HRiday- The HR Forum Magazine

About the magazine:

HRiday, the brainchild of the HR Forum is an attempt to tap into the need to keep enriching our knowledge in the field of HR.

The magazine has been designed to cater to not just the HR cohort but to all the students, faculty and staff members of the institute. Apart from covering the latest trends, successful HR practices in organisations, HR concepts are explained through creative ways. HRiday also features conversations with CHROs through the HR Saga. It provides a platform to the prospective HR managers to showcase their take on current HR trends through student articles. Also, it challenges the readers to assess their HRQ- HR Quotient through the puzzles. The magazine was launched by our Director, Prof. Madhu Veeraraghavan and industry stalwarts Mr. Ganesh Chella and Mr. VJ Rao, authors of the book “HR Here and Now”.
