Empowering women in India Inc
It’s still early days for women in corporate corridors. Although women’s social and economic empowerment has many exponents and avid supporters, the neglect of women in the corporate world agitates few minds.

Using change agents to globalise India Inc

High-performance businesses have reinvented corporate training to cope with the rapid pace of organisational change. These dynamic organisations have learned to compete in a turbulent and competitive environment by deliberately altering business practices on a continuing basis.

That boost to SMEs is still missing

The importance and contribution of the SME sector to growth and prosperity are well established. Their role in terms of employment creation, upholding the entrepreneurial spirit and innovation has been crucial in fostering competitiveness in the economy.

Temp zone talent is HR’s new focus

India's burgeoning IT-BPO industry has generated scope for employing more part-timers like housewives and students who can add to the talent pool of the skilled work force.

In hospitality, it’s a different story

Marriott International Inc, a leading lodging company with approximately 151,000 employees worldwide, has been ranked as one of the best companies to work for by Fortune magazine.

Where love has gone...

Workplace romance is on a long rope as India Inc’s HR managers choose to look the other way as long as smitten couples do what they were hired for.

A career break is no full stop

To recharge cells and devote more time to family, a career break sounds wonderful for a woman but a return to the job market after a hiatus may not be a shoo-in.

‘India’s workforce quality is superior’

Dieter Scheiff, CEO, Adecco Group holds that the Indian staffing market would acquire greater importance in times to come. This will occur with the country’s young demographic profile and its superior quality workforce.

The reskilling route to retention

JSW, a part of the Rs 32,000 crore OP Jindal Group of Companies is a dynamic, integrated entity with core competency in steel and power.

Leadership: investment in human capital

In a world where intellect is the new form of property, tomorrow’s leaders will be those who invest in human capital, now and today. The enthusiasm one encounters in the industry is, indeed, infectious. Business leaders that I meet are strategising to multiply manifold.

Measuring work performance

It may be tempting to believe that if you have hired the right people and trained them to do their jobs, you do not have to spend time or energy measuring their performance. The truth, however, is that you have just about laid the foundation.

E-recruitment is the name of the game

Riding on the back of a war for talent, online recruitment is steadily gaining a bigger share of the recruitment pie. While IT and ITeS companies have been their traditional clients, companies from diverse sectors such as auto components and pharma today are relying on online recruitment to fill up their vacancies.

Managing cultural integration

Businesses today are being hit by waves of globalisation, liberalisation and technology, resulting in a constant churn, competition and change.

Dealing with greying workers

With the average Indian now just 24 years old, and with over half the population under 25, industrialists and policymakers talk about India’s demographic dividend. But along with this rosy picture, is another reality—older workers and their concerns that tend to get swept under the carpet.

Have you lied in your CV, Mr Kumar?

Police verification, blood tests and financial background checks. It isn’t easy getting a job with the IT-ITeS industry these days.
