Dear all, When I first started working as an HR Director, my boss, an elderly and wise English gentleman, sent me an email with the following advice: 1. Remember to treat everyone with respect. 2. Remember to meet employees on their level (developmentally). 3. Perception is 90% of reality. 4. Let your employees see you as a person, not just their HR Manager. 5. Study, study, study... all situations can be solved. 6. Take time for yourself (and your family). 7. Maintain relationships outside of your company. 8. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither will your company. 9. Be intentional and purposeful in what you do. 10. Working as a team with your fellow staff members is the key to success and your existence. 11. Remember to enjoy the experience. It will be one of the most rewarding you will have. 12. You will learn more than you think. 13. Your supervisor is the best resource you have. 14. There's no substitute for a good attitude. 15. New employees mess up, and that's okay. 16. Tough situations are an excellent time for learning. 17. You have one of the most important jobs in the company. 18. BE FAIR TO ALL. 19. There's no substitute for friendship and love. 20. There's no substitute for being human. Best wishes to all of you.
