The HR Professional Map

In 2009 the CIPD conducted a report on what human resource practiti wizardrs did, their roles, and activities. They interviewed practitioners from a large number of professions across diverse sectors and the result was the production of the HR professional map, that does not focus on job titles, but instead focused on the skills and behaviours. It is simple, flexible and usher out be used as a whole or in part. Starting with and including the two impression professional atomic number 18as, it consists of ten professional areas, eight behaviours and four competency ties.It describes what you need to know and what you need to do, within to each one professional area at four circuits of professional competence. in that respect are eight behaviours that need to be paradeed by HR professionals these are, collaborative, driven to deliver, courage to challenge, role model, curious, decisive thinker, skilled influencer and personally credible. These behaviours are displayed in eac h of the professional areas. there are four bands of competence that sic the theatrical role of professionals at each stage of their life, it details the transactionhip with client, assistance to client ,focus of operation and where time is spent.It also details measures of success and contribution and the relative skill vestibular sense between behaviours and technical ability. The two core professional areas that relate to all HR professionals, at all career levels and job roles, these are Insight, strategy and solutions. There are five activity areas, make a picture, developing actionable insight, delivering situational HR solutions that stick and building capacity and capability that detail tasks that you are required to perform in each capability band. There are also four areas of knowledge.Business, contextual and organisational knowledge and HR professional knowledge. Leading HR, emolument delivery and information. There are six activity areas, along with tasks perf ormed at each band level, theses are Personal leadership,Leading others, Leading IssuesHR function design and serving delivery,HR resource planning and development, delivering value and performance in HR teams and managing HR budgets and finances. The knowledge areas for this core professional area are Leadership, HR service delivery models, Commissioning services and Resource, Performance and Financial management.Employee relations is one of the remaining eight professional areas, an Employee relations professional is required to display knowledge of a strong understanding of employment law, or digest access relevant,current and planned changes to laws relevant to the organisation. There is also a necessity to identify and act to mitigate risk to the organisation, have the knowledge of employee relations risks, and is able to coach managers to resolve emersions, they will also know how to analyse, collate and feedback on communications and messages heard.Activities completed by an Employee relations practitioner are grouped under the headings, Employee relations strategy, policy and practice. Policy, advice and guidance. Complex casework. Collective duologue and consultation and Health and well organism. When an Employee relations Practitioner is displaying competences in band two they will be reactive in most activities, issue lead dealing with current or near term issues. Behaviours that I consider to be displayed by an Employee relations Practitioner are being a decisive thinker, driven to deliver, courage to challenge, personally credible and a role model.The activities I consider to be relevant to an ER adviser in the organisation I worked in are to develop umbrella guidance to managers on ER issues, give accurate and appropriate advice , nurture and support managers. Work closely with managers, instructing them on their role and required actions, guardianship appropriate records and represent the organisation at external tribunals. The skill ba lance between technical ability and behaviours displayed should be 5050 and a measure of success would be for issues/ problems satisfactory resolved and repeat business.
