As we meander into the twenty first century, it is becoming increasingly evident that achieving success is based onthe ability to co-exist with ambiguity and re-inventing oneself quickly, in short, adapting to unparalleled change. Yet, most of the management and talent practices are based on an organisation model that now stands dated and static, resulting in organisations not being able to stay in step with the people who work in them. Therefore, companies that make sustained investments in talent are well positioned to outdo their competitors.
Today, the norms of valuation have changed radically as well. For listed companies, a key driver is the rise of the intangible value of the company. While valuation was previously based on equipment, facilities, technology, resources, today, most of it is based on brand, relationships, talent, and the ability to innovate and execute quickly. It has, therefore, rightly been observed that empires of the future, will be empires of the mind. But developing a talent culture is anything but easy. Some of the key questions that need to be asked, or shifts that need to be made include:
How do you move from seeing people as a cost to seeing people as fundamental assets?
How can you develop a culture that is challenging and demanding but respectful as well?
How can you nurture the competitive spirit and then ensure that your workforce collaborates?
How can a job be seen as a career? How can autonomy and mastery co-exist with process and alignment?
The corner stone of true competitiveness

Continuous Learning For Growth

Striking The Right Balance
In 2017, an employee in the HR Department of a leading global company received an excel sheet attachment in his official mail. While the content seemed harmless, it was in fact a well disguised Ransomware attack which had in fact placed several companies worldwide in the dock. Ransomware attacks targeting HR departments across the globe have since been in vogue since they possess valuable employee data which can be used to commit crimes such as tax frauds and the like.
The Multifaceted Advantages Of AI
AI can speed and automate data collection, make fundamental observations, systemize HR issues, and differentiate customer and employee profiles. But, corrective measures and final decisions can only be approved by people who can understand how to leverage AI tools to acquire accurate information sans the noise and interpret them the right way.
Engagement Surveys: A Means Or An End?
Surveys are not merely a way to check the pulse of the organisation; they should ideally be used as vehicles to improve the organisation culture, people practices and employee experiences which gradually translate into business success.
What Is And What Needs!

A Matter Of Strategic Timing!

It is a common phenomenon in the corporate landscape to misinterpret the inability to respond to a query by a Manager as a serious lapse which at times leads to termination of his/her services.
