Our Department has co-organized the 3rd International Human Resource Management (HRM) Conference on November 18-19, 2021 with Lisbon School of Economics and Management, University of Lisbon. With a thematic focus on Human Resource Management’s Contributions to Sustainability, the Conference took place under a hybrid format (online and onsite) and was well-attended by participants from Macau, Hong Kong, mainland China and Portugal.

After a welcome remark delivered by Professor Jean Chen, Dean of FBA, two keynote speakers, Professor Jie Wang from University of Nottingham, Ningbo, China and Professor Jian Liang from Tongji University, discussed sustainable HRM practices and the challenges for conducting employee voice research, respectively. In addition, two prominent local executives, Mr. Keith Lei from MGM Cotai and Miss Jacinta Ho from JC Human Resource Consulting, delivered a sharing on MGM’s sustainable HR practices and an exemplary case study of environmental stewardship strategy in one local firm.

As one of FBA’s events for celebrating UM’s 40th anniversary, the Conference also served as a platform for scholars, researchers, business practitioners and postgraduate students to disseminate their latest research findings and business insights related to sustainability and HRM.
