When 2020 began, a few would have deduced that a full year is going to be spent on getting used to remote working. A year later, 2021 turned out to be all about recovery, redefining work, alternate offices, rampant hiring, and also the ‘great resignation’ - all the while vaccination was in full swing. The role of HR gained so much significance since then and moved from being just a support function in an organisation to becoming a decision-maker in the business strategy. This edition of All Things Talent will take a look at the year gone by to anticipate a “2022” that sees HR take up a more crucial role in all industries.

Talent from Anywhere
Considering the talent landscape of family-led consumer durables industry from three or four years ago, 90 percent of the talent movement would have happened between the industry and within the industry. However, in the last two to three years, some significant shift is happening. For example, a lot of people CGCEL hired were not from the industry right now. Many of the competitors have become much more open to hiring people from other industries. Read More
