KNOLSKAPE is a global leader in Experiential Learning, and an uncompromising focus on โ€˜Experienceโ€™ and โ€˜Learningโ€™ helps us retain that position and build on that reputation year after year. This also implies that the process of our learning, and then, sharing that learning is continuous and relentless.

KNOLSKAPE was recently a part of the Tech HR conference organised by People Matters, and we would like to share what we learnt at the event with all our peers:


General Observation

ยท Human interactions over coffee and lunch will always be more impactful than virtual meetings

ยท The excitement and joy of having in-person meetings was significantly visible among the delegates at the event

ยท The outcome of a single meeting of 20-30 minutes with co-attendees proves significantly more fruitful than several virtual interactions.


Health & Wellness

ยท Donโ€™t let the gadgets rule you

ยท Measure your steps โ€“ but do what your body allows you to do

ยท The best recovery is by a sound sleep โ€“ donโ€™t let your digital watch decide how many hours of sleep your body needs

ยท Eat 90% healthy (no packets, no processed) โ€“ up to 10% junk can be allowed in the diet

ยท Avoid burn-out โ€“ Focus on emotional healing, mindfulness, and physical fitness


Emerging Trends/Recommendation in HR

ยท Know the business you support. Be more insight driven than data driven

ยท Understand business goals and the outcomes expected

ยท If the business needs timely talent acquisition โ€“ make that a priority and donโ€™t focus on dashboards and policy changes

Enabling them for strategy execution and being the torchbearer for developing the right culture are imperatives.
