“Key practices HR professional need to understand”
Human resource plays a great role in conducting the activities of the company. It has
been seen that without human resource professionals it is not possible for the company to
complete the activities in a proper manner. It is important for the human resource professional to
have a proper understanding of the practices so that they can give direction. It will also help to
accomplish overall goals and objectives of the company. In this paper, the discussion will be
made on the key practices that HR professional should understand. If HR professional of the
company is not able to understand the practices and how they should be performed or solved
then it can be difficult for them to maintain an effective environment in the workplace. There are
various key practices that should be considered by the HR professionals like skills, abilities,
conflict resolution, flexible work environment, training, and development, providing feedback
and also inspiring others. These all are the practices that will be discussed in this paper.
First key practice is related with the skills. It has been seen that human resource
professional should have proper knowledge of the skills. They should have proper knowledge of
evaluating the skills of the other person. If the HR professionals do not have knowledge about
the other skills then it can be difficult for them to give directions in a right manner. When they
have knowledge about the skills of the people or the employees then they can assign the task in a
proper manner. It is the responsibility of the HR professional to focus on the skills possessed by
an individual (Armstrong and Taylor, 2014). If they do not give focus on the skills then it can be
difficult for them to assign the activities according to the skill of an individual. It is seen that to
analyze the skill there should be an individual who can evaluate the skills possessed by an
individual. HR professionals should also have an effective skill like communication with the
employees in an effective manner, convincing skills and also the skill related to induce the
employees to perform a specific task or an activity. If these skills are not there then it is difficult
for them to practice the other activities in the company. Skills play a great role in completing the
assigned task or an activity. If an individual have the skill to deal with the situation or the skill
related to conducting the activities then it can be simple to achieve success in the competitive
environment. The practice related with the skill should be considered by the HR professionals so
that the activities can be conducted smoothly.

Next factor is related with the conflict resolution. It is important for HR professionals to
understand that how to solve the conflict that take between the individuals in an organization. It
has been seen that to manage the conflict in the workplace is the responsibility of the HR
professionals (Wallensteen, 2015). If they do not have the decision making skill then it can
create conflicts and it can give adverse impact on the performance of the employees. It has been
seen that it is important for the HR professionals to consider the practice and understand it in a
proper manner so that in workplace conflict can be minimized (Einarsen et al., 2016). In the
workplace they have the responsibility to solve the queries and the issues which take place
between the employees. To solve the conflict in the workplace is considered as a major practice
on which focus is given by the HR professionals so that in right direction activities can be
conducted. It has been analyzed that in workplace there are many employees who belong from
different culture or background (Currie et al., 2017). In this situation conflict can take place in
the organization so this is the duty of the HR professionals to focus on these situations and take
corrective steps so that in a proper manner the activities can be completed (Rahim, 2017).
So, this is one of the major practices of HR professionals that should be considered or
understood. The HR professionals should know the technique to resolve the issues and to take
corrective steps so that equality can be maintained in the workplace (Opie and Roberts, 2017). If
equality is maintained then growth can be easily maintained. In this it is also to give focus on
considering the restorative justice in that the people who have done something wrong or the
problem due to which conflict took place is resolved. Face to face interaction is done so that
issues can be resolved and relation which is affected can be maintained (Daly, 2016).
Next practice is related to the measurement of the abilities. HR professionals should only
conduct the activities by analyzing the abilities of the employees possessed by them. The
employees should be given the activities that can be done by them. If employees who do not
have the ability or the capability and assigned the task than it can give negative outcome and, it
can be difficult to conduct the activities in a right manner (Marchington, et al., 2016). If the right
task is given to the right person then it can be easy to achieve positive results in context to the
activities performed by an individual. This practice is considered by HR professionals in a proper
manner then it can be easy for the company to achieve success in the market or goals and
objectives can be achieved easily with this practice (Banfield, Kay, and Royles, 2018).
