| HR Specialist roles have substantially changed in the past. This is owing to changing technology, remote working approaches, COVID-19 implication and transition from Administration to Strategic Partnership. There however lack a one-size-fit all people practice solutions as HR specialists roles are informed by industrial and workplace changes. Technologies have similarly altered the manner people practice professionals execute their functions (CIPD, 2023). Majority of these roles are resourcing, payroll, compensation and L&D and automation by use of technologies. In my organisation, Artificial Intelligence is important for my organisation for tracking the employees data and using it in recruitment.
Past COVID-19, relevance of technology in workplace has increased (CIPD, 2023). For instance, organisations are increasingly implementing hybrid working roles for flexible working improvement, attraction and retention. Further, there has been a transition of the people professionals roles shifting from administration and strategic focus (CIPD, 2023a). Implications on CPD CPD is identified as a concept evidencing people professionals recording, maintaining, documenting and evolving knowledge, skills and experiences (CIPS, 2023a). This is an integration of formal and informal practices and holistic practices for maintaining entire updates. The changing function of HR has initiated new interests to be tech savvy, necessity for acquiring specialised skills, collaboration in working, communication and self-management process. It is important maintaining updates for the changing role of people professionals through an active L&D and to maintain an appropriate CPD Plan for maintaining competitiveness. Also, growth in technologies lower time factors, distances and financial challenges in learning. For instance, working in my organisation, the changes have led to the embrace of LMS which is offered freely and from any location. For the first example which include post-pandemic world, I ensure that my active practice is aligned substantially with new change in world of work. In particular, this is in the areas of health and safety areas, staff engagement and communication. I would alter my CPD to include a short-term based course on managing occurring emergencies in my current organisation. This is at the same time sourcing fresh insights on best practice in improving organisation active collaboration and team-based working in the different challenges. For the application of technologies into becoming tech savvy, I feel best positioned to adopt skills by leveraging on different technologies in my operation. In my CPD, this would be altered to include Excel and SPSS tools for improving analysis in different roles allocated in my research. I have been in a position of managing this process by participating actively in short-term courses in using technologies. |
