4 DECEMBER2024Editor's NoteHR Leaders Building Resilient & Engaged Workforces"Train people well enough so they can leave. Treat them well enough so they don't have to."This prudent advice was given by Sir Richard Branson, the Founder of the Virgin Group. Branson's keen understanding of human capital encapsulates the essence of the HR function; skilling & upskilling the workforce and building employee-first policies where people do not feel the need to leave. The HR leader's role in today's business scenario is no simple feat. HR leaders have their hands full with a plethora of critical responsibilities, right from recruiting, training, upskilling, work policy and setting the general work environment. What was once considered an administrative function has today transcended into a key business function. CEOs and other key leaders have realised that the key to success is building an employee-first organization. Having employees at the centre of decisions aids in creating a workforce that is motivated, efficient and positively impacts business. Innovation using tech is another crucial ingredient of building an engaged workforce. These mighty tasks are assigned to HR leaders. Leveraging their experience, understanding and expertise, they can devise strategies and policies that can help companies succeed in today's high-competition business landscape.
