There has never been a better time to share and exchange ideas on how to transform the role of HR, overcome the challenges of Saudisation, implement effective rewards packages and recruit and retain talented staff. Building on the exceptional success of the Middle East HR Summits, the most recent of which was held in Abu Dhabi in November 2007, IIR is pleased to announce the inaugural Middle East HR Summit – Saudi Arabia. The human resource function plays an increasingly important role in an organisation’s ultimate success or failure in today’s rapidly changing and highly competitive environment.

With the focus of HR shifting from a traditional administrative function to that of a strategic role where it is seen as an investment and a value-added activity to your organisation, significant cultural change is inevitable. 

Middle East HR Summit – Saudi Arabia gives you the opportunity to develop effective strategies that are key to the success of your organisation. It will offer a platform for debate, questions, answers, creativity and knowledge. It will bring together a significant group of like-minded professionals with the expertise to ensure an interesting and tangibly beneficial experience.

With a mix of keynote presentations, targeted panel sessions and networking opportunities, including a structured networking session, the aim of the Summit is to develop key solutions which you can immediately implement back in your office. The Summit will focus on how you can add value to your organisation by:
• Transforming the HR function
• Making your Saudisation programme successful
• Engaging high performers and retaining key talent
• Understanding the changing context and nature of the employee and employer relationship
• Implementing a successful succession planning programme

 If you are currently involved in the HR function in your organisation and would like to exchange knowledge and experience with leading HR / Nationalisation professionals, then this is the Summit for you.
