MTI HRM Solutions (www.mtihrmsolutions.com) have announced their pioneering MTI HRM Forum 2013, which for the very first time in Sri Lanka will be based on a study of Top 100 Heads of HR and 50 CEOs in Sri Lanka.

The Sri Lankan HR fraternity and CEOs are expected to attend this event which will be held on 5 June, at 5.30 p.m. at the Galadari Hotel.

“Many HR Forums tend to focus on transplanting text book HR concepts to Sri Lanka and are highly opinionated. Further, some of the hard issues are not tackled sufficiently and in a structured manner, for example ‘Why do so few HR professionals go on to become CEOs?’ This is where the MTI HRM Forum will break new ground by challenging conventional wisdom and more importantly taking a business view of HR, not just the warm, fuzzy HR concepts!” said MTI CEO Hilmy Cader.

The MTI HRM Forum will comprise of two HR modules and one CEO module. Each module will commence with presentation of MTI research findings and thought leadership, followed by focused panels that will discuss the research finding and debate on relevant issues.

The core HR Panel will feature four of Sri Lanka’s top HR professionals representing the diversity of the Sri Lankan business community, including Expolanka Holdings PLC Head of Group HR and Vice President Association of HR Professionals Asitha Jayatunga, Standard Chartered Bank Head of Human Resources Deshika Rodrigo, Fonterra HR and Corporate Relations Director Roshan Kulasuriya, and Unilever Sri Lanka Director Human Resources and Corporate Relations Udayan Dutt.

The CEO panel will include Nayana Dehigama, EPIC Group of Companies Chairman / Managing Director and MAS Active Managing Director Shirendra Lawrence who are expected to bring out the entrepreneurial and corporate perception and challenges with HRM.

The presentation of the research findings and moderation will be through an international MTI team comprising MTI Senior HR Consultant Middle East and Asia, Darshan Singh, MTI Consulting CEO Hilmy Cader and MTI HRM Solutions Associate Consultant Niyanthini Kadirgamar.
