According to me good HR is a person
who does not discourage other
who does not dominate
always motivate person and encourage a person working under him or her
don\'t continuously keep on talking out faults
be polite
give respect
use proper training
use videos and power point presentation for explanation
use board for giving training
dont simply take the person out for not doing proper billing-usha

Hi All,
In my opinion, and HR has to:-
1) Have a human approach towards all (top or low or middle employees)
2) Clear knowledge and understanding of company working and policies (which helps HR in recuritment, training, devising PMS, employee queries)
3) Be honest to his/her work and Know that All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy (meaning - to enjoy and create a good and healty work environment. This clearly doesn't mean breach of company policies on basis of frinedhsip or relation etc.)
Obviously the other qualities mentioned by others are all to be considered.
I might be right or wrong or neutral.
Do reply so I can know about it.
"Thanks all"

Hi Aparna
I don't believe that having a good rapport with all staff in a company devalues HR. It will give you a good idea on the character of each individual member of your company. Sometimes you get to know the root of some HR issues which helps you to rectify for the better of the company and staff. We people working in HR must understand each individual staff working under our company in order to maintain a healthy relationship between colleagues. HR people should know our area of what we can talk or discuss about about for different level of staff. We should be able to handle ourselves without creating any differences between our colleagues. As long as we always remember which role we play in our companies it doesn't matter we have lunch or breakfast with them.
Although above is my opinion, different companies have different cultures and different ways. See in your case if you can figure out a way to balance both sides.

Hi! All,
I joined this site quite recently and am currently working as Assistant Manager for Admin & HR of a company.
Even though new to this network I would like to give my view in this regard; we cannot define HR into any restricted three skills. Those who have been in this field for a long period will know that most of the tasks highlighting HR intervenes with skills more than three and all those skills mentioned above plays very important and vital part in our application of HR in the work environment. Even a minor fact or skill can be the greatest advantage in different circumstances.

Very well noted HR Professionals already made excellent comments on Sanjeev Himachali's question.
In my opinion and to keep it simple:
A = Attitude (Appropriate attitude, empathy, unbiased, impartial towards the Human Capital of entire Organization)
S = Skill (Adequate skills in Communication, Negotiations, Conflict Management and various other skills as required by HR Professional)
K = Knowledge (Thorouh knowledge of HR Policies, Company philosophy, culture & Practices etc)
Those who are good at the above THREE "A S K", I think they can really be the professional HR.

Thanks friends for your feedback and sharing your thoughts. As someone mentioned, skills required for HR professionals to be successful in their role cannot be limited to three numbers or three pointers. As per my experience and knowledge, three traits or skills that have defined my success (if only I am considered as successful) are:

1) Good Communication: HR professionals are expected to be a great communicator. They must be able to read and write in an understandable manner.

2) Collaborators: Not all HR professionals need to be great leaders but all HR professionals are expected to be awesome collaborators. They are expected to collaborate between management and employees and they are also expected to collaborate among various departments, branches and regional offices.

3) Subject Matter Experts: All HR professionals are expected to have a strong hold in their area of specialization, be it Training and Development, Talent Acquisition, Compensation and Benefits, Talent Management, Employee Relations, etc. In fact, they should be master of at least three of all the above mentioned specialized areas.

These traits and skills have helped me to carve out a route for myself.

Thanks,
