CBBC plans to hold the “UK-China Human Resource Management Forum” on 22nd June in Guangzhou and 23rd in Shenzhen. Through this event British experts in the Human Resource sector may present their suggestions and experiences to their Chinese counterparts and by doing so help promote cooperation, an exchange of ideas and an opportunity to identify future business opportunities under the “Belt and Road” Initiative.
英中贸易协会拟定于6月22日和23日分别在广州和深圳举办 “ 中英人力资源管理研讨会”,活动将齐聚中英两国的人力资源资深人士,通过法律、招聘、人身保障、招聘等角度来分享英国人力资源管理的优点,并与中方人力资源人士讨论并碰撞思想,促进双方的合作与发展,挖掘“一带一路”建设下的人才发展新机遇。
Since 2013, when President Xi proposed the “One Belt One Road” strategy, China has achieved substantial progress and has driven the development of many industries and has required the mobilisation of a large number of key elements. Facing the new challenges and new opportunities brought by building the “Belt and Road”, enterprises have been required to reform and transform their internal management in order to adapt to the market changes and needs.
自2013年习近平主席提出“ 一带一路”战略构想以来,中国取得了诸多实质性进展,带动了众多产业的发展和巨量的要素调动。面对 “一带一路”建设带来的新挑战和新机遇,企业也在积极对自身的内部管理进行改革和转变,更好的适应市场的变化。
An enterprise’s development depends heavily on its talent pool. During this process of change, companies need to work out new human resources management scheme in order to respond to the enterprise’s new business development strategy. Britain, as one of the most developed countries in the world, possesses and implements an advanced human resource management philosophy that makes a great contribution to enhancing the nation’s economy. CBBC has closely followed the “Belt and Road” Strategy and published three serial editions of “Belt and Road” Initiatives analysis reports in the past three years. Lord Sassoon, the Chairman of CBBC, presented the first edition of the report to President Xi during his first official visit to Britain in 2015.
企业发展离不开优秀的人才。在调整转变时,企业需要对人力资源管理制定新的计划,激励员工参加培训和响应企业的新市场拓展战略。英国作为当今世界最发达国家之一,其先进的人力资源管理方法和管理理念对于促进英国经济的繁荣有着不可磨灭的贡献。而英中贸易协会也一直紧跟中国“一带一路”高端战略,在过去三年连续印发了三版不同主题的“一带一路”战略分析报告,英中贸易协会主席詹诚信勋爵也在习近平主席2015年秋访英期间亲赠习主席第一版报告。
