1. How I developed HR Teams – Center of Excellence
When developing an HR team:
1. I always understand the team development needs and strengthens
2. Have a clear objective of where I want to go with the team
3. I develop 3 things:
o Passion – Have HR passion to never stop knocking on doors for opportunities to
engage
o Intellect – Smart enough to know what the right thing to do is and be politically
savvy to know what not the right thing to do is.
o Curiosity – Driven enough to always want to make things better – continuous
improvements
4. Make decisions quickly but correctly – get the right people on the team bus
5. Surround myself with people who are better & have confidence
6. HR people that are self-motivation is key
Being part of awinning team:
1. If have the right people, the function will drive itself
2. Culture has to be demonstrated – it’s not that easy to “create”
3. Do 100 things 1% better – aggregation of small things – detailed orientation
4. Being in a great team means constantly challenging yourself and your teammates
Leading an HR Team:
1. A great team starts with the right leader – driven &belief & humility& respect
2. Create a HR team that wants to supporteach other
