Heading HR function at Trinity
Managing NIIT as its Centre Head involved a cross functional role which was as much marketing as HR oriented. Achieving note worthy student registration figures was a regular practice of NIIT Palghat Centre. The Centre also stood out as a good students? service Centre with good performance records of its students as well as high feedback of faculty members by students. The Placements from the Centre have been excellent throughout. The Centre was rated among the top 5 centres in the country and had the 2nd best rating by students in the All India Survey conducted by Gallup. The prestigious awards of Privileged Business Partner of NIIT as well as the Mirror Image Business Partner have both been conferred on the franchise directors.
Trinity Comnet is a company operating in the Telematics space. It employs BTechs, MCAs and other service professionals. Managing the HR function as a Director involves building a closely bound and performance oriented teams. My main thrust is on developing personnel who maintain high work integrity, work under freedom than under control and are self driven. The attrition rate is very low in the organization.
