Ever wondered what it’s like to be, perhaps, the most important person in an organization - the HR Manager? Yup, you read that right! No organization can survive even a day without the person responsible for the well-being, performance, and cohesion of employees.  But, what’s it like to be THAT person? What are the ups and downs of the role? What kind of decisions do they take? And how important are they really? Wonder no more, because we’re bringing you 4 insider perspectives into the role of an HR Manager.

      1. The Most Underestimated Domain - HR - Sailesh Hota, XLRI Jamshedpur

Most of the HR activity we see day-to-day is front-end work which is highly visible. Here's some of the background work that HR Managers actually do which contributes to the growth of any organization:

      2. I Left My Singapore Job To Pursue Core HR & Got A Pay Cut, Ft. Siddharth Vishwanath, HR Head @ Mensa Brands

HR is for women and there is not much you can do except for making Rangolis! These probably are the most heard myths that you must have also heard at some point in your life. But, we today have someone who can help you understand the real meaning of building a fruitful career in HR; Siddharth Vishwanath, Head of HR at Mensa Brands. Siddharth Vishwanath has worked in the retail, e-commerce, automotive, media, and IT domains in the last 13 odd years and has understood the true potential of an HR career and the kind of impact they can make on businesses.

      3.  Why Not HR? -  Saranya Mukherjee, TISS Alumna

During my summer internship, I had to take some interviews of sales executives of the organization. Since they were all geographically dispersed, I scheduled the interviews after a workshop they were all attending together. Out of curiosity, I also attended the workshop myself. It was about accelerated sales: how to get your customer to open up to you, how to leave a good impression on the customer, and most importantly, how to be sincere before the customer. The facilitator was giving practical tips, throwing in keywords that come in real handy when sealing a deal. It caught my interest and I improvised my interview flow to incorporate what we had just learnt in the workshop. This set of interviews actually went better than the ones I had taken prior to attending the workshop!

     4.  HR Professionals Don't Just Make Rangolis, They Are The Trend Sensors Ft. Harshita C, ex Nestle

Continuing her talk about the HR profession, Harshita takes us through her stint at Honeywell, where she did a Learning and Development role. A TISS alum, she has worked with big companies like Mondelez, Colgate-Palmolive, Honeywell, and Nestle, currently holding a senior position with Freshworks. She talks of the challenges that an LnD Professional faces, and how they deal with varying ranks of businesses, right from fresh joinees to the top brass. Each rank requires a different kind of program to be designed, and each requires special care.
