So, that’s something that I really overcome over these years and we can talk about it, you know, as we go along. And then, you know, training facilitation was done again, classroom again, more very interactive face to face and I know you can take it on and it goes on and on, even grievance redressal for example. So, you know the challenges that over the years that somewhere with technology there’ve been challenges of meeting people face to face, getting them to be, you know, interactive with each other. So, what I’ve kind of tried to learn over the years is to adjust, to adapt, and also to adopt to the new trends and needs of employees without losing that human touch. Example, let me say, back in the day you had a leave letter where you had people talking between the manager and the subordinate, and then you had abrasions where there was a one on one conversation between two people, the attendance registers were signed, so there was again a face to see in the morning and smile to happen, this sharing salary payouts were happened in the earlier in the day it was cash and then cheques, so there was someone to look forward and give you your cheque. I’ll give you a few examples then you know it may run and be a little nostalgic but I just want to give you a few examples, what I say, you know, technological advancements and how we still need to be connected with people.
So, one of them you know, I always would like to say that you know trying to being connected, especially in today’s world despite technological advancements. So yes, I’ve had ups and downs in my career but I like to run a few challenges with you and you know how this journey has been very interesting for me. Willis: Yeah, it’s definitely an exciting time that I’ve had, Shankar, and I’m more than glad to share with you the journey thus far. It’s been very very interesting for me and you know I’m a firm believer that every experience is worthwhile and often we forget that the worthwhile decisions have come from good experiences and these good experiences are the resultant of learnings from the wrong decisions sometimes that we have made. So, Willis, can u please share about your HR journey and then the challenges you have faced in becoming who you are today? Willis: Thank you so much, Shankar and I appreciate it, Thank you. He has a plethora of experience and then worked on several employee initiatives, so we look forward to speaking to him in this TalentCast to know more about his journey and then learning from him. So, he joined Avnet in 99 and then grew up from executive, manager, director and now he is the head of HR.
