The Reason Behind My Passion For Operations & Supply Chain - Anurag From XLRI

Nowadays I have a few points on my resume like Six Sigma Green Belt, MBASKOOL.Com’s Most Popular Article award for authoring “Building a Supply Chain for Rural India”, published articles in XLRI & VGSOM’s Operations Magazines etc. to justify my interest for Operations & Supply Chain but the real knack for Ops developed or essentially the kick, came from an unskilled worker’s appreciation in a consulting assignment in a FMCG firm. To illustrate the fact, I need to go down the memory lane to Jan-Feb 2014 when I was working with one of the big 4 as a functional SAP Consultant in Production Planning domain. I was stationed in Kolkata as an onsite consultant in a leading biscuit and cake manufacturing company where I was responsible for As-Is study, To-Be design, Business Process Reengineering & successful implementation of the same.

HR Analytics: Manage What You Measure - Bhavya From XLRI, Jamshedpur

HR analytics seems to be the latest buzz word within HR these days with its potential to transform HR practices, and the way HR is perceived in organizations. HR policies and processes have always played a huge role in business strategy, but quantifying their impact has always been a problem for human resources (HR) executives. Gut feeling and historical practices determine the answers to questions such as “Which method of performance appraisal will yield the best results?” or “What is the impact of training programs on the business' bottom-line?”
