Assignment #8...



Our group planned to interview the HR manager of our adopted company, which is PAG-IBIG, but an interview means another letter and several days to wait for approval… (Sigh). So when Mr. Gamboa said, that the interface of our HRIS proposal should be countersigned by PAG-IBIG, our chance came. We telephoned Ms. Laarni Lobo and asked if we can go to their office for them to approve the interface proposal. She said that she’s so busy and she can entertain us probably after 2 weeks, but because of our convincing powers, she said the magic word “OK”.

After the telephone conversation, we immediately went to PAG-IBIG. We presented the interface of our HRIS proposal and explained the flow of the proposal. She consulted their programmers and luckily, they approved. She countersigned it and it’s done. But before we left, we asked her about the assignment and what’s her concept about it. At first, she can’t find any answer to that query because she’s not prepared. But because of my eagerness to have an answer from her, I rephrased the question. I asked her opinion about human resource management and there, we got something from her.

Ms. Lobo said that human resource is a vital element of any organization; human resource department is the heart of the company. According to her, to be an HR manager is not that easy, she has to deal with more than 100 different souls. Her role and the role of the human resource department is to bring out the best of their employees and professionalism should be seen from all of their employees, for them to serve and offer the quality service that their clients need.

I agree with what Ms. Lobo answered and her concept as an HR manager is similar to the management of her company. It is definitely true that human resource is really the heart of the company. An organization can’t stand long if not because of the people behind it. It is really a vital factor of any organization, because it depends to them the downfall and the success of their organization.
