Sycamore Consult Limited has donated K1.5 million to the Institute of People Management in Malawi (IPMM) to go towards its upcoming annual conference.
Sycamore Chief Operating Officer Nelson Mkwende said the decision was made to help capacitate IPMM in its quest to develop human capital which resonates with the concept of mindset change embedded in the Malawi 2063 development agenda.
“We appreciate that human development and mindset change go a long way in achieving developmental goals in the Malawi 2063. We expect that the speakers and invited guests will share information that will add value to the members of the institute and the country,” Mkwende said.
IPMM Council Member Joyce Phiri thanked the company for the support, saying it would go a long way in ensuring a smooth conference.

“The theme of our conference is ‘Harnessing the Human Resource Capital’. We know there are a lot of things happening especially now in the digital era, and, therefore we want to dissect how the HR profession can remain relevant in such an environment,” Phiri said.
She added that while emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence threaten the industry, the innovation has to be managed by people.
