Kaushik Mahapatra, leadership coach, Indian leadership academy spoke on the subject "NLP and accelerated learning". Neuro linguistic programming (NLP) enables the process of 'figuring out things for ourselves'. Rather than helping or seeking help from another it enables people to 'empower each other'. It has now been scientifically acknowledged that a lot of things get done through the power of the subconscious mind. It is important to make our power of observation strong.This can be achieved by practising awareness i.e. by being in the present.
The three words comprising NLP are Neuro ( five senses through which we perceive the world, Linguistic( the language we use, the way we communicate with self and others) and programming (that happens as a result of the combination of language and neurons). We can grow by enhancing the power of observation and our lingo. Excellence happens when you effectively integrate neuro and the language. Indian Leadership Academy offers courses and training programs on NLP and other self growth, performance improvement subjects.

The next session was on "Psycho metric testing" by Dr Manjunath.S.A. representing Dynaminds consulting pvt Ltd & Allevare academy pvt Ltd. The speaker started out by saying that everyone of us are designed to succeed. Yet, not everyone do. We tend to continue interpreting our life on the basis of or influenced by our prejudices. Psychometric testing is a tool that helps you to go back to the empty state in which you have been designed to succeed.It gives you insights into your strengths and also 'red flags' on which you can work for improvement.
However, a psychometric test is not an end in itself. It is a guideline that needs to be followed up with training programs. A battery of programs that touch critical life stages for a solution to life challenges is the key.. Dr manjunath said that his organization Dynaminds consulting offers opportunities to understand the art and science of psychometric testing and also for getting trained in it. They also support those interested, to set up their own coaching practice.

The speaker said that HRDians have a bounden duty to help in making people ready for jobs in the next 5 to 10 years.One thing one cannot buy is motivated employees. Therefore the pessimistic predictions apart, "We, the HR people will be in demand in the next 10 years" he concluded.
We then had a panel discussion on the topic "HR in 2030".It was predicted during the discussion that the three driving forces in the future would be (1) Crucial conversations between you and your employees (2) Possessing the skill and the will to engage everyone in the organization given a climate of diversity and BOTS having a much bigger role (3) Retaining our humaneness with a willingness and ability to exhibit empathy. More of analytics as an enabler would be the game changer with employees in HR performing high end roles. There would be more happiness coaches,and executive coaches to assist in taking decisions based on numbers. There would be multi generational and multi racial workforce.
