| |September 20199ers make informed business decisions. In retail industries, this is a type of forecast that is essential when it comes to making decisions regarding the appointment of the right people during seasonal hiring.2. Cloud TechnologyCloud technology is the on-demand availability of com-puter system resources, especially data storage and com-puting power, without direct active management by the user. If an organization is planning to adopt digitization, cloud technology is a must. It makes data storage much more affordable, practical, and hassle-free. 3. Mobility in WorkplaceWorkplace mobility might just be the biggest revolutions that impact the workforce development of businesses of all sizes, in a positive way. Although it highly depends on the economic standing the company, mobility enables em-ployees to work in a way that goes well with their lifestyle and saves more time. Employees can work in a way that is more effective and efficient. 4. Production Studio TechnologyProduction Studio Technology enables employees to pack-age and deliver content such as sales collateral or internal presentations in new and innovative ways, with tools such as videos, podcasts, infographics and nextgen presentation software. This empowers employees to be more creative in their efforts to lead, sell and influence by breaking out of the PowerPoint jail. Introducing this type of technology can also result in achieving changes of behavior amongst the employees as it would make the work process more interesting and eliminate mundane monotony. 5. Virtual Personal Assistants (VPAs)VPAs will gradually and affirmatively become more com-mon as technology improves, and employees grow more comfortable with them outside of work. At the moment, assistants such as Cortana, Siri, Google Now and Echo are being used mostly for data retrieval and basic tasks, but within a couple years VPAs will proactively initiate and conclude complex business processes on the behalf of the employee with negligible oversight required. This will result in a great deal of time saving and cost cutting with minimal efforts.Global renewable energy employment reached 10.3 million jobs in the recent time, an increase of 5.3% com-pared with the number reported in the previous years. An increasing number of countries derive socio-economic benefits from renewable energy, but employment remains highly concentrated in a handful of countries, with Chi-na, Brazil, United States, India, Germany and Japan in the lead.It has been proved that all the forms of renewable en-ergy are healthier for the environment and for people, so we can assume that the environment in which they work to manufacture the clean technology is also healthier for the workers. Studies have shown that employees involved in the solar industry have healthier workplaces simply be-cause they are not exposed to the toxic compounds that coal mines or gas plants release on a daily basis (not to mention the workers in the nuclear energy sector).China alone accounts for 43% of all renewable energy jobs. Its share is particularly high in solar heating and cool-ing (83%) and in the solar power sector (66%). While ex-pansion took place in China and India, the United States, Japan and the European Union lost jobs. A key feature of the solar power landscape is that jobs remain highly con-centrated in a small number of countries. This can be at-tributed to the fact that the bulk of manufacturing takes place in relatively few countries and domestic markets vary enormously in size. For India, where annual Solar Power plant installations have fluctuated in recent years, the employment-factor calculation suggests that the coun-try may have seen an impactful growth in the renewable energy sector. Workplaces are changing rapidly. Due to this dynamic nature, the experts are driven to develop innovative ways to educate and prepare the populous to meet the demands of an increasingly global economy. A large portion of the population remains yet unemployed, while the gap between the technical skills acquired by the workers and those needed by the industries continues to grow. However, engagement is also a hurdle that many man-agers have yet to figure out and/or address. It is impacted by the tools the employees are using(mobility), how they are trained, whether they feel acknowledged, and most importantly, are they content with the current position they hold. Thus, it is safe to state that workforce development is an affair of priority for the government and the society as a whole. Thus, something carrying such emphasis should be advisably tackled with the best tools, i.e., modern technol-ogy and equipment to enable the organizations to achieve their goals with ease. Every employee in Tata Power Renewables is feeling a sense of optimism at the opportunities that have now be-come available to us. The quality of the work we do today will be our legacy to the nation and epitomize the values of Tata Group.
