The Ninth Issue of HR Echo Magazine released

Tuesday December 18, 2018

The Federal Authority for Government Human Resources (FAHR) has released the eighth issue of the specialized HR Echo Magazine, which is issued semi-annually, in Arabic and English, in partnership with 21 leading global human resources organizations such as the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), US; Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), UK; Boston Consultancy Group (PCG); Monash University in Australia; Gallup Institute; AQR; International Professional Managers Association (IPMA), in addition to researchers and specialists in human capital management and development from around the world.

In this regard, HE Aisha Al Suwaidi, Executive Director of HR Policies Sector, FAHR, said: “With the publication of the 9th issue of the HR Echo Magazine, four years have now elapsed since the publication of the magazine for the first time, during which it has proven itself as a specialized HR magazine, capable of keeping pace with the developments of human capital, including global experiences, research and practices.

"Over the past four years, the Federal Authority for Government Human Resources (FAHR) has managed to create a wide readership for the magazine, including specialists and people interested in HR. It was able to establish a global network of partners to issue a rich and informative bilingual magazine. The partners included international universities and institutions and expert houses specialized in the field of human resources.

Aisha Al Suwaidi added that every edition of the biannual magazine sheds light on a pivotal issue that concerns HR professionals and serves the trends and visions of the UAE, which is racing with time in quest of new developments that will enhance its global leadership and competitiveness.

On the contents of the Magazine’s eight issue she said: “This issue of the magazine highlights a series of vital topics focused on: (the implications of artificial intelligence and rapid technological development on the work and future of institutions, the roles of human resources working for them, and their role in maintaining their position as they are faced with interesting yet intense competition from the machine, where the need arises for new competencies and skills, diligent pursuit of continuous learning, development of survival skills, and keeping pace with the demands and needs of the labor market).

She added that the magazine also deals with the dialectical relationship between artificial intelligence or the machine on the one hand and the “employee” on the other. Studies and research confirm that the relationship is complementary as they are indispensable for one another. At a time when some jobs are becoming obsolete as some technological developments are taking center stage, other new jobs emerge given the needs of this stage.

Al Suwaidi concluded her review of the ninth edition of HR Echo stressing that the present issue of the magazine reflects the direct call on organizations to invest in the development of their employees' skills, urging them to continuously develop soft skills, including critical and strategic thinking, and acquiring continuous learning skills, which is an indicator of the success of the organization and an opportunity to retain employees.

Finally, she highlighted some important topics discussed in this issue including: (Corporate Social Responsibility, the impact of employees' financial well-being on their productivity and organizations, the role of corporate leaders in facing change and moving towards a secure future for their organizations).
