Cagayan de Oro City will host for the first time the People Management Association of the Philippines (PMAP) 48th annual conference on October 12-14, 2011 at the Atrium in Limketkai Center.
‘Tao muna, Tayo na!’ HR Mandate in the New World will address how the four forces of change are posing challenges to individuals, there implications on HR management and what appropriate interventions are needed to address the impact of the change both on individuals and organizations.
As our environment continually and dynamically evolved, we suddenly realize we are now completely operating in a new business landscape. There are four forces that brought about this change : the emerging Asian markets, rapid technological developments, shifting societal values and our natural environment. These forces are creating dynamic impact on people in their business and social environment. People and organizations can be reactive or proactive in this situation. However, it is people’s capabilities that will enable them to proactively respond to these forces of change and in the process create the competitive edge for their organizations. Thus, Tao muna.
In this case, it is our role and responsibility as HR professionals to take on the initiative and drive the change process by equipping people with the required capabilities. Given this, it is imperative that we resolve and commit to take on this challenge. Tayo na!
