In this age, HR innovation can be the vital source of competitive advantage; when hiring, nurturing and retaining talent is getting competitive. And, HR is an important stakeholder in the business performance.

“The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another.”

- William James

In every board discussion, of late, two aspects come under minute scrutiny - the Organisation’s Culture and Performance of the business. Leaner and meaner boutiques nibbling away key specialised and high-margin projects pose a new threat, while retaining high potential talent adds a new dimension to the issue. What’s more, transformation of HR from a Support Function to a Business Partner has meant that the CEO has high hopes from the HR function.

In such a context, HR Innovation holds the key. It’s about anticipating future needs and changing circumstances rather than a response-based approach to handling of present situations. It is the new age mantra of building culture on the pillars of talent and technology.

HR Innovation encompasses all the activities, practices, and programs that align individual objective to the organisational goals and objectives. Implementation of innovative ideas, methodologies, and technologies to better meet the ever-evolving requirements of the organisation and its people to stay relevant and competitive in future.
