Leadership by HR is the key to be addressed  and to overcome various problems, issues pertaining to sustain and drive the Business.  During the past four weeks, Business and Economy are severely & extremely hit globally without any exception to India. The effects and after effects of the epidemic unknown to the world has hit and continue to be so until reducing and eliminating the disease.
BUSINESS TODAY; AN INJURED WARRIOR IN A BATTLE FIELD.
Business needs multiple supports, extensive committed & dedicated workforce, team work, nourishment & care, draw out appropriate strategies, meticulous planning & designing, and most important being “forecast” -  any threats and losing any opportunities.

Here, where the HR must integrate itself in the Business, and play a pivotal role. HR must be assertive in terms of positive movement of Business. Treat the Warrior in all respects so that the warrior is back in the battle. Any withdrawal by HR tantamount to running away from the battle field.
Let us discuss “Leadership by HR” in Business.   HR as a bridge between Employees & Business

List of issues – post lockdown.
  1. Huge finished products inventory – undisposed or accumulated.
  2. Work-in-progress – in terms of quantity & value.
  3. Disruption of supply chain.
  4. Uncertainty in resumption of supply chain.
  5. Customers being in the same position thereby leading to problems in lifting the finished products- either delay or postponement.
  6. Debtors & creditors – problems related.
  7. Working capital.
  8. Any chances of customers either cancelling / postponing the pending orders.
  9. Payment of salary to all direct / indirect employees with contributions to social security & Insurances.

  7. Any relation of production planning versus the accumulated stocks either in the Factory or in godowns / ware houses / show rooms etc ? To be examined.

  3. Frame issues for each team / teams.
  4. Brain storming sessions – to arrive at conscious recommendations.

  7. Close liaison with the Trade Union and their involvement & participation
  8. Aggressive involvement of HR in all the above & taking leadership is the order of the Day.
