DigiHR 2018 - NIPM Coimbatore Chapter

Southern Regional Conference, DigiHR 2018 Positioning HR in the Digital World.

What's About the Event

HR is undergoing rapid and profound change led by digitization. Once delivered employee services, HR is now helping organizations to lead the digital transformation. Having realized the importance of staying in tandem with the changing times, promoting adoption of a tech-enabled approach, it has taken a leaf out of the digital-savvy departments’ book and re-designed the company’s digital mindset and strategies completely.

Digital HR does not simply mean digitizing the existing HR platforms. Quite the contrary actually, it goes much beyond that to develop and implement technology to meet the organization’s specific needs in scaling up productivity, lending more power & experience to employees, and getting them future ready. Digital HR is built on innovation and experi­mentation.

Digital man­agement practices and agile organization design be­come central to business thinking, HR is changing again, focusing on people, work, and platforms resulting set of HR practices “Digital HR.”

Research findings predict that while all these years, technology and HR have been connected as a way to ease out the day-to-day functioning of the organization, in 2018 technology will surely become a way of life in the workplace. It is bound to dictate most steps in the HR process right from hiring people to engaging them to even replacing them and then finding solutions.

A new breed of HR products and solu­tions is coming to market, many built around mobile apps, AI, and consumer-like experiences. These tools are enabling HR to become near-real time. Employees are now proactively taking more initiatives and aiding them in their quest for knowledge by a wide range of new technologies for content curation, delivery, video distribution, and mobile use.

In fact, automation of the vital HR functions has only meant that HR professionals will now have more time on hand to develop other key strategies that can help move the needle in the right direction.

However, the fact remains that technology in the form of Artificial Intelligence is taking away the jobs. This phenomenon is not limited to a specific sector and every sector is equally susceptible.

In this context, NIPM Coimbatore Chapter endeavors to bring a power-packed HR Technology conference for HR Practitioners to understand the depth of leveraging technology productively benefitting HR on 18th and 19th May 2018 at Coimbatore.
