COVID-19 has drastically changed the world, and business as usual is no longer a possibility. The massive disruption caused by the pandemic has confronted organizations with fundamental questions on business models and the future of work itself.
According to Ashish Dhawan, Founder and Chairman, Board of Trustees, Ashoka University, “COVID-19 is changing businesses in a dramatic way. Working at any time and from anywhere has opened up many possibilities for organizations to seek talent, including virtual internships. We also need to assess the changing demographics of the workforce and the impact it will have on diversity, particularly the participation of women and youth. As organisations prepare for an uncharted future, they will also need employees who are equipped with the right skill sets and attitudes to combat challenging times.”
The conference will bring together HR communities, corporate leaders, global thinkers and stakeholders to discuss the future of work practices including working anytime, anywhere, virtual internships, redesigning of the workplace as well as skills that will be essential in the post COVID-19 situation including critical writing, analytical thinking, effective communication and social responsibility.
