I am a firm believer that relationships are created in the canteen. In big corporations, the management team often is a faceless name (unfortunately). In my first 30 days as an HR Manager, I would get to know who I am working with. I would find time outside of my induction formalities and meetings to spend time "on the floor", seeing what the business is really about (e.g. operations)? What hardships are employees facing? What is the overall motivation and morale on different levels of the business? The HR is expected to be not only the revenue increasing/expense decreasing mechanism performing the tasks from the Job Description list, but also the link between the management and the employees of the company. Even in most of smaller companies "Human" has been removed from "Human Resources". I am sure the company without "Human" factor cannot function to its full potential.
