REPOSITIONING FOR VALUE AND IMPACT
The 58th International Conference and Exhibition
In a world where standing still means falling behind, this conference challenges leaders and organisations to reposition, perform, and deliver real value. As competition intensifies and expectations rise, success now belongs to those who align people, culture, technology, and strategy to drive measurable impact.
The theme spotlights performance-driven leadership, innovation, data-powered decisions, and strong governance, positioning HR as a strategic enabler of business growth and national development.
This is where insight meets influence, and where organisations move from potential to performance.
Human resource practitioners play an important role in grooming and cultivating leaders who will lead, grow, and transform their countries for the goodwill and benefit of everyone. This year’s International Conference and Exhibition (ICE) aims to refocus human resource practitioners’ attention to their roles in nation building and national transformation, as well as the importance of leadership capacity building and human capital development in the growth and development of nation states.
The conference sessions will provide attendees with knowledge, insights, tools, experiences, frameworks, and new models required for leading and managing people & building and growing nations to thrive and flourish.
