SYMBIOSIS INSTITUTE OF BUSINESS MANAGEMENT (SIBM) HOSTS THE 3RD EDITION OF HR CONCLAVE IN MUMBAI

Symbiosis Institute of Business Management (SIBM), the flagship business school of Symbiosis International (Deemed) University, hosted its 3rd edition of HR conclave in Mumbai. Started in 2017, the HR Conclave is an annual confluence that brings together coveted leaders from myriad fields to deliberate, discuss and disseminate knowledge that can further initiate a conversation on the ever-evolving infrastructure of human resources.

With its previous two editions celebrating a phenomenal response, this year’s edition of the HR Conclave hosted a plethora of senior leaders whose invaluable contributions have shaped the face of HR in the country.
Kickstarting this year’s conclave with the theme ‘Embracing Agile HR – Responding to Disruptive trends’, Dr. Ramakrishnan Raman, the director of Symbiosis International University said, “We’ve been hosting the HR Conclave for the past three years. First year it was in Pune, the second in Mumbai and this year once again, in Mumbai. This year we’re hosting the theme of Embracing Agile HR. The motive for this theme comes from an article published in Harvard Business Review in its May 2016 issue titled – ‘Embracing Agile’ which gives insights on how agility can benefit organizations. This article gives examples of several companies who have successfully embraced agility in every aspect of a business. Looking at this, we wanted to get views on how agility could bring a positive shift if it is applied to HR.”

Through discussions, the conclave focused on how the future value lies at the intersection of humans and intelligent machines, with great impetus laid out on the five T’s of human-machine collaboration – teams, tasks, talent, technology and trust.
The first panel discussion was moderated by Mr. Amit Chincholikar, Global CHRO , Tata Global Beverages.
