Download or read book Up Down and Sideways written by Patricia M. Buhler and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In one recent survey of 400 companies with at least 100,000 employees, the companies cited an average loss per company of $62.4 million per year because of inadequate communication to and between employees.\ \In another survey, 80 percent of HR professionals reported interpersonal communication as very important when advancing their careers. Perhaps more telling, directors and C-suite executives placed an even higher value on the need for interpersonal skills in the HR role: A total of 87 percent of directors and 83 percent of C-suite executives identified these skills as primary for success.\ \The HR practitioner with strong communication skills will be strategically positioned to have a great impact in the workplace. The role of HR professionals has become increasingly complex--and is likely to become even more complicated in the foreseeable future. Today's HR professionals have taken on a more strategic role that has increased their visibility throughout their organizations. \\As strategic business partners, HR professionals interact with executives, line managers, rank-and-file employees, and outside stakeholders. With this increased visibility comes an opportunity to influence the organization and its strategic objectives. This opportunity, however, depends in large part on the HR professional's ability to effectively communicate up (to superiors), down (to subordinates), and sideways (to peers).\ \Up, Down, and Sideways: High-Impact Verbal Communication for HR Professionals was written to help HR practitioners--at all levels--become better verbal communicators, thereby making them better at their jobs and more valuable to their companies. In addition to general public and interpersonal speaking tips sprinkled throughout, the book specifically addresses the many hats of the HR professional. Whether in a generalist or specialist role, HR practitioners' wide range of responsibilities can only be effectively met with strong communication skills. Staffing the firm, training employees, developing and implementing policies, and integrating HR needs with the overall organization are all responsibilities that require effective communication.\ \Just as the SHRM's HR Competency Model helps individuals "develop a road map to achieve your HR professional goals," this book draws on the application of those competencies to assist the HR professional in making a measurable impact on the organization's goals and outcomes.\ \- See more at: http://www.shrm.org/Publications/Books/Pages/Up-Down-and-Sideways.aspx#sthash.4kqMAUU8.dpuf.

He shows how to take the initiative and control the agenda, respond to events with speed and focus, use the power of maneuver, prepare and plan, and put it all together, in order to become a "habitually strategic" communicator.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapidly transforming environment that we live in has made human resource development (HRD) all the more necessary for the success of today’s organizations. HRD initiatives help their organizations by developing employees who assist their organizations in not only surviving, but thriving in our increasingly global world. Today’s best practice or benchmarked organizations and their HRD professionals continue to recognize the importance of employee learning, knowledge, skills and motivation to organizational success. This recognition increasingly opens many doors as organizational leaders accept the fact that HRD initiatives can be used to ensure that organization members have what it takes to successfully meet the demands that confront them and their organizations. This book takes the position that HRD can demonstrate how their initiatives help to develop a superior workforce so that the organization and its individual employees can accomplish their strategic and operational goals in service to their clients or customers. This book is written with the belief that HRD professionals have many opportunities to learn, change and find ways both in and outside of the workplace to contribute to the development of learning organizations as we move further into the 21st century. A major point of this book is that HRD will continue to become more and more important to organizational success when one considers the increased responsibilities HRD professionals have taken on during and post- the COVID pandemic. The primary audience for this book is practicing HRM and HRD professionals, and other organizational leaders. The book provides proven ideas important to demonstrating the value of HRD. From a practical viewpoint, it is based on actual experience, a strong research base, and accepted practices presented in an easy to read form. A second target audience is students of HRD and HRM who are preparing for careers in this important field. This book will help them develop a solid foundation to the study of HRD practices or initiatives that are key to HRD success regardless of the type of organization. A third target audience is managers or leaders at all levels of an organization who are expected to take on a number of HRD responsibilities (e.g., as trainers, coaches, mentors, change agents, and so on) while regularly partnering with HRD professionals. It offers these individuals a firsthand look at what they should expect of their HRD functions or areas and how they can effectively work with HRD professionals in their organizations to achieve the organizations strategic goals by getting the most out of its human people.
