News Article - Prof Sattar Bawany
Interv iew with: Prof Sattar Bawany,CEO of Centre For Executive Education(CEE GLOBAL) and alsothe Managing Director of EDA Asia Pacific, Singapore
Prof Sattar Bawany, is one of the speakers at the marcus evans 3rd Annual Global HR ExcellenceConference and will be delivering a plenary session on Leading and Engaging Today ’sMultigenerational Workforce
“This Conference provides a platform for HR Practitioners to network with their peers and develop theirunderstanding of the pressing trends and issues facing today's HR and Business Leaders. By bringingtogether executives, thought leaders and partners, the Conference cover and discuss topics fromdiverse points of view. Be a part of leading HR conversations and join us at this 3rd Annual Global HRConference.It also serves as an excellent opportunity for HR as Strategic Business Partner, responsiblefor planning and developing the future leadership of their organization to discuss key issues, test ideas,share perspectives and learn from peers.
During my Plenary Presentation on "Leading and Engaging Multigenerational Workforce", participantswill have the opportunity to enhance their understanding of generational characteristics and the impactof their own management practices and leadership styles on each of these groups. We will also bereviewing how organisation can leverage on their multi-generational workforce to effectively attractand retain employees, build teams, deal with change, and increase employee engagement", he said .
Be low is the full interv iew with Prof Sattar on his v iews and insights on HR Exce llence:
What is your expectation for the conference and what do you hope to hear from others atthe conference?I would expect the Speakers to share their knowledge and business and strategic HRM practices whichcould be viewed as contemporary, practical and relevant (CPR) to today's HR Professional.
What are the hot issues in the industry r ight now that should be addressed and discussed?From the ongoing dialogue with CEOs and Business Leaders, it is evident that what has been morefortunate for Asia-Pacific organisations is that they are buffered by the regional economic developmentas markets in the region are still expected to grow compared to sluggish recovery in the US andeconomic slowdown in Europe. Amidst the cautious optimism expressed by these leaders , they haveconsistently cited that a key challenge to achieving this growth is the talent factor. The competition fortalent in Asia-Pacific is intensifying. Although there is an abundance of raw talent in absolute terms, thecurrent profile of skills and capabilities is poorlymatched to the demands of the economy.
More than ever, Asia-Pacific organisations will need to be agile in their talent management strategies,in order to ensure that they have the human capital to adapt to the changing forces in the businessenvironment.
How do we determine the r ight leaders for the future, empower and reta in them?In essence, the heart of the leadership challenge that confronts future leaders is learning how to leadin situations of ever greater volatility and uncertainty in a globalised business environment, allied withthe needs to deal with scale, complexity and new organisational forms that often break with thetraditional organisational models and structures within which many have learned their ‘leadershiptrade’. So the basic assumption that past experience is the key for future leadership success is moreopen to scrutiny than ever.
Leadership is an art and a science. It is an art because it continually evolves, changes form, andrequires creativity. It is a science because there are certain essential principles and techniquesrequired. A good leader knows when it is time to change shape because they are highly attentive to

those around them. Coming from a position of strength, a great leader takes risks by freeing up thecreative genius in their followers to build their capability and multiply the talents of the organization.This leads to community and greatness. By powerfully communicating a vision that animates,motivates, and inspires followers, a great leader is able to transform his or her organization.
We are operating in a hypercompetitive business environment. The world moves faster today whencompared to 10 years ago. Companies feel the pressure to decrease time to market and improve thequality of products while delivering on ever-changing customer expectations to maintain competitiveposture – that is, be adaptive and nimble. Driving results is difficult even for companies who have thebenefit of dedicated and knowledgeable employees and business leaders to leverage.
Organizations need leaders to visualize the future, motivate and inspire employees, and adapt tochanging needs. On-going research indicates that, with the right leadership development supportincluding executive coaching, those with leadership potential can be developed into outstandingleaders. Emotional Intelligence competencies are perhaps the most challenging for leaders to developeffectively and yet it is the one that often has the most impact. As emotionally intelligent leaders risethrough the ranks of an organization, their profile becomes more visible to employees and theirincreased power can have greater impact.
What are the most challenging issues re lated to HR that have major impact onorganisations today?Despite the optimism surrounding future growth opportunities in the region, CEOs consistently cite acritical pressure point: talent. Several forces are converging to significantly change the workforcedynamic in the region:a) Demographic shifts - In many economies such as Japan and Singapore, declining populationgrowth is creating a labour shortage. Baby Boomers are retiring and the Gen Yers Leaders are not fullyequipped to take leadership rolesb) Ris ing people costs - Compensation is rising rapidly as talent has become scarce. This willexacerbate the rising operating costs and impact on their competitiveness.c) Large-sca le sk ills mismatch - Outdated strategies for education and training are no longeradequate for satisfying business or employee development needs in the new and knowledge-basedeconomy.d) Shortage of qualif ied employees - In the fast-growing economies, many organisations arefacing mounting talent challenges especially shortages of qualified, experienced and skilful managers.This is resonant with the ‘Peter Principle’ (formulated by Dr. Laurence J. Peter and Raymond Hull intheir 1969 book ‘The Peter Principle’) which states that in modern organisations, most managers rise tothe level of their least competence, like the specialist (e.g. accountant, engineer, lawyer etc.) who is sogood at their craft that they get promoted to a management position in 'charge of people' withouthaving mastered any real leadership skills.
Has there been any changes in your strategies towards succession planning? I f yes, whatare the aspects of these changes?Talent management and retention is perennially at the top of CEO’s most pressing worries. Acompany’s leadership pipeline is expected to deliver its “next generation” of ready-now leaders. Thekey to ensuring an organisation has the leaders it needs when it needs them, is to accelerate theperformance of future leaders including high potential employees, so that their skills and leadershipabilities are as strong as possible when they are needed particularly as leaders transition from role torole.
As CEO tenure continues to shrink, research have shown that with two out of every five new CEOsfailing in their first 18 months, it has become absolutely critical for companies to cultivate internalcandidates for top positions. Yet corporations are beginning to realize that executive geographic andorganization culture succession pipelines are broken and will adversely affect the ability to identify andnurture future leaders.
A company’s leadership pipeline is expected to deliver its “next generation” of ready-now leaders. Thepayoff is a supply of leadership talent that simultaneously achieves targets, bolsters and protectsethical reputation, and navigates transformational change in pursuit of a bright competitive future.Unfortunately, some Boards and CEOs neglect their talent management accountability - consequently,their pipelines run dry. When this occurs, the downward spiral of competitive capability becomesdiscernable, the edge is lost, and the “magic” disappears. The competition begins to outwit, outflankand outperform these companies.

Wednesday 15th October 2014
WORKSHOP ALPHA: STRATEGIC BUSINESS PARTNERING
In theory, the HR business partner model is designed to positively impact the business on all levels over time. In knowing the inner workings of the business, the HR partnership model is tasked with a corporate chess game of strategic thinking, employee engagement, and systemic thinking whilst keeping in mind the business issue. The business partner model relieves pressure from management the grueling issue of workforce planning, performance culture, as well as talent and change management.

WORKSHOP BETA: PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
Developing an effective performance management system which line managers lead and own is the key to getting things done right the first time and achieving the goals of the organisation as a whole.

Plenary Presentation on ‘Leading and Engaging a Multigenerational Workforce’ - 13 October 2014 1
3RD ANNUAL GLOBAL HR EXCELLENCE
13th – 15th October 2014, Singapore
Plenary Presentation On “Leading and Engaging Today’s Multi-generational Workforce”
OVERVIEW OF SESSION Today's workforce can be as diverse as having four different generations working together, each with their own distinctive styles, values and belief systems and ways of viewing work-related issues. Multi-generational work environments can breed misunderstanding and conflict, and can compromise growth. However, if managed effectively, it can be a source of positive challenge, opportunity, and significant growth. Organisations struggle with the challenges of effectively managing a more diverse workforce. These challenges often relate to variation in perspective, values and belief systems as a result of generational differences and are further complicated due to the age differences between managers and employees. The assumption - that people of varying ages will understand each other or have the same perspective and goals, is far from true. In order to be successful, managers need to understand and value the diversity resulting from generational differences, varying perspectives and differing goals. Each brings unique assumptions to the job. As a result, events in the workplace are often interpreted differently by individuals in different generations. What may seem like good news to a Boomer might well be an unsettling and unwelcome development to a member of Generation X. Things that members of Gen Y love often seem unappealing or frivolous to those in older generations. Generation Y or “Gen Y” for short – is the term most commonly used to refer to the cohort of individuals born in the 80s and 90s, who are already in the workforce. The Fifth generation, Gen Z or The Linksters will be coming into the workforce very soon. For Leaders who have four generations of employees sitting in a meeting or working on a project, it can seem like each generation has its own worldviews, priorities, career models, motives and values. The Leader need to enhance their understanding of generational characteristics and the impact of their own management practices on each of these groups. They need to leverage on the strengths of each generation. Taking full advantage of the multi-generational workforce will enable employers to effectively attract and retain employees, build teams, deal with change, and increase employee engagement (Bawany, 2013)
1. See Figure 1.
This highly interactive, informative and practical session will provide participants with a deeper understanding of what the differences are, how those differences impact their own perception and leadership style, how they manifest themselves in the participants’ own organization and effective ways to lead the people in their organization to become more harmonious, productive and mutually respectful. This session will include research findings on how to engage a multi-generational workforce, and how best to leverage on the strengths that each generation of employees bring to the table to create real value to the customers and the organisation as a whole. An intensely practical and insightful session designed for supervisors, team leaders and managers and to accelerate the practice of emotionally intelligent leadership in managing a multigenerational workforce towards organisational success and sustaining employee engagement and productivity.
