Episode 25 | HR Market Insights 2022
The Big Themes:
- Employee experience and Skills Academies: The concept of employee experience has been buzzy for many years, but the focus is shifting from perks to career advancement, reskilling, and equitable pay.
- Tech as an enabler for change, not a leader of change: Transforming businesses, business models, and employee experiences should be driven by process and change management, with tech playing a supporting role.
- Big fish want to swim in small HR ponds: Leading HR vendors like Oracle, Workday, and SAP are starting to evolve their offerings to appeal to mid-market customers, in addition to their traditional huge enterprise clients.
The Big Quote: “Customers were giving a lot of grace to vendors for getting through, making do, being really creative, helping them out of really challenging situations… That was 2021. The year of grace is over.”
