- HR Director must be a good listener and understand the opinion of the department Upon learning of their aspirations they need to clearly communicate goals, mission, strategies leadership of the company to them Sometimes, there are regulations promulgated from the top down Staff felt forced However, if HR managers know how, all these difficulties would be cleared For example, the regulation of hours of work in the enterprise Some people feel uncomfortable when notice would penalize those who are late HR Director should explain to them: The regulations that impact how the business of the company Why do they have to comply with When understood and smoothly, the staff will be happy to make regulations
