Dying as in failing to catch up with the needs of technological human resource or collapse as an institution for failing to adapt the needs of the new generation.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2018That is why you have to come up with a candid discussion to respond the changing world that has seen us being joined by the new generation. Therefore, your theme for this year\u2019s conference sets the tone on how technology can foster output in working places,\u201d said Chilima.<\/p>\n<p>He then asked the HR professionals to get familiar with the Malawi 2063 agenda, where policies and leading projects have been defined and prioritized, saying it is not by coincidence that human capital development is well adopted in the 2063 agenda.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2018In 2021, President Lazarus Chakwera launched the 10-year implementation plan which will take us to 2030. The plan emphasizes the role of the private sector both as an engine of growth, and a major driver for transformation. In this case, the private sector includes you as Human resource experts,<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2018All the pillars that make up the 2063 blueprint, such as agricultural productivity and commercialization; industrialization and urbanization, will heavily rely on human capital for implementation, hence as government, we recognize the important role people management and human capital play in national development,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n<p>At this point, Chilima assured IPMM which was formed in 1984 that government is committed to work with the organization for improvement of worker\u2019s welfare in the country adding government will ensure that the Human Resource Bill should be presented to Parliament during the coming session for enactment.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, President for IPMM Godwin Ng\u2019oma asked members of the body to do the right things in a right manner for them to bring change to the society.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
