"Human beings are the most important, potent and critical, resource of any organization, and yet the least understood and the worst managed"

Absolutely! They composed the most essential aspect as the workforce of the company. And so, they are the most influential and critical resource of any organization. Yet maintaining a well-organized HR department is, I guess, the most tedious task to do. For manpower is the worst managed of all resources. Unlike documents and computers, people have their own minds, emotions, and principles, especially at work. Much more, they are a lot more than machines which can't voice out their grievances and just do exactly what you tell them to do.

Sometimes, human are they are the most neglected not knowing that they are the most important resource which can make or break a company. Industries are more focused on technologies especially on improving it for a better service but missed out the significance of the people using or manipulating the technologies. We admit the fact that we can't move or do much without technologies. But what is it without humans? That is why human resource has a vital part of a company and without them institution can't survive. We should give much attention to people(human) as an important resource especially on hiring them because it's not only the skills and abilities of this person which you needed in work and have to address with. It's an all-in-one package. you have to deal with them personally.

A visit to my assigned company!

Guys, i went to davao light and power company last June 28, 2008 for a Human Resource Department interview. It was a great and breath-taking experience because i go alone and took all the processes by myself. But though i made it myself, i enjoyed listening from an officer who shares ideas on how the company is worked out specifically human resource department. It was a day of realization about the importance of human as a main resource of a certain company.

The discussion made me value each employee in their specific task all the more. It also challenged me to devote more and focus on my studies to be one of the "resources" in the future.

Now, we need to be serious in our studies so that we will be responsible, good and with a high standard employee in an industry.

God bless!

HRM included in BSCS/BSIT curriculum

Human Resource Management is included in BSCS/BSIT curriculum because this subject deals with people. It helps a person be responsible in certain company.

In connection with the courses, we also deal with people. It is a very important subject for CS and IT because we manage people and considering the fact that people are a very important factor of a certain industry. Not long from now, we will be a part of business organizations, this would help us prepare ourselves in working environment in the future.

HRM will also help us connect ourselves one from the other as one body in a company. It will open us to valuing work and people as a very important resources of a company.

21st century corporations!

We are now living on the 21st century. But as we go through, with respect to technology, i think corporations will look like "machine-driven" companies. Most of the departments will be worked out with machines. So as the people working will be more competitive and creative. There will be no more "computer illiterate". On the other hand, i think there would be a lot of downsizing and more focused on people who can "do technologies" faster.

*Sir, i took this information from the net (http://www.businessweek.com/2000/00_35/b3696001.htm). I suppose to make my own words but i was struck by the comments of this article in which i want to add to my ideas(as written above).
*These are also factors that will affect our corporations on the 21st century:


*The Creative Economy
Which companies will thrive in the coming years? Those that value ideas above all else

*The Great Transformation
New technology, particularly the Internet, is reshaping the world's business terrain. Now, companies need a whole new set of rules

*The New Leadership
The accelerated pace and complexity of business will bring dramatic changes in the corporate hierarchy

*Architectural Visions
A look at offices that might have been. Plus, two award-winning architecture firms imagine the 21st century environment in photo essays

*The Corporate Ecosystem
The old boundaries--between public and private, foreign and domestic, friend and foe--are blurring. The effect will be liberating

*Back to the Future
Globalization presents a formidable challenge--but if the history of the last century is any guide, the corporation will endure
