Dr. Subhash Chandar, Global CHRO, Laminaar Aviation Infotech Group
Imagine a workplace where you bring your entire self and not just your skills and your to-do list. This isn't wishful thinking; it's the cornerstone of a thriving organization. As writer Betty Bender eloquently captured, ‘When people go to work, they shouldn't leave their hearts at home’. While a perfectly harmonious atmosphere might be aspirational, exceptional HR leaders like Dr Chandar can foster a work environment that ignites genuine enthusiasm, a sense of belonging, and a commitment to shared excellence. They are the architects of a space that transcends the mundane, where transparency reigns supreme, and the experience actively cultivates growth, learning, and innovation. This is particularly critical in complex industries like aviation, technology, and manufacturing, where fostering a culture of continuous improvement & excellence is paramount.
