Du interessierst dich für HR Consulting. Wie können Sie Ihre Fähigkeiten weiterentwickeln?

Start by understanding the essential skills needed in HR consulting. These can range from technical skills like knowledge of HR laws and regulations, data analysis, and HR systems, to soft skills like communication, empathy, negotiation, and strategic thinking. Reflect on your current skill set in relation to those identified as key to HR consulting. Consider your experiences, feedback you've received, and any formal assessments you've undertaken. Tools like SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) can be particularly useful in this stage.

É importante entender, antes de tudo, que a consultoria de RH é um serviço que mexe com o "organismo" de uma empresa. Portanto, deve ser um profissional que tenha conhecimento e experiência (de fato) tanto em gestão de pessoas quanto com RH. Deve ter uma visão estratégica, unindo resultados com boas práticas, além de entender sobre o impacto de cada subsistema de RH sobre a empresa. Para se tornar um consultor de RH, o profissional deve ter esse conhecimento e se aprimorar em gestão de negócios, estratégias e pesquisar sempre ferramentas que permitam a inovação.

Learning from various sources and media is essential in building knowledge in human resource consulting. Knowledge from books and evidence-based findings should be combined with practical experience shared by notable professionals in the online communities. Learning should be treated as a continuous process when building a human resource consulting career.

So many people could advance their skillset if they just become vulnerable to collaborate. That's one thing I must say that I have learned from the younger workforce. Collabs are cool - and not just in music. I mean if Pitbull and Dolly Parton can do it, you can too! LOL Being vulnerable enough to network and tap into some diversity of skillset. Do your research on LinkedIn and connect with folks who are in the titles/roles you strive to be, or the line of business you're attempting to build upon. Reach out to people who are thriving in areas where you liked to grow. The amount of new skills and insights you can gain from those who welcome new partnerships, mentees, or collabs as the cool kids say, are priceless!

From recent experience; immerse yourself in the vast array of books, articles, and publications written by experts in the field. This habit will not only broaden your knowledge but also keep you informed about the latest research and trends in HR management.

Life took an unexpected turn almost 10 months ago when I faced a layoff. Despite applying for countless roles, I received no positive responses. The disappointment is heart-wrenching. Here’s where resilience and creativity come into play. With over two decades of experience under my belt, I asked myself: “Why not create my own path?” Driven by this vision, I am currently in a bootcamp to earn my SPHR certification. Following that, I’m diving into a certification course for my Green Belt in Six Sigma. And finally, I’m setting my sights on achieving my PMP certification. These steps ensure that my skillset remains relevant and adaptable in today’s dynamic landscape. Remember, it’s never too late to invest in self-improvement. 🌟🚀

Remember that getting certified is not a one-time achievement. Most certifications require continuing education credits to maintain the credential, encouraging ongoing learning and professional development.

Engage in cross-functional projects that involve HR elements. Working closely with other departments (e.g., finance, operations) can enhance your understanding of HR's impact on the broader business context which is very important.

Join professional HR organizations and online communities. These platforms are excellent for networking, sharing knowledge, and staying informed about industry changes and innovations.

É importante entender que cada empresa tem particularidades e anseios, táticos e estratégicos. Não adianta "tirar da gaveta" um projeto e entender que funcionará igual para todas. É necessário ter uma análise de cenário e viabilidade (financeira e operacional) para implantação de cada passo. É importante também alinhar, antes de tudo, com a alta administração, o "topo da pirâmide", para que a "base" esteja estimulada a aderir. Não se coloque como detentor da verdade e do conhecimento, mas como facilitador e apoiador na construção.

In today's globalized workforce, understanding different cultural norms and legal requirements across regions can be a significant asset. Consider gaining knowledge or experience in international HR practices.
