The session will help participants build organisations that accomplish desired results, which is often called strategy execution. It is designed for both businesses leaders who are owners and primarily responsible for delivering results and for HR professionals who are architects to design and deliver effective organisations. “hSenid is proud to be a part of this CEO forum, which will mainly focus on building competitive talent in the global market. This event gives us the ability to showcase how we help organisations build and nurture talent,” hSenid Group of Companies Chairman Dinesh Saparamadu. “Professor Dave Ulrich in this session will provide insights on how to win in today’s ever changing marketplace. Competitive advantage means meeting customer needs in unique ways. Often, winning means meeting these criteria through strategic clarity that leads to innovative products or services. Professor Ulrich will help participants audit their current competitive advantage and help them see how organisation can build capabilities for future success,” said Dinesh Weerakkody. “The ability of a company to remain competitive will depend on the adaptability of its people. Adaptability is a skill which needs to be nurtured across the organisation that makes the function of Human resource management the only organisational pillar that reaches out to every individual in the organisation. Given the short supply of talent in Sri Lanka; Prof Dave Ulrich’s visit is most opportune for the CEOs of our corporates to be enlightened of the criticality of the people factor in the future of strategy” –, CIMA Regional director- Middle East, South Asia and North Africa Bradley Emerson.
