Skills looked for in the selection
process* Business Acumen - It's understanding exactly how your organization makes money and
what you as a HR professional can do to impact it positively. Business acumen has be thelodestone by which you measure and evaluate any HR initiative.
Communication Skills - It is painful when HR people don't get this one right. Written andspoken skills are both critical to being a successful and effective HR professional. It sendsout wrong messages about your capability when you cannot communicate anintervention/initiative's objectives and salient points in less than 50 words. Try it.
Inter-personal skills - Empathy. Respect. Listening. Openness. These are approaches thatyou are expected to have. But sadly, I have come across many HR leaders andprofessionals who are egotistical, snooty, pig-headed and totally disrespectful of others.They are also the ones who are servile to higher ups and contribute to the stories thatstress "HR is a spineless dictator". Don't be one of them.
Negotiation Skills - When you have chosen to be part of a function that is evaluated bywhat others do, negotiating goes from a life-skill to a critical to succeed professional skill.
