Hi all,
As a HR team of one for a relatively small charity (up to 50 perm staff with workers) and in a leadership role, I am wondering how other lone snr HR managers balance operational duties with strategic goals.
What tools do you use for productivity and Wellbeing while ensuring that you still maintain complete oversight of everything from policies to maintaining relationships with employees and being visible?
This is a very typical dilemma for an HR leader "in one person". Many find a balance thanks to clear prioritization: they allocate separate time for operational tasks and separately for strategic planning, so that one does not eat the other. Simple tools for task tracking, regular check-ins with management and a conscious focus on your own well-being help, because without it it is easy to burn out. By the way, well-designed employee benefits can support not only the team, but also the HR manager himself: betterme.world/.../.
