Roshni Nadar Malhotra is Executive Director & CEO, HCL Corporation, and Vice Chairperson of HCL Technologies. In an engaging interview, she shared her thoughts on trends that will define the future of the workforce with Global Head of Thought Leadership at HCL Technologies, Neha Anand.
Identifying key cross-industry trends to watch
During the interview, Roshni says: “One of the trends that one has been hearing a lot of companies talk about, not just technology companies but companies in the financial world and also the manufacturing world, is a discussion not so much about technology…but around the workforce.”
She explains that although technology continues to be a hot topic – especially when it comes to artificial intelligence and blockchain – the subject of transforming the workforce is being thought about more and more.
“There are a lot of discussions around how each company is looking to really disrupt their workforce,” she adds. “And by that I mean in terms of skills, in terms of up-skilling, in terms of how to find the balance between the right kind of workforce and productivity and the right infusion of technology.”
Roshni believes that industries and businesses are “right on the cusp” of something very unique happening in terms of the workforce.
She concludes with a question: “How do you actually match the right skills to the right people in a company to make it as productive as possible?”
