As the race for the Vice President of Uganda Human Resource Managers Association (HRMAU) 2022-2024 reaches the climax, Shamim Walusimbi one of the aspiring candidates for the post has pledged to take the human resource practice to greater heights once elected to the top office.
She has promised to effectively monitor the human resource practice impacts through multisectoral analysis to ensure the transformation of the practice in Uganda.
“Mentoring the impact of HR best practices on the public through effective systems, processes and metrics is the best chance we have at effectively contributing to this goal. We need a multi-sectoral analysis of the underlying issues, to enable us to move forward. This is my mission, which, with your help, I will customize to my niche-HR best practice” she said
Shamim in her remarks says that she pledges to combat any kind of discrimination, and exclusion in order to reduce inequalities that undermine the potential of the individual in the practice.
“My pledge to leave no one behind is deeply embedded in the heart of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. It's the Principal 2 that is aimed at combating any form of discrimination, exclusion and reducing inequalities as well as vulnerabilities that leave people behind and undermine the potential of individuals and humanity as a whole” she said
HRMAU is a professional membership body that brings together over 800 Human Resources Practitioners, academia, Community-based Human Resources, Development Partners, Private, Public, and Non-Governmental Human Resource Professionals.
In the 2019 HRMAU annual report, HRMAU reported significant improvements in its financial performance, member mobilization, branding and visibility, partnerships, technology and digitization, milestones in the drive to institutionalize the profession through the HR Bill, and enhancement of members’ capabilities.
