About the conference
As the economies across the globe unshackle themselves from the COVID crisis, a remarkable disruption is being seen across multitudes of sectors. A significant restructuring or a ‘New Normal’ is being witnessed which is proving to be a defining moment for businesses and how they are generally viewed and conducted. The ‘New Normal’ which is affecting, rather reshaping, the lives of millions of people also brings to us uncharacteristic challenges which till now had never been visualised given the propensity of the black swan event i.e., the pandemic.
In this background, the theme of the conference, “Resilience, Reinvention and Repositioning: Towards the Next Normal” focusses on the way towards shaping the economies of the future. The thematic renaissance during this perilous time is being driven by a latent urge to attain excellence through disruptive thought processes and out-of-the-box innovations in the field of business and research. Reinvention of the business models and their persistence beyond crisis is the key to address the challenges and stay competitive in the market.
The ‘Next Normal’ has also created a need for the organisation to re-engage with their human resources and reinvent their workplaces. Thus, one of the key takeaways of this doctoral conference would be to explore the possible solution of non-conventional challenges utilizing out of the box thinking.
