Unified Global HRD: Breaking Boundaries

 

Connectivity – Choice – Competition – Competency Development

Technological advancement is rapidly reshaping our business environment and pushing globalization to its limits. The resulting connectivity between and among producers, service providers and consumers has led to greater choices for all.  This, in turn, heightens business competition, forcing companies to continuously sharpen their competitive edge through the development of their core competencies. Thus, the need for endless learning, unlearning and relearning experiences.

 

Fortunately, technological advancement has also contributed to improvements in the development and delivery of training services, which Training & Development (T & D) professionals may explore and take advantage of. The convention, as a whole, will explore emerging trends in the training and development profession in the light of the influences of globalization and how training and development professionals across the world may connect and network with each other.
