In this exclusive leadership dialogue series on The Leaderonomics Show, Roshan Thiran finds out more about the state of human resources (HR) in Malaysia today from Professor Dave Ulrich, the Rensis Likert Professor at the Ross School of Business, University of Michigan and a partner at The RBL Group, and R. A. Thiagaraja, founder and chief executive officer of KPintar Sdn Bhd.

Some of our burning questions posed to the panelists include:

  • What are some of the challenges we are facing as HR professionals in Malaysia?
  • Where do agencies like TalentCorp and HDRF come in to help with some of these HR challenges? Are we doing enough?
  • We have great HR frameworks but we sometimes fail to execute them well. How can we improve to make things happen?
  • What would the future of HR be in Malaysia?
