Women in Human Resources (HR) management have been urged to harness the power of Humility, Empathy, and Resolve (HER) to redefine the profession within organisations. HER is a contemporary concept in HR practice in Ghana designed to elevate and advance the profession through key principles. An HR Consultant, Dr Hazel Berrard Amuah, who gave the advice also asked them to "leverage the power of HER to improve inclusivity, diversity, and equity."
He was speaking at the 10th Women in HR conference held in Accra, yesterday on the theme: 'The Power of HER: Redefining HR Leadership,' attended by HR practitioners from various organisations across the country. According to Dr Amuah, for women in HR to truly harness the power of HER, it was important for them to recognise and overcome barriers such as biases and stereotypes. She noted that harnessing the power of HER was a call to action that required women in HR to acknowledge the unique strengths and perspectives they brought to the field.
