FRIDAY - CLOSING SPEAKER HUMAN CAPITAL IN THE NEW ECONOMY In an era where the demand for leadership greatly exceeds the supply, business people at all levels must be realistic. Leaders must embrace anew management intensity and develop solutions to break the downward spiral. HR must reposition itself as the go-to strategic partner, with the ability to positively influence the bottom-line. The new era of HR requires a shift in re-thinking and a re-aligning with the business objectives. Today, professionals must evolve quickly for performance and sustainability, or face obsolescence.
