About the Conference

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become the next big landscape, which is evolving at an exponential pace. Its versatility has percolated into the domain of Human Resources, where AI-powered tools are increasingly assisting professionals. However, alongside the promise of this disruption, the needs of the employees are evolving, making it imperative to rethink sustainability in HRM and help them navigate the impact. The 6th HRIC aims to redirect the conversations toward disruption in the industry and explore how HRM can be reimagined to equip employees with the right skills and mindset to navigate the major changes dictated by these disruptions. Previous HRIC conferences have been conducted in China, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand and South Africa.
