History of HR


I was reviewing some literature (and reflecting on past experiences) on what a HR Department should.  When I first started doing training for various orgs the HR people were the fun loving people that made life in an org bearable (they displayed high levels of Org Citizenship Behaviours) but somebody told them they would never be taken seriously if all they did was encourage people and hand out T-Shirts/coffee cups/ etc and so they became 'more professional.'

Obviously there are still fun loving good hearted HR people, but more and more it seems to be a collection of Catberts (gotta love Scottt Adams). Enjoy!
