HR summit, hosted by weekend MBA students at IIMB, focuses on ‘Evolving Role of HR in a Brittle, Anxious, Non-linear & Incomprehensible World’

Students of the weekend MBA, the Post Graduate Programme in Enterprise Management (PGPEM) at IIM Bangalore, organized and hosted the PGPEM HR Summit 2022 on Saturday, April 23, 2022. The theme of the event was ‘Evolving role of HR in a BANI world’.

The event had HR leaders from across industries and domains sharing their views on a range of topics, including employee experience, the “great resignation” trend, technology disruption in HR, collaborative intelligence, post-pandemic response of companies, and the role of AI in HR.

BANI is an acronym for Brittle, Anxious, Non-linear, Incomprehensible – a framework that was created by Jamais Cascio, an American anthropologist, author, and futurist. Many speakers touched upon these concepts while discussing the state of HR.
