About Conference

In today’s volatile and competitive economic landscape, Human Resources can no longer function in a silo. The 2026 theme, ‘PEOPLE, PERFORMANCE, PROFIT,’ represents a paradigm shift—moving away from traditional personnel administration toward strategic business integration. This conference challenges the notion that ‘people focus’ and ‘profitability’ are opposing forces. Instead, we will demonstrate that an invested, healthy, and skilled workforce is the primary driver of operational excellence. By redefining the ‘Human Resource Equation,’ we aim to equip attendees with the modern frameworks needed to translate human capital directly into sustainable business growth and measurable financial returns
