The two-day forum will inspire new-age business and HR leaders to navigate the unpredictable domain of modern talent management paradigms. Themed ‘Gear-up for Talent 5.0’, the summit aims to put the spotlight on what’s next for employers in the human capital management realm and how they must prepare to navigate the next era of talent administration. Through the support of 15+ partners, including Presenting Partner – Unstop, the summit will provide immense networking and knowledge-acquisition opportunities to all attendees and delegates. An exclusive keynote address will be given by Arjuna Award Winner Prakash Padukone.

“With the pandemic behind us and having adapted to the new normal, it’s time for organisations to focus on being future ready, as work, workspace, and workforce are changing. The organisations that are agile and have adopted technology will not only have the competitive advantage to delight the customer but will also be able to create a positive employer brand to attract, retain, and engage talent,” said Dr. C. Jayakumar, EVP & Head – Corporate HR (CHRO), Larsen & Toubro.

Highlighting the significance of a digital talent management ecosystem, Amit Kumar Gupta, Business Head, ET Business Verticals, said, “Effective talent management is not just about retaining in-house talent. It is an expansive function that talks about performance and experience management, career development, building talent pipelines, meaningful engagement, talent mapping, skills analysis, and lastly – getting the right people onboard.”

Join us on May 4 and 5 to explore the nuances of the transformed talent management paradigms of Industry 4.0.
