The Great HR Debate

The ‘Great HR Debate’ has been conceived to discuss the hard-hitting topics of people strategy in India.

Technology has invaded our lives and work in the last two years. Learning hasn’t escaped untouched either. Rather, it has emerged in a completely new form.

Delivery, content and consumption of learning has changed drastically.

Let’s debate on what ‘LearnTech’ will look like in 2022.

In the LearnTech special edition of ‘The Great HR Debate’, HR honchos and learning heads will delve, deliberate and debate on topical issues in L&D.

The debate will examine new approaches and impact of technology in learning, and unravel valuable insights from the corporate world.

The panel will not just express opinions but reveal bold ambitions and challenge the laggards.

We will learn the hard truths about the scale of the challenges as well as unprecedented opportunities for real change.

DATE Friday, December 10
