Vrunda Thakkar, Chief Of Staff at Augmont- Gold for All, and a sought-after speaker at prestigious institutions like IITs and IIMs, believes that the role of Human Resources (HR) has undergone a complete transformation.


In the dynamic times we are living in, gone are the days of HR being solely a hiring and administrative function. It has evolved into a data-driven, strategic approach, transforming HR into a key driver of business growth and a thriving work environment.

Employees are any organisation’s most valuable asset, which is why a rising number of companies are transitioning HR to Human Capital Management (HCM) to nurture talent and drive performance through strategic initiatives.

“HR has evolved into a strategic partner, demanding adaptability and proactive engagement, especially in today's dynamic landscape. Whether it’s interviewing a CEO late at night or ensuring every conversation aligns with business goals, flexibility is vital. HR is required to think strategically, anticipating needs and driving growth. In turn, businesses must value and invest in their human capital. This is the foundation for mutual success,” says Vrunda.

Vrunda believes the incorporation of technology and data analytics is one of the most significant changes in HR in recent years. These tools enable HR professionals to identify trends, predict future needs, and also help come up with tailored strategies to meet organisational goals. HR also leverages technology to make strategic hires that perfectly align with their vision.

Vrunda, with a career journey spanning international exposure to integrating AI for leadership decisions, emphasises accountability to ensure that every team member understands their individual and collective roles in achieving organisational objectives and making a real impact. She believes this not only empowers employees but also cultivates a culture of ownership and facilitates a dynamic and results-oriented approach.

At Augmont, Vrunda is working closely with the founders to help them scale this vision of scaling India’s largest gold ecosystem. Her strategic thinking and deep understanding of people make her an invaluable asset. Vrunda’s story offers valuable lessons for businesses and professionals seeking to thrive in today's dynamic environment.
