The workplace has been extremely sophisticated in terms of people management. The emerging trends in people management focus on mental well-being, Physical well-being and Professional wellbeing. Mental well-being involves having emotionally intelligent people in the organisation which in turn creates a conducive environment for innovation and creativity. Employees should be acquainted with emotional sensitivity, maturity and competency. It also deals with the issues of leadership, interpersonal relations, communication, public relations, trust and credibility. Work life balance helps employees to prioritise between career, ambition and their lifestyle. Work from home, fun at work place, stress management will be the game changers. There will be major changes in the professional well-being .The rise in communication technology means great access to talent pool across the globe. The influence of social technology will be on, the way people work, live and communicate. This makes our world more interconnected. The role of women will continue to increase at all levels of future workforce. Ramifications will be a part of the HR practices. Building of skillsets and maintaining a level of specialisation becomes critical. Employees will have greater control over the kind of work they do and how they are compensated. The contribution to the organisation will be considered for reward rather than the position or grade in the organisation. Thus HR Professionals need to redefine the practices to address emerging requirements of the workforce of the future.&lt;/p&gt;</p></p>
