iii. Directing: When the plan is prepared and gets implemented than its results are based upon
the dedication of the employees or the people who are going to execute or perform the tasks.
HRM is responsible for increasing and improve the morale of the employee through directing
them for the career plans and providing attractive salary plans (Ferraris, Erhardt, and Bresciani,
2019).
iv. Controlling: This is the fourth important function of HRM; this function is all about to
check that plans which are designed are conducted appropriately or not. The results which are
obtained throughout the process are compared with the standard values (Peccei, and Van De
Voorde, 2019).
Career Planning Strategy
People or the authority who designs the human resource management which holds the critical
functions of the organization leads the company towards success or failure. The HR executives
get the training to recruit the people and to direct the employees to achieve the career goals
which help them to improve their careers, to make them motivated. There are some necessary
factors which are necessary for the position of HR in an organization (Kim, Kim, Choi, and
Phetvaroon, 2019). These factors or requirements are described below:
• Education: For the position of HR executive an individual required the bachelor’s degree.
The community of the human resource management provides the degree program in which
business, mathematics, economics, behavioral and social science are included. For this position,
the advanced program of MBA with the specialization of HR is included. The individual can also
select the master’s program associated with organizational behavior, organizational
development, and psychology of organization or human resource management.
• Certification: In some of the major areas for the position of HR executive the certification is
required which is approved by the professionals of Human resources. Some companies recruit
the individual for HR executive who works on the designation for example at certified

Human Resource Department 5
compensation professional (CCP), Global Remuneration Professional (GRP), and Certified Sales
Compensation Professional (CSCP), etc.
• HR Experience: The most important qualification for any relevant work is experienced in the
same sector. It may include the experience of the 8 to 10 years as an HR or any senior role in the
division of an organization where the individual works as a specialist of leadership. The
individual must have a wide knowledge of human resource for the position of HR in which
selection, training, recruiting, leadership development and organizational design are included.
• Industry Experience: The concerns which rise or the focus of the HR executive keeps on
varying with the industry. Most of the companies look for the individual who has the experience
as HR executive in the same sector so that he/she remains familiar with the industry or the
environment.
For every organization, HRM is the most critical sector which holds the responsibilities which
leads the organization to achieve its goals. The HR executive must be confident while recruiting
the employees, there should be good observation skills to examine the candidate(de Oliveira,
Cavazotte, and Alan Dunzer, 2019). The individual must have good interpersonal skills so that
he/she can communicate with the candidate or employees without any challenge. The HR
executive should have brief knowledge about statistics and finance.
Adult learning principles and Theories of HRM
According to one of the researcher proposed their perception of adult learning who identifies that
adults are now days getting self-directed. In every organization, managers should be considered
for the adult learning process. These learning are essential because it keeps them motivated and
helps them to avoid distractions.
Use of Life and experience: Individual who have the experience about the family, work and
education they can use their experience by sharing it with the younger employees relating with
the theories which help them to gain the knowledge about the function of the organization.
Appeal to goals: Generally adults are focused on their goals which they want to complete. They
always found the environment which is necessary for resolving the results of their learning.
Adults have to explain their younger employee about the importance of the training required for
improving the goals of their career.

Relate the leaning with the work: It should be the responsibility of the learner that they relate
their learning with their work. All the theories and concepts can significantly use in operational
work. They should know about the task or the activity which they are performing.
Reflecting Respect: Higher authorities of the organization and managers should understand the
importance of the training or working capacity required for the learners (Juarez-Tarraga,
Santandreu-Mascarell, and Marin-Garcia, 2019). Every individual joins any organization for
their growth so it is the responsibility of the organization to show them benefits so that they can
work in a better way.
Theories of Human Resources
The theories of human resources explain the management behavior and structures which are
responsible for the positive and negative impact on the employee. If any organization has the
appropriate knowledge about the theories of human resource and the methods to implement them
that such organization will hardly face any challenge to obtain the productivity and creativity
from their employees (Bui, Chau, and Cox, 2019).
Theories of performance
The aim of the HR theories is to obtain two results to increase the number of motivated
employees and to increase the effective performance in the job. According to Henri Fayoi who
was a famous researcher the results from the performance of workers will be efficient when they
will observe the organization is working for them an inefficient way (Tweedie, Wild, Rhodes,
and Martinov‐Bennie, 2019).
Theory of Motivation: According to Abraham Maslow who was the first person to propose any
theory for the HRM which helps to understand the factors which motivate any individual; they
explain that needs of any person are organized in a pyramid. Basic needs such as shelter, food,
etc. are placed at the bottom of the pyramid and they are necessary to meet first. If these needs
get completed for an individual he started to feel safe and look after for the other opportunities of
their life. All of the needs to be increased when moving above in the pyramid (Chau, and Liu,
2019), therefore an individual who is considered about the job or afraid for the job than he/she
wants to meet all of the requirements it will motivate that person if the all of needs get achieved.
