HR Leadership now requires an astute understanding of three spheres:
organization's core business drivers, the leadership talent needed to
deliver business results, and the technology platforms that empower your
organization.
Technology platforms of tomorrow will look vastly different than the
administrative systems that HR is familiar with today at all levels: from
the employee or personal level, to the systems level and at the executive
analytics level.
Tomorrow's HR leaders must prepare themselves in unprecedented ways.
In this webinar the Lead speaker Mr. Aadesh Goyal, Chairman & CEO at
PeopleStrong HR Services and Mr. Krish Shankar, Director HR at Bharti Airtel
Ltd. shared the latest insights on Transforming HR Through Technology.
Participants learnt actionable insights into how you can leverage next
generation technologies, from social networking to information systems to
employee engagement tools, and achieve a new level of HR impact and
leadership.
