The meet addressed the expectations of Young India from the industry amid this New Normal, including hybrid work format.
The meeting was attended by human resource professionals. A panel comprising Jaidip Chatterjee, CHRO of SREI, together with an eminent jury, including Dipankar Dasgupta, director of IISWBM, ex-chairman - Public Service Commission, Government of West Bengal and Vishwesh Kulkarni, national president, NIPM, shared their views on the topic 'Remapping Organisational Boundaries'.
