The Asia HRD congress 2013
The current economic uncertainty demands that organisations reinvent themselves and adopt new business paradigms in creating sustainable advantage. Globalisation and its need for stronger regional HR capabilities, coupled with the demographic shifts which have dramatically affected the availability of qualified people around the world, have significantly redefined people management beyond the traditional perspective of HR into a more strategic role. In essence, the HR business model needs to be rethought to keep pace with the reality of a rapidly complex and changing business environment.

Business success requires a disciplined approach to improving people performance - the key source of competitive advantage in a global knowledge economy. The paradigm shift in the business model is also having a dramatic impact on HR and the HR strategies needed to reflect talent’s role in this competitive advantage. Organisations are not relying exclusively on IT or marketing strategies to sustain their competitive position but also on how their employees develop and contribute. As such, the role of HR is no longer limited to recruitment, incentives and people management. HR has evolved to become an important partner in every organization’s growth, driving the critical need to align HR strategies with the business.

Essentially, the HR business model needs to be reinvented with a priority to develop and integrate all the elements of organising and managing talent into a coordinated approach to support, complement and indeed drive business strategy. The term “HR business partner”, coined by management guru David Ulrich more than a decade ago, has fuelled the debate about HR’s emergence as a strategic player in today’s fast changing business and economic environment. Ulrich asserts that HR plays a direct role in determining competitive advantage through greater participation in strategic planning to help the business meet present and future goals. In this sense, HR’s functions should be integrated more thoroughly into business processes and outcomes - from the day-to-day all the way through to the long-term vista.

Despite the emergence of Ulrich’s model, the surrounding discussions in the HR world, and the understanding of HR’s growing importance in business strategy, there are still barriers that inhibit HR from taking this central role in the organisation. Studies have shown that while HR professionals perceive their department as a business partner, less than 15% of their time is actually allocated to related strategic activities. More often than not, the HR function is still treated as a service provider rather than one of the organisation’s core strategic functions. Given the crucial nature of the role of HR in a complex business landscape, HR professionals still face a struggle to reposition themselves as strategic partners to the business.

We have chosen this as the theme of this year’s Asia HRD Congress due to the centrality of this issue in the modern HR world and our drive to fully align HR and business strategies across the region.

Performance Management – 'Getting back to basics'

Overview
Being on the steps of organizational change within any organization is a double edge sword. With one side providing challenges to scope out limitless possibilities and determining key catalysts to drive positive change, then on the other side directional in-trepidation. Each organisation seeks to have the perfect approach and framework in terms of managing performance and developing people however in a lot of cases they opt for a cut and paste approach investing significant effort and yielding mediocre results that do not support the needs. Performance management for any organization needs to be organic and from within, it needs to be fit for purpose and it needs to be infused and evolve from the from the inside out and it needs to align individual needs with business objectives. The key that separates organisations that get it right from those that do not is leadership. Leaders need to drive it, support it and without their active participation regardless of how sophisticated the system or process, it will never gain traction and embed as a culture to grow and develop talent and manage underperformance.

We are on the steps of change within Jumeirah and one of our key drivers is our Performance Management processes. For us it’s about getting back to basics and getting the right foundations in place. I will share where we have been, the challenges, and where we hope to go to achieve a successful Performance Management Culture.

From Imitator to Innovator – The Question of Creativity

Overview
The creativity challenge facing organisations in Asia has been well documented. Moving our perceived regional strength from imitator to innovator is becoming more and more critical as the region seeks to maintain its growth.

At a time when a slowdown in exports is challenging Asia's role as the factory of the world, and fixed costs continue to rise, governments are expressing interest in steering their countries up the value chain to position the region for more than just an easy market or staff base to exploit. One way our region is looking to compete more broadly is for our people to become the creators and not the copiers. Growth as a back end processor has limitations but how to build the skills to become a front end pioneer?

In this workshop we will look at a few ways to start the move to innovation. Discovering where innovation and process meet we can leverage our current regional strengths and skills to deliver a critical future capability need. This workshop is a must for every HR professional aiming to move their business ahead of the game in developing innovation capability and motivating a new set of behaviours.

Areas Covered in Session:
1. Is there a process of innovation
2. What if? Innovation culture by asking the right question.
3. Motivating for innovation: Failing fast & keeping face

Winning Workplaces - the critical role values play in creating and sustaining organisational success.

Overview
Is your organisational culture all you want it to be? Come along and explore with us the added value you get by adding values!

As Peter Drucker rightly said, ‘Culture eats strategy for breakfast’. Instinctively, we know he is right. All organisations have a culture (based on values) but too often it is not the one we want. The culture is based on faulty values that undermine the very characteristics we know make organisations thrive. (Or worse still, values that can lead to corporate scandals!) This workshop provides a business case for implementing a strong values based culture. It provides you with an opportunity to share ideas, learn from the experiences of others, ‘play’ with implementation strategies to determine what will work best for your organisation and develop plans that support practical transition to and embedding of positive and productive values in the workplace.

Organisations do not have to choose between achieving profit and working to strong (ethical) values. Values based organisations build trust that nurtures and sustains quality relationships with all stakeholders – shareholders, employees, customers, and the community. These relationships act like glue and attract people to the business, in turn ensuring its success. In fact, values engage and enable the collaboration and innovation that underpins performance. As they become part of an organisation’s DNA they build brand and ensure performance over the long term.

Attend this workshop to experience how strong, aligned values foster commitment, performance and focus.

Areas Covered in Session:
1. The case for a values based organisation – how organisations and their people thrive when values (ethics) are lived
2. The role of leaders - from formal to authentic power where values, vision and goals, not coercion and rules, create mutual trust, shared leadership and responsibility
3. Determining and translating values – What matters most to your organisation?
4. Going from ‘knowing’ the values to ‘living’ the values - What it takes to embed new values. How organisations achieve extensive and intensive participation – with staff and stakeholders.
5. Focusing on preferred outcomes and vision where values rather than imposed rules and task lists act as the organisational glue. The safety net – leaders who communicate, collaborate and coach – rewards that reinforce goal achievement based on sound values.
6. Creating effective communication capacity - practical strategies that achieve internal traction, help overcome any internal cynicism or resistance to the new values and enhance the organisation’s brand.

Session Style: Please note case studies from a range of organisations, including those with an Asia Pacific presence, will be threaded through the workshop. Participants will have an opportunity to apply the learning and plan practical steps for their organisations. The aim is to give participants the information and strategies they need to make a difference when they return to their workplaces. A workbook will be provided.

• What kinds of organizations have a high propensity for innovation?
• What kinds of people have high potential to produce great ideas and thus innovation?
• What motivates these people? How can innovation leaders play a role in growing innovation, and how can the performance system impact on innovation?

Vinodh Chelambathodi

Vinodh Chelambathodi
Global Head HR
Polaris
India

When asked which discussion was hard for an executive to handle - either with the bosses or with the subordinates, most of us would say that it is the performance appraisal discussion! Lot of hesitation, dissatisfaction and misapprehension surrounds performance appraisal discussion/process.

Here is a man who says, performance appraisal ‘dialogue’ was a cherished conversation for him and his team members. Vinodh Chelambathodi, Global head – HR, with 180 members reporting from different geographies is here to share what went into the conventional process to make it a ‘consensus dialogue’.

Heading the HR function of Polaris whose clientele comprises of top 7 banks and top 9 insurance firms of the world, Vinodh has astute humour in his dialogue.

Having worked with organizations like HCL, Capgemini and Flextronics and others over 20 years and having played different roles up the ladder, this ‘Quiet’ leader shares how ‘Design thinking’ has helped him in his pursuit.

An elite HR professional, Vinodh is Contemporary, Collaborative and Swift in his decisions and moves.

A fitness aficionado, Vinodh holds Masters Diploma in Personal Management, from NIPM, Kolkata, and Masters Diploma in Business Administration, from Madras Christian College, Chennai, India.

Vinodh is married to Kala and when out of office, Vinodh loves to spend time with his 12 yr old daughter Shreya as he loves to see her grow up. Willys, Royal Enfield, Sudoku and Books take a back seat when Shreya is in front of him.

People, Performance and Dialogue: How a simple dialogue can reinstate conviction in people!

Looking at the topic, few may think that the performance dialogue would be a mellowed conversation in a preachy tone happening between the manager and the subordinate on obstacles in task versus solutions of the shelf.

"But Performance Dialogue could possibly be a dynamic conversation that happens between a manager and his subordinate".

When two people discuss an issue, each one would perceive the issue in his/her own terms and try to discuss about it based on his/her own understandings. In the same scenario, when one person is speaking, if the other observes the thinking of the former, chances are there for them to arrive on same page and to have better empathy.

While the rest of the world knows that the performance dialogue should happen all through the year, PDD has spaced specific actionable across the year and has interestingly weaved dialogue process around these blocks namely, Doing, Thinking, Feeling, Being and State of Mind. A host of measures and actions built in each brand ensures comprehensive performance development.

If you are looking at tying the organization goals to the last individual in an organization, this is the session you ought to attend!

Areas Covered in the Session:
1) People related challenges in Appraisal
2) Process capability of PDD
3) 5 blocks of PDD - Doing, Thinking, Feeling, Being and State of Mind
4) What constitutes the FUN

Performance management is one of the critical activities of Human Resources Management, and one which is often perceived negatively by line managers as an HR tool which doesn’t help them manage their teams.

Accelerated Organizational Performance through Performance Management

Performance Management System (PMS) is more than the end of the year appraisal. Performance Management System focuses not only on individual employees, but also on teams, programs, processes and the organization as a whole. A robust PMS can help Organizations to achieve their objectives through proper alignment of Individual and Organizational goals, leading to a performance driven culture. A robust PMS has the following key elements:

• A clear line of sight between the individual and organisational goals
• An integrated set of measures at the organisation, team and individual level
• A process of on-going review, feedback and coaching
• An accurate process for evaluating assessments across multiple appraisers
• Reinforcement of the desired performance and behaviours through both monetary and non-monetary means

But many organizations fail to execute their plans in spite of having a solid performance strategy in place. What are some of the challenges they face? How can we overcome them?

This session aims at finding answers for the above questions and also to get more insight on the correlation between PMS and Organizational performance.

Areas Covered in Session:
1. How can PMS enhance Organizational Performance
2. PMS and Organizational Culture
3. Organizational challenges in PMS

.................................................................................................    THEME    .................................................................................................

The current economic uncertainty demands that organisations reinvent themselves and adopt new business paradigms in creating sustainable advantage. Globalisation and its need for stronger regional HR capabilities, coupled with the demographic shifts which have dramatically affected the availability of qualified people around the world, have significantly redefined people management beyond the traditional perspective of HR into a more strategic role. In essence, the HR business model needs to be rethought to keep pace with the reality of a rapidly complex and changing business environment.
