So don't do an HR audit if you think anything less than an A+ is failure. We don't assign grades, but an absence of suggestions leave no opportunity for growth. I suppose you might want an A+ for the purposes of a certification, but that's not what I explored this week with Elissa Lok.
Elissa has one of the most diverse skillsets of any HR person I know. She is an HR Consultant with HR Wests, a facilitator of Spacemakers and a trainer. She also does audits. She says:
🤭 Don't be embarassed! We all have our own journeys including our HR functions... It's an opportunity to learn and get a sense of priorities.
🤷🏻♀️ You won't make decision in an HR audit. It's really just a summary of risks, opportunities and strengths.
🛞 You can structure it following the employee lifecycle. From recruitment to departures.
≠ A large sophisticated business will not get the same audit as a small business. We are all trying to improve, but obviously starting in different places.
