The business world is constantly changing and HR executives have to change along with it to remain successful. While there have been issues with transitioning technology, tools like HCM Fusion reports are helping HR executives achieve many victories within their field.
Current Struggles
From a focus group of HCM customers, three major struggles rise to the top of many business leader’s lists. Two challenges are directly related to changes in the business world: staying abreast of technology innovations and dealing with an increase in gig and remote workers. Many express worry over keeping up with the technology needed to support an expanding staff in a changing workplace. HCM Cloud makes it easier for businesses to adopt new functionalities and features.
The third challenge that came up was a lack of employee engagement. Customers often cite frustration from employees because of issues like ignored surveys. There has been a lot of success in engaging employees with a top-down approach. Establishing metrics and practices can help companies gain ground as well.
