A Great HR Manager

  August 03, 2023    8 comments

 


It is not easy to become a great HR manager. This necessitates a significant amount of effort, experience, and consistent experimentation with new technology.

The HR manager is responsible for assisting the organization in staying on track. The HR manager should take pride in being the organization's backbone.

There are two broad approaches to human resource management. There are two types of HRM: hard HRM and soft HRM. Managers of human resources or HR departments who use both hard and soft approaches have the best HR practices in the organization. (Anon., n.d.).

In Hard HRM, employees are treated as a business resource, similar to machinery or a building, whereas Soft HRM treats employees as the most important resource in the business. Hard HRM is primarily concerned with corporate business planning with resources, whereas soft HRM considers employees as individuals with unique needs and plans accordingly.

Hard HRM also focuses on the workforce, recruiting, and managing accordingly.

For example, hiring, relocating, firing, and so on.

Soft HRM, on the other hand, focuses on the needs of employees.

For example, their role, rewards, motivation, and so on.
