Marching to the New World of Work

Introduction

2018 may be a watershed moment with many emerging HR trends converging. Technology and globalisation are significantly

shifting business models in all sectors. With countless reports citing that a third of the skill sets required to perform today’s jobs

will be wholly new by 2020, how should local and global organisations react to create a future-ready workforce? It is no surprise

that outdated organisational norms and institutional inertia still prevail in the market. Therefore, the goal of Talent Management

Asia 2018 has been to bring together HR leaders to develop a common vision for the upcoming issues confronting the

workplace. The next wave is coming – will it be a period of consolidation, innovation or both? Let’s unlock the secret together.

Purpose of Talent Management Asia

In this two-day event, Talent Management Asia aims to:

– Recognise the next-generation HR strategies by local and global companies that act as role models or pioneers to other HR

counterparts through thought-leadership and case study presentations.

– Provide a platform for HR decision-makers from local large enterprises to multinational companies to learn from each other

throughout the two-day interactive networking conference.

– Introduce HR leaders and senior HR specialists to established solution providers who will facilitate their future talent

management programmes.
