HR in the Forefront
In contrast to the traditional Human Resource processes of the past (essentially
paper-intensive, time consuming practices limited to recruitment and
salary management), things have taken a quantum leap towards
a more digitized and efficient process.
As a result, one can see HR itself leading the way towards an organization’s
digital transformation.

User friendly HR systems:
Mobile phones are believed to
be the biggest catalyst in digital
transformation as they can
mobilize processes, make them
simpler, more accessible,
sleeker and deliver a great user
experience that is fine-tuned for
user adoption.

Bridging the employee-manager gap:
With digitizing HR systems, one
of the best thing that has
happened is the narrowing of
the wide communication gap
between employees and
managers with tools like chat
bots.

Transforming L&D:
With AI and analytics in use,
HR and employees can now map
their career progression route
and upskill themselves in the
most demanding and fitting
skills to avoid the pink slip
nightmares.

Feedback and reviews:
Bringing the entire workforce on
a digital platform has eased the
process of performance reviews,
appraisals and feedback system
and has also made it more
transparent and unbiased.

Employee target/goal setting:
With digital solutions and
platforms, managers can now
openly and steadily share
S.M.A.R.T goals, distribute them
to employees, and enable
sharing them with co-workers.
