Which would you like to develop?

In achieving success for human resource management, having the right and qualified
abilities to do something effectively is surely an important part of this process. There is an array
of competencies which provides a standard for attitude and behavior for success in an
organization. First, human resource expertise; this pertains to the functions of human resource
management, which include using human resource technology, applying policies and
procedures, and keeping up to date on HR laws. Second, relationship management; this
involves socializing, which focuses on interactions for producing services, and at the same time
support one’s organization. Third, consultation; this refers to guidance for others in the
organization. Fourth, leadership and navigation; from the word leadership, it is a way of leading
an organization’s programs and the like to be kept in the right track. Fifth, communication; this
deals with having the necessary skills to attain different information and knowledge with others
both inside and outside the organization. Sixth, global and cultural effectiveness; this value and
considers the perspective of other people coming from different cultures. Seventh, ethical
practice; this deals with applying core values such as integrity and accountability. Seventh,
critical evaluation; a crucial step in any organization since it deals with analyzing and
interpreting of information needed in business decisions. Lastly, business acumen, which deals
with attaining certain knowledge that can be used to support one’s organization’s strategy.
As a Financial Management major, the stated competencies are all familiar and have been
taught to us gradually, either through different courses or lessons, it all holds a sense of
importance, and have widen my understanding for it. Hence, I believe some of which are
already something I have within myself that have grown more after years. The top three
competencies I believe to be strengths of mine are, relationship management, leadership and
navigation, and communication. In a way these three hold a strong similarity that I perceive to
be a strength of mine, which is personal communication/interaction. Since I have always been
an extroverted person, I always try to make new connections, and push for greater
opportunities, not only for me but those around me.
In terms of developing another and different competency, I would like to deepen my
understanding, and at the same time broaden my knowledge regarding business acumen and
critical evaluation. Since these two are what I perceive to be a greatly vital part in one’s
organization, learning to achieve both successfully and effectively, is not only a benefit for my
own skills, but to the organization as well.
