Human Resource Professionals: Being Facilitators





“People never fail Organizations, Organizations fail people!” says Seema Hallon, the Regional Manager of Dun and Bradstreet for Southeast Asia and MENA region.

On the 9th of February, Ms. Seema Hallon, visited the campus for a second time and delivered a powerful discourse to the students of IMT-D.

The session highlighted the importance of an HR department in an organization. The HR department analyses and evaluates key performance indicators, identifies the key customers, the business model and the business’s investment plans before making the policies and implementing them.An HR department does not coordinate, they facilitate effective decision making. HR professionals are not line managers; they are the strategic partners of a business who help develop policies that are relevant to the current situation.

The HR department also functions as an employee champion. Creation of policies that are beneficial both to the employee and the organization is no easy task. When an employee is happy in the organization, they perform. For, performance is nothing but the sum of knowledge, skill and attitude of an individual.

Last but not the least; she encouraged the students to take an introspective journey so that they can face the challenges that occur during recessionary times.

Team METH...!!
