    Title

    People (human capital) are the most important assets of any organization and the success of an organization largely depends on the management of its human capital. Yet, in today’s organizations there is a strong focus on controlling the bottom line.

    Progressive Human Resource Executives have recognized that using Human Capital Metrics, to support business decisions provides direct links to organizational results in quantitative terms that are readily understood by other executive decision-makers.Organisations are focussing on the human capital mix to ensure the most effective solution is employed in all operations. This has required a move away from just utilising recruitment suppliers to provide ad hoc placement of Perm and Temp staff. Rather, the trend is to look for total human capital solutions providers.

    Institutional arrangements and human capital enhancement remain serious concerns in South Africa. We will need to strive to enhance and retain our human resources and recognise that our human capital possesses the skills and knowledge that are important to the well-being of South Africa. We are also faced with the challenge to consolidate our human resources and institutional arrangements to ensure competitiveness and a single point of responsibility. This implies that the institutional arrangements to ensure delivery of much needed infrastructure must have integrity and be beyond reproach. The challenge is to avoid fragmentation and inaction due to a lack of coordination within organisations. Kindly contact the details below for further event details.

    "“There are a limited number of human capital drivers that will have the most significant influence upon organisational performance in the year’s immediately ahead. They constitute leadership, engagement, talent management and innovation” – 2008 Human Capital Development Report"

    Africa’s acute skills shortage, volatility of the economy, the Employment Equity Act and uncertainty of markets are experienced across all sectors and are a critical block to development and competitiveness which have resulted in a strategic shift of corporate mindset
