ABOUT NHRDN LEARNING CENTRE

OVERVIEW OF ANNUAL EVENTS

NHRDN NATIONAL CSR SUMMIT

It is crucial for organizations now only to make higher earnings but

also to ensure that their business is built on strong ethical practices

and is not harmful to the environment in which they operate.

Companies nowadays are also being increasingly pressurized to

enhance the stratum of their social responsibilities. If implemented

appropriately, CSR measures can also be great contributors in defining the success of

organizations and lead to win – win situations. Keeping these imperatives in mind, NHRDN has

taken an initiative to create awareness among organizations about their responsibility

towards the business & environment by introducing its National CSR Summit. This Summit

would assist organizations in identifying several social, environmental & financial measures

that can positively affect the greater business environment, specifically comprising of People,

Planet & Profit and also be a valuable contributor in overall success at the same time.

NHRDN NATIONAL IR SUMMIT

The Employee Relations (ER) climate in an organization is the

product of the socio-economic and political systems in which it

operates. However, the single biggest determinant of the ER

environment is the sum of management practices in the

organization. In today’s business landscape having an effective

employee relations culture is a must for any organization for business sustainability. At NHRDN,

we understand the importance and criticality of this subject and hence organize an annual IR

Summit which helps participants look within Industry and the corporate world for solutions – to

self-introspect on how to proactively build sustainable employee relations practices in a highly

competitive global environment.

NHRDN HRD LEADERS RETREAT

HRD Leaders are expected to demonstrate truly inspirational

leadership. While tough calls have to be made, they have to be

accompanied by complete transparency, integrity and

genuine compassion on one hand, and prepare for innovation

and new opportunities on the other. NHRDN HRD Leaders Retreat

is a National Platform to hone the skills of HR Leaders. Senior

Business Professionals personally groom the HR Leaders for two and a half days, in a Workshop

mode.

The role of HR in partnering with the business leaders to lead in this courageously authentic

way is crucial.Recognizing the importance of building the right Leadership skills in our

organizations, NHRDN organizes its annual ‘Learning Community’ of HR Leaders, to help them

prepare for the journey ahead.

NHRDN NATIONAL LEARNING & DEVELOPMENT SUMMIT

Change has always been a force to reckon with for the

Organizations in the past; however now, not only do we face the

dramatic technological revolutions, but also a significant change

in the pace of these changes, which is more rapid, more tangent

and has transformed the way organizations are doing business &

building intellectual capital. This external environment influencing organizations is also

characterized by increasing global competition, unpredictability, instability and ambiguity of

global markets. In this scenario, old didactic or learning approaches for developing

intellectual capital and senior leadership team are not likely to be effective and efficient. To

discuss how organizations are facing these realities and are coping with the changing

dynamics of the global markets using potential L&D initiatives, NHRDN organizes its annual

National L&D Summit, which features HR, L&D & Business professionals from across the country

deliberating on various contemporary topics in the L&D space.

NHRDN NATIONAL HRM SUMMIT

The demands of increasingly complex environment have

observably transformed the role of HR from being a support

function to a strategic business function. HR has become a key

both the employee and the organization. NHRDN in its constant endeavor in bring HR on the

challenges pertaining to the HR function and how organizations can leverage HR to gain a

strategic advantage over others. The annual HRM Summit is a sough after platform which

contemporary themes in the field of HR.

NHRDN PEOPLE CEO CONCLAVE

The role of HR has evolved over the years, and it has become a

more strategic function contributing to business in any forward

looking organization. Over the last two decades, it has

contributed significantly to the HR profession making it a

strategic discipline and CEO’s top priority. NHRDN has been

instrumental in front lining and on boarding HR as a key differentiator to all business activity. To

further align the HR Agenda with main business goals, NHRDN had introduced a new initiative

last year- its 1st CEOs Conclave. The Conclave brought together some of the celebrated

CEOs and seasoned HR professionals to deliberate on the choosen theme. It is now an annual

CALENDAR OF ACTIVITIES

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

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.
