[Blog 2] 5 Things to Look Out for in HR Experts

HR experts play a key role in almost every business today. From implementing company policies and regulations, to managing people-related processes, HR experts help to mould a high performance culture in companies and achieve long term growth.

But with so many potential HR experts out there, how do you find the right HR expert to trust your company with?

Here are 5 things to look out for when finding the right HR expert:

  1. Trustworthiness

This may seem obvious, but with HR managers handling highly confidential information such as pay and benefits, and dealing with workplace issues, it is crucial that your HR expert is someone that you and others find credible.

After all, who would confide in someone they do not trust?

  1. Solutions-Orientation

Regardless of what company that you are in, there will always be times of conflict. Since HR experts will often be the ones people turn to for mediation and solutions, your HR expert should thus be someone that is impartial, solutions-oriented, and great at negotiation. Rather than avoid unclear issues or uncomfortable situation, the right HR expert would instead try to discover a resolution that satisfies all parties involved, resolving the tension.

  1. Technology Savviness

The 21st century is one that frequently sees the use of digital platforms and automated systems. As such, find a HR expert that is technologically savvy, and takes the initiative to find new programs or technological solutions that can help to automate or improve your existing processes, granting your company greater efficiency.

  1. Purpose-Focus

Your HR expert is essentially also the manager of human resources in your company. Tasked with delivering the right human resources to your company and resolving conflicts, it is thus important that your HR expert understands your company’s purpose and is committed to it. This means knowing the challenges faced by the company, and even the reasons that motivate employees to work hard, so that he or she can help to steer your company towards fulfilling its purpose.

  1. Managerialism

Beyond resolving conflicts and coming up with new employee policies, HR managers are also tasked with providing training to employees and management. Your HR expert should thus be familiar with the skills and training required by employees to do a good job, and be able to provide them with opportunities to get them up-to-date with their roles, allowing employees to grow in their jobs and succeed.

Ultimately, HR experts should be passionate about finding the right solutions to help your company and its employees thrive.
