Starting from the changes brought in the strategic business decisions to the day-to-day operations, the whole gamut of business operations have been modified to suit the new normal business. While the world today is making an effort to recover and operate in the post-covid era, the role of HR is becoming even more important, to sustain the business excellence by acting as the driving force in keeping the people in organizations engaged, productive and resilient. Worldwide, the organizations today are expecting the HR not only to facilitate in redefining the organizational culture, but also to inculcate the mindset among employees to tune to achieve stability and sustenance.
