ASIA HR SUMMIT 2018

Overview

Who We Are

**Asia HR Summit 2018** with Elite Sponsorship by **engageSPARK**, **First Advantage**, **Regus** and **Sprout Solutions** is about Thinking BIG. Why is that HR is often called a "soft function"? Why are HR leaders usually listed on the bottom of the company website? Why are there so many nasty jokes about HR? Why do all other professions seem to become CEO's but HR people rarely do? It is time for all HR leaders to move up to take their rightful places at the top of organizations. Learn from others who already have. Be with us for **Asia HR Summit 2018** with Elite Sponsorship by **engageSPARK**, **First Advantage**, **Regus** and **Sprout Solutions** on May 23 at the Manila Marriott.
