The senior team from Accenture conducted a riveting and engaging session at SIBM Pune  on the topic of “Liquid Workforce, a novel approach to talent acquisition and management”. Mr. Unmesh Pawar (Global Managing Director, Talent Acquisition), Miss Priyanka Bhatnagar (VP, Human Resources) and Mr. Amit Mudhale (GM, Human Resources) from Accenture collectively conducted  the session. Liquid Workforce is a new workforce trend wherein the industry has access to highly  agile skill-sets as and when they are needed. In an increasingly digital world, both knowledge-sets  and industry requirements are changing dynamically, which calls for a new, flexible and freelancing-oriented approach towards jobs.

The session was very interactive, and the speakers encourages students to live-tweet the  session as it progressed, with the hashtag ‘#beLiquid’. There was also an interesting group activity conducted, which gave students the chance to explore and apply Liquid Workforce concepts to their own business ideas.

It was a great opportunity for SIBM students to learn the current trends in HR !
