Allowing user to edit their profile
It's possible, to an extent, via Role Assignment policies: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/permissions-exo/role-assignment-policies
It depends on the underlying directory as well, so thing will differ in Exchange vs Exchange Online. And some properties, such as Title, are not editable by end users (everyone will be a CEO otherwise).

Yes, that is where I tried. The user is assigned with the "Default Role Assignment Policy". And the role by default comes with profile updating right. But OWA still indicates no such permission to update profile.

Seems this is an expected behavior. Have you checked the below post ?
Either we should have an another way to provide permission or else Microsoft need to update Role assignment policy documentation .

Yes. I am aware that user is not allowed to change.
But is there a higher "roles" or partial "admin-rights" that can be assigned such profile updating access to a manager/HR to handle all the staff profile instead? Since HR of the company handle such affairs.
And in the mean time, not releasing the complete admin rights to the HR.
Thanks.
