-
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.”
The conclave saw three keynote addresses on Augmenting Human Capabilities in the Age of Artificial Intelligence and Balancing HR and Technology: Gearing up for the Future from Ms. Anita Pai, Chief Operating Officer, Yes Bank and Mr. Amit Malik, Chief People, Operations & Customer Services Officer, Aviva Life Insurance India Ltd. respectively, and an ending keynote by Mr. Subhankar Roy Chowdhury, CHRO, Lenovo all of them being a part of the illustrious SIBM alumnus. The conclave also had two panel discussions on Best people practices to create competitive business & Building an Agile organization through Agile HR with a multitude of industry professionals expressing their opinions and insights. 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. The panel comprised of illustrious alumni including Mr. Navneet Prasad, Executive Director – HR, KPMG; Mr. Ranjit Jose, Head HR, Diageo Business Services India and Mr. Binu John, General Manager – HR, Wipro Consumer Care and Lighting.

"Every blow on our bodies this afternoon is like a nail driven into the coffin of British imperialism." These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal

The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr
