A special point of pride for Eastern University was the presence and leadership of the Vice President of FBHRO, who is also the Vice Chancellor of Eastern University. His concurrent leadership positions reflect Eastern University’s strong institutional linkage with national HR leadership and its commitment to advancing professional HR practices in Bangladesh.
The opening keynote address was delivered by Johnny C. Taylor Jr., President and CEO of SHRM (USA), while the keynote paper was presented by Dr. Musharrof Hossain, President of FBHRO. The closing keynote was delivered by Ed Hansen, Founder and CEO of Executive Leadership Systems (USA). Several national and international speakers shared insights through keynote sessions and panel discussions on AI-driven HR transformation, leadership development, workforce agility, and innovation.
From Eastern University, a group of MBA and EMBA students actively participated in the convention along with faculty members and university officials. The delegation attended keynote sessions, panel discussions, and networking segments, gaining valuable exposure to contemporary HR practices, global perspectives, and industry expectations. Eastern University’s participation in this prestigious national platform reinforces its commitment to bridging academia and industry, strengthening experiential learning for students, and contributing to the advancement of HR knowledge and practice in Bangladesh.
