HR BY GOOD QUALITY EDUCATION 1

 For the illiterates and half literates,  education is a scam. To go into a profession without requisite educational qualification is like learning to be Left-handed when already grown up. 


In dealing with this Content, I just wish to formerly introduce myself so as to enable people who are seeing me from afar,  come to terms with the stands I take in HR issues. 


I hold a B.Sc. (Hons) degree in Sociology and Anthropology from the University of Benin,  the best institution in that field in Nigeria then. 

Also,  I hold an M.Sc. degree in Industrial Relations and Personnel Management from the University of Lagos,  the best University in that field then in Nigeria. 


Consequently,  for me,  there are only three Universities in Nigeria. They are,  Uniben,  Unilag and Others. 

My two degrees are all about people and HR is also about people. No wonder I am who I am in this HR field. 


From Unilag,  I started by being a member of NIRA - Nigerian Industrial Relations Association. Later I became a member of the CIPMN - Chartered Instituted of Personnel Management of Nigeria, NITAD - Nigerian Institute For Training and Development,  and most recently in 2017 NICArb. - Nigerian Institute of Chartered Arbitrators. 


What this good quality education has done for me in this profession will form the Contents I shall share in the next several weeks without forgetting what King Solomon said in Ecclesiastes 1:18 (For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow).

HR MISTAKES BY YOURS TRULY 8

 I have a first degree in Sociology and Anthropology from the best university then in that discipline in Nigeria, the University of Benin, Benin City. During my undergraduate days, I decided not to earn naira on graduation, so when my course mates were rushing to major in Organizational Behaviour, I opted for Medical Sociology. I equally decided to go on to obtain a Masters Degree in Epidemiology so as to ensure that I work with either WHO or UNICEF where I would be paid in dollars. However, my university of choice was then being shut every other three months. This was against another decision of yours truly that I shall not spend more than 12 months for the masters program. At this point, I changed my mind to study Industrial Relations and Personnel Management at the best University then in that discipline in Nigeria, the University of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos. This major shift brought yours truly into a profession that it's major tenants contradict my major attitudes to life. Some of ...

HR MISTAKES BY YOURS TRULY 6

 My refusal to accept two direct instructions from two gentlemen who were instrumental to my employment in two companies where I enjoyed working, cost yours truly those jobs because I considered those instructions as unreasonable. Firstly, I was asked to provide information that would lead to the termination of the employment of five high performing managers. My response was to send my boss a local ICBM to the effect that "a man who circumcises woman do not talk". If the man talks, he will die of hunger. Secondly, I was asked to tell half truths by my boss, which I considered to be telling lies and I refused. My boss explained further to yours truly, that what he was saying was for yours truly to play politics because politics is about half truths. He stated further that should yours truly continue to insist on the truth only, he would join others in fighting yours truly. My response to him was "you're welcome. Within five weeks of this discussion, your truly was tra...

 As a result of what happened recently I have decided to reopen an issue I have addressed in another way entitled " Human Resources Mistakes By Yours Truly". This time around, I' address as it as Human Resources FADS. All professions have their own share of hardcore professionals, charlatans, accident members and strangers.

Today, I hereby start a long haul serries just as I did with " Employee Stealing and Human Resources Mistakes. by Yours Truly". I shall discuss only two per post because of  the difficulty of reading by the Gen X downward of reading long  Contents. Hereunder are some of the FADS, I shall discuss. They are:- - Manpower Planning. - Succession Planning. - Employee Relations. - Industrial Relations. - Loud silence. - Coucelliing  - Nepotism called sponsorship. - Remote working. - Computer a...
