Course Overview
Today’s Human Resource department plays a far more prominent role in the management and oversight of organisations than was previously the case. This is because it has become generally accepted that an organisation’s workforce – its people – are its most valuable resource and an organisation cannot succeed without eectively managing this resource.
The HR professional therefore has one of the most important roles in the organisation, overseeing sta recruitment, training and development, shaping and dening culture, motivating the workforce and resolving disputes and grievances.
This course will utilise case studies, best practice examples and delegate experiences to provide participants with a thorough and holistic understanding of the HR function and the role of the modern HR professional. In addition to this the course also explores how the HR department has evolved, how it now ts into the rest of the organisational structure, and the challenges and responsibilities it now faces.
