The Annual Go-To Event for HR Professionals and Leaders, The Institute of People

Management Convention and Exhibition, takes place 1-4 November 2015, Sun City,

North West Province, South Africa

The IPM Annual Conference and Exhibition takes place this year at Sun City from 1-4

November. The event has been running since 1956 and has consistently attracted over 500

delegates. In 2008, just preceding the world economic crisis, attendance figures boomed at

1100, including exhibitors and speakers. In 2009, despite tough trading conditions and general

trend for events of this size to be cancelled, IPM still managed to run a successful event. In

2014, numbers sat at a steady 900, a sign that our Convention is offering value to those who

are present.

Human Resources Professionals, business leaders, suppliers and key influencers come

together from private and public sectors to explore topical issues and to seek solutions to

business challenges. The event offers unrivalled networking opportunities as delegates,

exhibitors, speakers and sponsors engage during both the formal and the social programme in

the beautiful surrounds of the North West Province, at the largest conferencing venue in South

Africa, Sun City.

This year, IPM celebrates its 70th Anniversary, and the event is being designed to celebrate

achievements and to exceed expectations. The formal, informal and social programmes are

being revamped, with more sessions and a diversity of options to choose from. We will isolate

key trends that will shape our future, understand very clearly where HR will deliver value, and

provide a thinking and testing ground to explore what that looks like in practice.

The focus of the Convention is:

“HR DELIVERING INNOVATION AND EXCELLENCE: THE NEXT 70 YEARS OF THOUGHT

LEADERSHIP” Driving HR’s impact into the Future

The sub-themes, which will guide all of the Convention sessions, are:

Emerging Trends impacting the organizational landscape

The Implication for Business and HR’s value proposition

Good Practice HR




The IPM has and continues to play a key role in professionalizing and credentialing HR within

South Africa and on the wider continent. The Convention and Exhibition provides a unique

opportunity to up your game in the People Management and Development space. The

Convention and its sessions clarify that HR must be able to lead the business through its

knowledge and expertise. The Convention assists practitioners to assess the value they deliver

and inspires them improve the way the lead business to success.
