Our Talents

I was at the University of Moratuwa in this evening to participate the Presidents Installation Ceremony of the Gavel ( Toastmasters) Club. I was amazed to see the enthusiasm and the professionalism they have shown. The speeches were superb and fantastic and no doubt they are as good as many trained professional speakers.

Also they have not limited themselves for their technical studies. Most have completed CIMA and some are in the managerial level. Many have represented Sri Lanka either in sports, robotics and more importantly engineering students representing Sri Lanka for CIMA and CFA competitions.

All of them are great assets to any organisation in Sri Lanka.

Sadly the HR Practices of the corporate world in Sri Lanka is not geared to tap this talent pool. As a result we will loose most of them to Australia and UK.

It is pathetic but I do not have an answer.
