The series featured two panel discussions, spotlighting HR leadership, talent acquisition strategies, and business resilience in Cambodia’s evolving economic landscape.

Proactive workforce planning and upskilling

Aligning employee strategies with organizational goals
Panel 2: Building Resilient, High-Performance Teams
The second panel, conducted in Khmer and moderated by Pisey Vann, focused on workforce resilience. Speakers like Sheanghai Lao (Royal Group), Rithy Lim (Prince Bank), and Chenda Keo (Forte Insurance) discussed:
-
Attracting and retaining top talent in a competitive market
-
Skill development, clear career pathways, and fair compensation
-
Leveraging technology to enhance recruitment efficiency
Consensus across the discussion: long-term business success hinges on strategic HR leadership and employee loyalty.
