Make It Happen - HR Directors

Sometimes, you just have to Make It Happen. Sitting around wondering if business is going to "Dry Up" accomplishes nothing. Quick Lubes and other Auto Care facilities have plenty of opportunities to go into the public and get business.

How many Human Resource Directors of local companies do you know? Human Resource Directors are usually responsible for:

• recruiting and staffing
• organizational and space planning
• performance management and improvement systems
• organization development
• employment and compliance to regulatory concerns
• employee orientation, development, and training
• policy development and documentation
• employee relations
• company-wide committee facilitation
• company employee and community communication
• compensation and benefits administration
• employee safety, welfare, wellness and health
• charitable giving
• employee services and counseling

(Note: Depending on the organization, the Human Resources Director often directs administration, including reception, and may even be responsible for facility security and upkeep in addition to space planning.)

Compile a list, get to know these people, stay in contact with them. HR Directors want to keep the employees happy, plain and simple. As a Quick Lube or Auto Care facility owner, what can you bring to the HR Directors table that will be "value added"? Get involved, contact the Medical Centers, Hotels, Apartment Complexes and all Corporations. Make It Happen!
