Changes In Role of HRM

 From Industrial Relations Mgt. to
Personnel Adam. to Personnel Mgt. to
HRM

workers to Over-ambitious MBA or techie
in hurry to become CEO
 Phenomenal amount of IT used
 What Evaluators Feel???
 Employees now demand control over their
careers, an enhanced pace of learning,
individualized attention and the exciting
possibility of unlimited growth.
 Employees are being pampered like never
before and erstwhile differentiators have been
relegated to the status of hygiene factors .
 Today, most companies have fairly
comprehensive HR systems. However, tried and
tested formula will no longer work.

resumes out of which only 22,913 were hired
 Infosys will have 70,000 employees by the end of this
fiscal!
 Need not come to office everyday and work from HOME
if you are a SAPIENT!
 Can Question your superior without fear of getting
sacked at MINDTREE!
 Not only your but your family members’ Birthdays are
celebrated t SATYAM COMPUTERS!
