and procedures, the most critical among them being the
Performance appraisal system.
5. Encourage all line managers and functions to

Firms, which don't have unions, it must represent
Employees to the management.

Hello Pandeyji,
The information you provided is great. Can you please elaborate on the third point, "Listen to the problems of employees and line managers and take their feedback in the right perspective." At least cite an example for it.

Good one, Krishna.
H.R. must also be able to work out their balance sheet and be able to place it in with the other units/departments' balance sheet in the company's overall balance sheet. Mere understanding is far from being enough. H.R. must be able to work through a balance sheet, understand the nuances of the drivers, revenue, and costs, be able to hold, show their bottom lines, and above all be seen and felt as a unit that has as good an appreciation of what it takes to drive the organization. All this must be demonstrated. This will earn H.R. the opportunity to occupy the corner office in the organization. :D A.S. Prasad.
