    • Entrepreneurship

In this Podcast (The CHRO Mindset), Anupam shares his personal HR mantra, drawing inspiration from the Bhagavad Gita, emphasizing the importance of performing duties without attachment to outcomes and maintaining equanimity in challenging situations. We explore Anupam's experience in convincing leadership to invest in new HR initiatives, where he navigated the balance between cost considerations and scalability, ultimately driving adoption for long-term benefits. Anupam also shares a compelling story of revitalizing a struggling HR department, where he implemented innovative solutions to improve offer acceptance rates and streamline recruitment processes. Furthermore, we discuss strategies for cultivating emotional intelligence (EI) among HR teams, emphasizing the importance of workshops, leadership development, feedback mechanisms, and inclusive culture. In addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, Anupam underscores the need for collaboration between employees and leadership, leveraging data-driven strategies, community outreach, and talent development. The conversation extends to the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in streamlining HR processes, where Anupam highlights opportunities for automation in recruiting, onboarding, training, employee engagement, performance management, and administration. Lastly, Anupam shares his insights into literature that has shaped his leadership journey, citing "3 Idiots" as a movie recommendation for following one's passion and the Bhagavad Gita as a timeless guide for understanding human behavior and living a fulfilling life.
