| Business Strategy & Business Intelligence: Business Continuity Management - Kuala Lumpur |
15 Jul 2009 - 16 Jul 2009 Rude reminders to all organisations that BCM should not be disregarded - be it regional, national, man-made or acts of god. No business is invulnerable to minor downtimes and major unknowns.These are just the tip of the iceberg, many business interruptions are embedded within the layers of your critical business activities itself, be it Strategic, Operational, Financial, Legal or Compliance. None of these would be considered "disasters" in the traditional sense. They avoid the biblical proportions of famine, locusts, plague, and pestilence. But yet, it is enough to deliver a crippling blow to your business operations. While many organisations have business continuity plans in place to address the impact of a crisis on their continuing operations, the catastrophes that were envisioned in most disaster recovery or business continuity plans were somewhat narrow in scope.

| HR, Leadership & Organisational Development: Integrated Talent Management - Dubai |
14 Jun 2009 - 16 Jun 2009 Just less than a year ago as oil prices soared, Arab Gulf countries were the envy of wealth-seekers across the globe. The booming economy of Middle Eastern countries has in the recent years, created millions of jobs and led to a hiring frenzy for skilled professionals. According to the 2008 Middle East Human Capital Survey conducted by Ernst and Young, expatriates comprise half of the workforce
in countries such as Kuwait, United Arab Emirates and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Alarmingly, ILO reported that global unemployment in 2009 could increase over 2007 by a range of 18 million to 30 million workers, and more than 50 million if the situation continues to deteriorate. Unemployment has rise to a staggering 15% in many Arab countries. In the wake of the global financial crisis, human resources professionals in Middle East are walking on a tight rope in order to balance between
securing the immediate survival of their businesses while continuing to retain and acquire the right talent.
