Greetings!!!
Dear All,
I need your advice.
I am a south Indian girl, earlier I was working in a Consultancy as a Sr. Recruiter.
I have recently joined a broking firm as a HR. There was no HR department in my present organisation and hence I am given a designation of HR Manager. All other employees of this Organisation are Gujaratis.
Two of my seniors are so far good to me. The problem I am facing in this organisation is that people at the managerial level do not speak with me in a good way. For instance people (managers) of other department are curious to know whatever I am doing. To site a example, we introduced signing of attendance in the register. for which a manager asked me "N" number of questions before signing that like "Who all would sign this" and similar incident happened now when v are introducing attendance software. A card was given to every employee along with a plastic cover, this manager just threw that card on my table saying that its torn give me another. This person is close to one of the Director's of the Company. (I have not told about this behaviour to my seniors who are also director's, as i believe HR is to solve problems and not bring up issues)
The other incident was that a director himself spoke to me in a rude way regarding some holidays for which i replied "if you being a director speak to me in such way what can i expect from others. Its hardly two weeks since i have joined".
Though there is no major problem right now but i would like to know whether i was right in saying those sentence and also guide me how do I cope this language distinction, as I am on a probation period now.
Awaiting your advices..
Regards,
Rashmi
