11th World HR Congress 2006 organised by SHRI |
In the vortex
of a globalised economy and changing employment landscape, a
strong and capable HR community will be the catalyst and change
agents to make an impact to the ever-changing corporate world.
With sweeping policy changes, today’s HR practitioners need to
be advocators of HR policies, driving impactful HR strategies
and helping to make the difference in the lives of their
employees.
In
an effort to uplift HR to a higher ground, SHRI organised the 11th
World HR Congress in 2006, an event that sets record high of more than
2000 delegates comprised of HR professionals, practitioners,
business leaders and managers from more than 60 countries. The
exposition also showcased more than 90 companies from the Human Capital
industry. Following the success of this event, SHRI continues to provide
the HR fraternity an arena of knowledge-sharing through The Singapore HR
Congress & Business-Connect Exposition events 2007, 2008 and 2009.
Globalisation has
lent an impact on the world’s economy. As we plug ourselves in the
global grid, it is a challenge to stay competitive and relevant in the
global workforce. How can one remain competitive in the setting of the
robust economy? Building up capabilities and resiliency is important.
The HR community needs to prepare and equip the workforce and companies
with impactful and effective strategies to weather the economic
turbulence.
The Singapore HR Congress and Business-Connect Exposition 2010
will address the
newly derived term of HR TransmutationTM and explore the topic in deeper
context.
The current economic
churning has made it explicitly clear that industry is not just facing
another downturn but it is accompanied by impactful structural,
demographic and mindset changes across industry and top management
cannot afford to respond with anything less than a complete overhaul of
the system to survive and sustain.
Renowned speakers
and leaders from the HR fraternity will share their experiences and
provide useful insights on the know-how of managing paradoxes in a
turbulent world. |
