Presented results and devised a business case for the Board members, detailing the impact, the financial gains both in purchasing the system and the saving it would inevitable produce, the time frame to implement and start analysing its effectiveness and any constraints it may show, which was very negligible.
Challenged reluctant Board Members, indicating the current productivity and impact of the department if they resisted change, including the financial, internal and external implications of having a high turnover of staff and inefficient processes resulting in low productivity. The Board have agreed with the change.
The next step, not taken place yet, is to meet with the team and individually, listen to any concerns, clarify the departments proposed structure, roles and responsibilities, where this is aligned to business strategy and goals and who will each be encouraged for a `buy in’
In other words, an HR professional needs to have the necessary ability, knowledge and skills in the field of people management. However, that is not enough. One also has to be able to apply them in a consistent manner, i.e. one has to be professional at all times, at the same, high, level. This means that it is important for a professional to continue to develop his/her competence, taking into consideration the continuously changing environment and demands.
To enhance HR effectiveness and provide value to the organisation the CIPD Professional Map sets out to define key professional areas and behaviours that a HR professional will need to develop within a generalist or specialist role. The map underpins knowledge, skills and behaviours and is organised in a progressive framework to meet organisational demands. HR objectives and strategies focus on the internal and external context that the organisation operates within and as a result, HR practitioners require strategic insights in order to implement proactive HR strategies aligned with organisational objectives.
Worked with business to analyze and evaluate the system program design and provided feedback on the research done.
The report will discuss the CIPD HR Profession Map and how the framework and standards within it define a HR professional. The professional areas, the bands and the behaviours will be outlined and the two core professional areas as well as two behaviours will be evaluated to explain how they uphold the concept of ‘HR Professionalism.’ Examples from the knowledge and activities in band 2 will be used in support.
The HR profession Map captures what successful and effective HR people do and deliver across every aspect and specialism of the profession, and sets out the required activities, behaviour and knowledge.

The HRP Map covering of 10 professional areas, 8 behaviours and 4 bands. Sarah Miles (2009), CIPD organizational development director, said: "This is a complete rethink of professional standards, not just a simple face-lift, and that 's not something you can turn around in a short time."
In 2009 the CIPD conducted a report on what human resource practitioner's did, their roles, and activities.They interviewed practitioner's from a large number of professions across different sectors and the result was the production of the HR professional map, that does not focus on job titles, but instead focused on the skills and behaviours. It is simple, flexible and can be used as a whole or in part. Starting with and including the two core professional areas, it consists of ten professional
The HR Profession Map is available on the CIPD website and enables CIPD members to carry out a self assessment online and receive expert advice and guidance, in turn helping them to reach their professional goals.

It is the map that directs the HR Professionals at each level (generalist or specialist) to figure out what they need to do so as to deliver correct output at whichever stage of the career they are working at. The map is a threshold set for the individuals exhibiting HR excellence.

The map is ever-evolving so as to combat the ever increasing needs of this profession.
While researching on my chosen career path, I have noted expected growth in areas of Human Resources, and will attempt to place myself into those thriving roles by developing a long-term plan.

Aside from this, what other skills and qualities do you think are necessary for HR professionals today?
Finally, the effectiveness of prototyping was applied (See Appendix B.1). Effectiveness? Prototyping allows for a feel of the system even before it is completed. Employees would be given the opportunity to clarify their information needs as they review iterations of the new systems, as a result they would become familiar with the system while being trained by the outsourcing consultants.
