7 CALENDAR OF ACTIVITIES NHRDN NATIONAL HR SHARED SERVICES SUMMIT In this emerging era of globalization and new business models, visionary CXOs & Business/ Functional Heads of corporations are focused on Business Process Management (BPM) to align business processes of an organization with the needs and requirements of customers - internal and external. Over the last decade, India has become the global hub for off shoring of IT and IT Enabled Services More and more forward looking Indian organizations are drawing upon global best practices, and have commenced exploiting Shared Services and Technology Enabled solutions as a part of their BPM strategy, for cost reduction as well as business transformation. Acknowledging these imperatives, NHRDN organizes its annual HR Shared Services Summit to discuss and deliberate on the importance of having a BPM strategy as it becomes increasingly important in redesigning business processes of an organization, thus enabling it to achieve overall cost effectiveness. NHRDN NATIONAL WOMEN LEADERSHIP SUMMIT Women bring diverse skills and talent to the workforce. Their impact goes beyond the bottom line to result in a vibrant, more culturally stable and sustainable organization. The presence of senior women leaders in an organization provides a competitive edge to the organization. There exist multiple barriers and impediments to women s journey to the top and to them continuing to be part of the workforce. Unfortunately, the concept of gender diversity and inclusion has often been seen as the flavor of the season with organizations adding it perfunctorily in their corporate dashboards, resulting in fewer numbers of women across leadership positions. Recognizing these challenges, NHRDN organizes its annual National Women Leadership Summit to discuss, deliberate and propagate the benefits of having a diverse workforce. NHRDN NATIONAL COMPENSATION & REWARDS SUMMIT Compensation represents the largest of all expenses in most organizations. With such high stakes on the table, there is an enormous demand for innovative business practices which requires more than traditional compensation packages and a closer look at pay-for-performance models for more effective bottom-line business results. Recognizing the importance of this domain, NHRDN organizes its annual Compensation & Rewards Summit which helps practitioners comprehend and analyze the components of compensation and benefits to employees, and to learn how leading companies are designing new strategies and implementing creative compensation programs which are driving immediate results for long-term sustainability in this complex environment.
