• According to the experience of Huawei, HR work shall not be regarded as a professional work. Its core issue shall center around cadre and the overall business.
•  
• The importance of HR does not only represent in selecting and management carder, but also in endowing capacities to the whole organization. For most companies, human labor training and development focus on individuals, which leads to the result that the capacity could be established on the organization.
•

• HR work calls for the dynamic adjustment. When it learns the HR methodologies, it should also consider factors of strategic focus, operation status and HR management level.
• HR management is by no means the affair of a single department and it should give emphasis on fostering the management level of cadres (especially the first level cadres). Just like the major work of finance department is to help business departments to improve profits, reduce costs and transfer digital language into business language, HR management should also become a capable assistant to the business.
• The focus of Huawei University shall be laid in aspects of customer technology training and customer management communication and training. Meanwhile, it’s better for the training to adopt stratified methods. For example, for the high level management, the focus is to expand horizons, which indicates that we could invite external experts to deliver classes; for the mid-level experts, it’s better to adopt the method of superior level train the inferior level, with the superior level compiling textbooks and deliver classes independently and sharing experiences based on the actual experience. It shall never make the college training without combining with the business.
