Kalibrr celebrates successful launch of Kalibrr Communities

The Mezzanine Hall at the Kickstart Office was packed with young professionals and a few graduating students from different schools and industries; eagerly waiting to commence Kalibrr’s first ever Kalibrr Communities, and listen to the roster of expert speakers’ talk about career development and recruitment.

Kalibrr Communities is a monthly gathering of professionals who are interested to further learn about how to develop their careers and everything HR and recruitment, specifically growth strategies, industry trends, and networking with like-minded individuals.  “Kalibrr Communities is more than just a gathering of people, it is a space where everyone can share a common goal, a sense of belonging,” says Julius Paras, Kalibrr Vice President for Customer Engagement.

To celebrate International Women’s Month, Kalibrr couldn’t have chosen a more appropriate theme for their launch event last March 21, 2018: #GirlBoss: Power women leading in 21st century Manila. They invited top women leaders today as guest speakers for the event namely Ms. Minette Navarette, Vice-Chairman, and President of Kickstart Ventures, Inc., Ms. Nina Ylagan-Pedro, Vice President for the Aboitiz Human Resources Group, and Ms. Niña Terol, co-founder and Chief Fireball of Kick Fire Kitchen.

Nina Pedro talked about Leadership Insights of HR and the corporate path she went through to get to where she is now. “Learn as much as you can at where you are now. The brighter you are, the more you have to learn,” says Nina. Minette Navarette talked about Learning to Lead in a Changing World. She shared how she went from working in the consumer goods industry to shifting to digital ventures and how she consistently improved herself in the process. “Kalibrr Communities is a really great concept. I’m glad I was able to attend and get to meet people from different industries. I’ll definitely tell my students to attend the next one,” mentions Nikko Magalona from Freelancer.com.
