50th PMAP Annual Conference: Global Opportunities. Leaping Forward. Defying Limits.

Tweet

The global economic landscape is seeing a new dawn, with Asia as its center and the Philippines, its sweet spot. The turnaround could not have come at a more opportune time.

A young Filipino workforce is raring to go and governance is breaking through a renaissance of accountability and transparency. The message is unequivocal: We are open for business! It’s all systems go.

This year, the People Management Association of the Philippines (PMAP) will hold its Annual Conference that recognizes a challenge: the country is at the center of Global Opportunities. But more than recognizing that reality, we see it as our mandate. There’s no other way but to seize these possibilities. We are now at the brink of living our dreams and imaginings. There are no excuses. This time, we have to make it work!

The horizon has opened up and all eyes are on the Philippines as the world’s new economic tiger. The ball’s on our court and the challenge is to leap forward. We can no longer afford to move at our current pace. Catch-up, leapfrog… that is what we should do. But to realize this, we need to defy limits, break free from our self-imposed restrictions that used to define who we are and what we can do.

that everything is in full gear at the launch of the country’s biggest HR event.

As we usher in this golden year of the PMAP Annual Conference, the organization take stock of the rich mine of ideas in our sharing and learning community. Fifty years of thought leadership, advocacy and camaraderie. A story that in this milestone year turns into our quest for GOLD.

“We EXPLORE the terrain as we paint the global economic landscape, create strategies, and search for talent. We MINE our collective experience as we extract issues, build consensus, and crystallize our advocacies. We REFINE our practice as we re-examine functional HR competencies. We SMELT the ore of our skills as we deep-dive into focused workshops to forge proficiency, mastery, and leadership. And we SHOWCASE best practices in HR and people management as we celebrate models and successes,” PMAP Vice President and Conference Chair Roberto Policarpio said during the launch.

The 50th PMAP Annual Conference will be happening at the Philippine International Convention Center from September 25-27 with the theme, ”Global Opportunities. Leaping Forward. Defying Limits.

Guests can also admire a bird’s-eye perspective of the grounds on an exhilarating zip-line ride or simply coast on a relaxing bike ride around the area. 

Participants can also join a friendly game of Futkal or “Futbol sa Kalye” (Street Football) or learn something fun and new through the kite-making activity. The gang can then immortalize the experience by getting their group picture taken on a free photo booth with a bonus Banana Boat sunscreen lotion for every picture taken.

By enlisting a dermatologist to hold a talk, the brand offers parents the knowhow on keeping their family’s skin healthy whole year round. This presents a fun and friendly way of knowing more about the dos and don’ts of skincare for the benefit of the entire family. 

There are plenty of things to do within the 26-hectare expanse of the QMC and the only thing that can get in the way of enjoying every inch of it is the intense heat of the sun.

Jason Mraz will perform at the Araneta Coliseum on May 14

Tweet

MMI and Ovation Productions are proud to announce a special performance by Grammy award winning artist, Jason Mraz on Tuesday, May 14th at the Araneta Coliseum.

Jason’s latest album “Love Is A Four Letter Word” is still a current iTunes top seller for Philippines since its release April of last year. 

“I Won’t Give Up”, the single from the same album is sharing the limelight as an iTunes Singles Top seller. It continues to hold its place as a YouTube top view in the Philippines, both for the actual music video and lyric video. “I Won’t Give Up” enjoys consistent airplay in local pop radio stations and has hit the #1 spot in RX93.1. 

Jason has taken his musical journey from coffee houses to stadiums globally and now has two Grammy Awards and six Grammy nominations to his credit. Mraz's latest album, "Love is a Four Letter Word," debuted in the Top 15 in 13 countries including #2 in the United States with the first single, "I Won't Give Up" debuting in the #1 slot on Billboard's "Digital Songs" chart one week after its release. "Love is a Four Letter Word" has already sold 9 million singles and over 1 million albums. "I Won't Give Up" has been certified triple platinum in the United States and Mraz' previous album, "WE SING. WE DANCE. WE STEAL THINGS." proved a global blockbuster, earning multiple platinum certifications in numerous territories around the globe. One of the album's hit songs, "I'm Yours" was a momentous #1 smash in many formats around the world, earning ASCAP's 2010 "Song of the Year" award while also setting the record for the longest-running song in the 51-year history of Billboard's "Hot 100." 

In addition, Mraz has been feted with a number of other honors, including the Songwriters Hall of Fame's esteemed "Hal David Starlight Award," presented to gifted songwriters who are making a significant impact in the music industry via their original songs. In 2012, Mraz was asked to join former Vice President Al Gore for the Climate Reality fact finding expedition to Antarctica, and very recently, Mraz was voted the 2013 “Favorite Male Artist” at the 39th annual People’s Choice Awards, an award given strictly by fans. 

In 2011, he partnered with MTV Exit Philippines to bring awareness to human trafficking. He paid a visit to the Visayan Forum and met the founder, Ma. Cecilia Flores-Oebanda. Visayan Forum is a Philippine-based NGO established in 1991, known for its innovative work for the empowerment of vulnerable migrants, providing aid for victims of human trafficking, domestic servitude and other forms of exploitation. 

Mraz is an outspoken advocate for a clean environment, sustainable energy, education and human equality, recently creating the Jason Mraz Foundation. Late last year Mraz headlined a historic live concert for over 70,000 people in Myanmar in conjunction with MTV EXIT (End Exploitation and Trafficking), which was held at the Yangon People’s Square at the base of the magnificent 2600 year-old Shwedagon Pagoda. www.jasonmraz.com 

“My mission is simple: it’s to shine a light through music, which can easily be applied to why I sing these songs,” Mraz says. “A little bit of love goes a long way, especially on a planet crowded with individuals struggling with seven billion different versions of human triumph and human suffering. When I remember to simply enjoy being where I am, it makes a world of difference.” 

Jason’s opening act, Zendee, bursted into the international scene through her viral YouTube video- “Random Girl Singing In A Mall”. Her amazing vocal prowess landed her the chance to perform to a global audience through guesting on the Ellen DeGeneres show. Random girl no more, Zendee is set to release her debut album under Warner Music Philippines. On December 12, 2012 she released her first ever single "Runaway" under Warner Music Philippines. The song was a natural choice for both Zendee and Warner Music, as it showcases Zendee’s powerful and soulful voice while showing some vocal gymnastics with a refreshing twist. You can download and preview Zendee’s Runaway single on iTunes and catch more of her on her official website.www.zendee.com.ph
