Human Forces
The Source of Human Resources

Human Forces matches principals and candidates with the aim of filling HRM vacancies. We begin by looking for the right candidate based on the job and candidate profile drawn up with the principal. This is done through file search, executive search or media search. We use this approach for both generalist and specialist functions, both nationally and internationally and at various levels, for example:

• Director of Human Resource Management
• Manager HRM Department
• European Human Resource Director
• Compensation & Benefits Specialist
• International Compensation Manager
• Human Resource Manager · Human Resource Consultant
• Management Development Manager
• Personnel & Recruitment Administrator
• Recruitment Specialist
• Office Manager HR
• HR Controller

HRM Coaching & Development Human Forces supports HR Professionals in making career choices and can act as a discussion partner for all those professionals who would like to develop their skills further. They can help to answer questions such as "Am I an Advisor, Manager, Generalist or Specialist?; Should I become self-employed now or not?; How is my career looking in the short and long term?; Can I become a genuine sparring partner for line managers?".
In purely practical terms, the support we provide involves one of the following options:

• Career scan; this is designed to show you in one or two discussions whether your career is still on track.
• Career study; to produce answers to questions about your longer term career plans.
• Coaching on the job; designed to develop behavioural skills based on specific work situations, followed by a training or instruction course if required.
• Career coaching; if you need a sparring partner to discuss topical themes that affect you or your organisation.

Human Forces organises a number of training courses aimed at developing the skills and knowledge required for HRM.

HRM Support Training
This four-day training course allows staff who are providing a support role in an HRM department to make a practical and efficient contribution to the department's activities based on specifically targeted background knowledge. Training is also given in communication skills so that you can respond adequately in specific situations.

HRM Skills Training.
This training course covers the main behavioural skills required for the optimal functioning of the Human Resource Manager. The structure of the training course is modular, so that you can register only for those aspects which interest you.

In-company training.
As well as an open registration option, Human Forces also offers in-company training courses.
