HR Continuum 2011
HR Continuum is the first Continuum of calendar year 2011 and is scheduled as a one day event on 12th March, 2011. This year the series of lectures and panel discussion will be around the central theme:
“Gaining Competitive Advantage through Effective Human Resource Management”
Product differentiation, marketing strategy, core competency, etc. have traditionally been the means to gain competitive advantage for an organization. However, the efficient management of employees has started gaining grounds as organizations realize the value of this Human Capital. Employees come from different background, age group, qualifications etc. and Human Resource personnel works very hard in channelizing their efforts towards a common goal. Moreover, in the current business scenario Mergers and Acquisitions are very common. The employees of the two different organizations inherit different value systems and so the success of Merger or Acquisition largely depends on the motivating them keeping their value systems in mind. In fact many organizations outsource certain amount of their Human Resource Management work to third parties to take care to day to day activities, in order to focus more on other aspects like Employee engagement initiatives, Knowledge sharing sessions, Training sessions, Gem awards etc.
Some of the key discussion topics will include:
- Role of HR in building strong employment brand
- Creating a strategic Human Resource Management System
- Role of Human Resources management in Mergers and Acquisition
- Diversity Management
- HR outsourcing
- The innovation imperative: HR impact
Panel Discussion:
A panel discussion would also be conducted on a topic in consonance with the central theme. This discussion is aimed at sharing the views and gaining the insights from the eminent business leaders and academia on the topic:
“Strategies encouraging Internal Competition- Constructive or Destructive”
