Competency of Human Resource Manager refers to level of
knowledge and skills inHRM, as self rated by the human resource manager
in the particular firm. Workingdefinition of competency of human resource
manager was: ‘self assessment onknowledge of human resource
management, the ability to add value to the business andthe ability to

commented that the demonstration ofexpertise by HR managers resulted in a
significant uplift of HR stature and also tightenedthe HR management and
strategy linkage. Competencies of HR managers are significantfor
participating of the HR function in senior executive decision-making (Zhu et
al,2005). According to Khatri (1999) choosing the right HR managers is
important to thestrategic management of the HR function. If HR
professionals do not have the right HRMknowledge and skills, and are not
able to think strategically, the HR function would berelegated to a
supportive/secondary role. There is a widespread consensus that
HRprofessionals need to know their organization’s business thoroughly-not

environmental, and technologicalforces affecting it. Rather than playing a
staff role, they should become internalconsultants known for their expertise

executives are not invited to the strategic planning table is that they
areunable to display the required competencies. Hence following hypothesis
