Overview
This is the first in a series of HR Inbox assignments, each approached from the perspective of a different HR function relevant to the module in which it is due. This assignment focuses on the roles and responsibilities of HR, facilitating culture change, and providing opportunities for employee career planning.
Communication is a two-way channel for an HR professional. Organizations rely on human resource professionals to advise and consult with employees on policies, procedures, organizational goals, employee development, etc. As HR professionals engage with employees, their goal is to provide positive experiences that result in retention and the reduction of risks. An employee-centric approach that is conducive to professional and proper communication techniques can enhance employee morale, increase employee engagement, and support an inclusive work atmosphere. In this series of human resources Inbox assignments, you will practice applying the type of informal, yet accurate communication needed for chat instant messaging tools in the modern workplace.
