With economic, climate and pandemic pressures creating an environment of constant challenge for today’s businesses, many look at organizational agility as the way to increase resilience and ensure speedy recovery from events – such as the ‘black swans’ or the slower-evolving challenges. But embedding agility is challenging. It requires the right leadership – not just at the top, but right through the process of driving agility in the organization. Agile leaders are the ones who motivate and guide people through the biggest challenges. In HR we talk about an agile mindset which is more than just post-it notes and scrum boards. It is all about moving out of the traditional best HR practices and embracing a test and learn approach to deliver value, value that is validated by people and their experience of work. At Sapphire Connect, we believe that the key to success is to find it through a test and learn cycle and HR leaders have the ability to revolutionize and help co-create the future of work by transforming and meeting the challenges of a volatile, uncertain and complex business world.

Having said this, we are glad to announce the 2nd Edition of “India’s Most Agile HR Leaders 2022” Coffee Table Book where we would be featuring HR leaders who have experimented, tested and learned on how to reinvent their people operations to be more human-centric and deliver business value, no matter what industry or type of organization they have worked in.
