Aphorism In Human Resource Management

• Reflect upon the role of learning and its importance to your personal growth and development.

I was able to relate my work tasks to my academic coursework in courses such as “Business Decision Models” (BU 275), “Business Law” (BU 231) and “Introduction to Managerial Accounting” (BU 247). However, I learned many new theories and practices through practical experience at EP Canada. My work term at EP Canada also enhanced my communication skills, in particular my business writing skills. I was also able to develop my interpersonal skills through collaborative work and attention-to-detail skills through individual tasks. I had the opportunity to interview my supervisor, Ms. Lindsay Temple whose

This quote has always been inspiring in my life. I believe learning is not limited to just the classroom but takes places through out our life. Right education not only enhances personal development and social inclusion, but also increases competitiveness.

Paolo Freire also support this concept by saying: ”Humility helps us to understand this obvious truth: No one knows it all; no one is ignorant of everything. (Page 39) I always make sure my students understand that I am still a “professional in Activity” and therefore I am constantly learning new techniques just like them.

I believe that one should constantly learn and seek new skills and information since it enhances one’s understanding of the world, provide opportunities, and develop skills. Committed to learning, I am willing to spend the necessary time to cultivate my mind in the quest for knowledge and I achieved this through diligence, perseverance, discipline, and by providing the best work possible in the workplace around me. This ambition to push for excellence would be a beneficial trait to have in the future, for I still strive to put quality into everything I do, even when I do not receive any recognition or praise, and this attitude would help me make rapid strides not only in my academic career but my life overall.

EDUCATION : “When an obstacle is tough, you try harder. When an obstacle is insurmountable, you change course.”

Passionate to know more, learn more, (he) sailed for France…in order to attend lectures at the Sorbonne” (McCullough, 2008/2012, p. 334). He felt this urge to learn more, so he sought and went after greater knowledge. He worked for it. I would like to repeat the quote by Abigail Adams, “Learning is not attained by chance. It must be sought with ardor and attended with diligence” (McCullough, 2008/2012, p. 334).

Learning is essential in the workplace because technology is rapidly advancing in the last few years. In this essay, I will focus on why work and learning in Canada most account for Canadian realities and management perspectives. A lot of factors help shape how work and learning in Canada account for Canadian realities and management perspectives. I will focus my discussion on sharing my personal experiences in regards to the role that management perspectives played on work and learning. I will also discuss my viewpoint on how the management perspective of Target, which is a giant American retailer played in its entry into the Canadian market. I think how the management feels about training their staff is the key to their success and the key in determining if a company is well managed or not.

People’s experiences shape their lives and influence the choices they make, their expectations, and formulate their behavior and mindset. I have always loved to learn! As a child, I was constantly at the library and playing school. I recall being in 5th grade when my teacher handed me the science manual and a box of equipment, and asked me to ‘figure it out’ and recreate it for the class. I couldn’t have been more thrilled!

I recently read in the book ‘Skills for Success’ by Stella Cottrell, that you need to take responsibility for your own learning and recognise your own learning preferences. This is a valuable thing to pick up on as being able to recognise how you learn best can help you complete a task to your best ability, and taking responsibility for you own learning rather than replying on others shows what a resourceful worker you can be. After reading this I realised the best

Our students feel this pressure and have internalized it into often anxiety causing levels. But don’t we want our students to wonder? Don’t we want them to develop a love of learning that leads to life-long discovery? Don’t we want to encourage them to inquire, experiment, create, and share? Yes, of course, we do. How do we foster these feelings? By embracing these ideas in our daily

An effective human resources (HR) strategy is the complete design, or strategic plan, that directs the engagement of specific HR functional areas. Subsequently, HR strategies will guide decisions about company personnel to make sure they are best suited for the company. For this to be successful, all of the functional areas of HR strategies must be directly compatible with the entire business strategy of the company (Wright, Snell, & Jacobsen, 2003). One such company that has been very successful in developing an HR strategy to support the overall business strategy, is the United Services Automobile Association, or more commonly known as USAA.

The field of Human Resources is full of difficulties and challenges. The business world has large expectations that are continually changing. How can a Human Resources Manager complete the necessary tasks to run a competent department while become the strategic partner and advisor that it needs to be? There are many paradoxes within Human Resources; probably more so than with any other profession. As a Human Resources professional, I have come across paradoxes in my career. I have not yet been at a level where I had to make the final decision and affect the company strategically. How will I balance paradoxes in my career?

With all that I had access to, how could this knowledge not be precious? That speech my father gave me, began to mean less ‘be grateful’ and more ‘waste not.’ That speech became the catalyst of my love for learning. I had the opportunity, so I wanted to learn everything. I wanted to try everything.

Do people learn because they are forced to, or do they do it because they want to? As I was contemplating the idea, I walked into the liturature room at the University of Southern Maine with my teammates. It was a cold winter morning, and I was representing my school at the Maine State Science Bowl. I started feeling tingles in my stomach as I sat down in the seat titled MSSM B one, because I needed to prove to myself that I was smart. Although the atmosphere unnerved me, I was distracted by an event from the day before.
