In2Matrix was delighted
to participate in the IV annual conference for HR and Financial Directors held
on 14 June 2017, organised by ACCA Russia and BDO Unicon Outsourcing. This
conference was attended by more than 200 HR and Finance directors of various
industries.
‘HR & Finance: Hand
in Hand’, was the presentation of Gerard Baltazar, Chairman & CEO of the In2Matrix
Group and member of the advisory board of RBCC (Russo-British Chamber of
Commerce). ‘I hope you all agree that employees are the most important
assets - not just buildings, machines, stocks and shares. Nourishing and
cherishing this most important asset is the key to the success of any business.
Traditionally, the HR and Finance departments each have been focused on
different areas of the business strategy. HR professionals were dedicated to the
effective and efficient deployment of human capital, focusing on attracting and
retaining talents, while finance managers often viewed the human capital merely
as a cost and the HR department as an expense, which does not generate revenue.
Luckily, recent trends show that the traditional roles of HR and Finance are
shifting: both departments are finding their focuses overlap more and more.
From the perspective of the Finance department profitability remains the goal;
however, that goal cannot be reached without a high-performing workforce, who
is aiming to meet the same objective. To achieve this objective, it is crucial
that both HR and Finance professionals work together hand in hand.’
It is important to
note, that the conference was held this year under the title «HR & FINANCE: SURFING LESSONS. HOW TO CONQUER THE
WAVE OF CHANGES AND MANAGE TO STAY ON» -
therefore the topic of consolidation of employee benefits programs as one of
the methods to maximise cost savings was of great interest to the conference
attendees.
The conference also covered other hot topics such as: ‘what
to do if a company is not ready yet for changes’, ‘most effective HR and
Finance trends’ and ‘how to address the ever changing market’.
