Good Point, Formal Education in management can help you to get a role in management, otherwise you have to wait for a chance when you get noticed for your management skills.

If it wud have been d case y u guys suggest freshers in dis field to read magazines n hr journals, to get associated to professional bodies, a formal education gives an insight into a particular field n helps to develop ur skills pertaining to dat particular area n makes u upperhand to dose who dun hv dat degree.

Of course! But as others have indicated some further training would be in order. A capacity to think strategically and to advocate for both the employees and the organisation are essential.

I think that reading of magazines, journals and membership of the professional bodies are like iceing on the cake.. They polish you in the subject and help you keep in touch with the latest trends in the industry..
But without the basic knowledge, this won't help... It is a must to have a basic knowledge to head a functional department...[i.e. HR, Finance, Accounts, Operations, R&D etc]
