Leadership Reflection

This paper provides you with the opportunity to critically reflect on your role (present or anticipated) as a HR practitioner/leader (remember, in this course, we are defining HR broadly, to include HRM, HRD, OD and Career Development roles). The text readings and your personal work experiences serve as the foundation for your reflection. The kinds of questions to consider are: Where do you see yourself in the future? I see myself managing the HR department. What are your interests? My interests are reading, writing, and learning about new cultures and traditions, spending time with family and friends. Where do you think your competencies lie? My competent in interpersonal skills, decision-making, strategic planning. Do you see yourself as a specialist or a generalist? I see myself specializing in training and development.What types of experience might you pursue to gain additional information on yourself or your interests? Social networking, reading new books on HR management and taking personality tests to figure out my strengths and weaknesses. What assumptions frame your practice and what does it mean to you to be a HR practitioner? as an HR practioner one needs to be a strategic planner, think like the leaders to earn a seat at the table, bring value to the company by focusing on the real business, not HR business. Although this is a reflection and not a research paper, your reflections should be grounded in the course materials. Therefore, you must base your reflections on course information, and cite those sources that have informed your reflection. 
Use 2 scholarly articles and cite Discover your true north by Bill George, HR from the Outside in by Ulrich. These two books are the text reading in class. Thank you and feel free to ask me any questions regarding this assignment. I appreciate your hard work. I’ll also attach my mission statement.
