HR Services and Employee Management

The HR Services group of Human Resources is available to assist departments, managers, and faculty and staff in making the university community a satisfying, productive work environment. 

Each school or division is assigned an HR Manager who is dedicated to understanding their needs.  Individuals should contact their HR Manager as their first HR contact.  Departments can contact their HR Manager as their strategic partner in engaging in effective employee relations.

HR Services can help you:

  • Develop change management and organizational development strategies
  • Prepare an individual career plan
  • Encourage employee motivation, satisfaction, and productivity
  • Address challenges occurring in the department, including personal conflicts, ineffective workplace systems or resource constraints
  • Understand the technical systems, policies and procedures, and legal requirements that impact how you do business
  • Prepare strategic staffing plans and recruit the best talent.
HR Services can be your strategic partner in nurturing Carnegie Mellon's most important asset: its people!
