Posted on May 4, 2026May 4, 2026 by 3Sixty Insights Editorial Team

Leadership training is one of the most common investments organizations make, but it is also one of the easiest to get wrong. Many companies track attendance, but few measure whether managers actually lead differently afterward. In this episode of HR Superstars, Karina Young sits down with 3Sixty Insights’ Nicole Roberts, to discuss how to design leadership development that managers actually use in their day-to-day work. They explore how HR leaders can identify the right problems before launching training, measure leadership effectiveness in real time, and help managers apply new skills immediately. Nicole also shares practical ways to strengthen leadership development, even with limited resources. Listen to the full podcast here: How to Create Manager Programs That Stick with Nicole Roberts

Nicole Roberts Contributes Analyst Perspective to HR Voices 2026 Compliance Report

Posted on February 18, 2026February 18, 2026 by 3Sixty Insights Editorial Team

As HR compliance grows more complex in 2026, Nicole Roberts, Principal HR Industry Analyst at 3Sixty Insights, emphasizes a critical reality: compliance technology is only as effective as the expertise guiding it. In the HR Voices: 2026 Regulatory Transformations and Disruptions in HR Compliance report, developed with OutSolve, Nicole highlights the widening gap between tool adoption and practitioner judgment. As organizations deploy more automation across HR and compliance workflows, validating outputs with experienced human oversight becomes essential. Nicole’s contribution centers on the operational risks emerging from overreliance on systems alone. “Tools can’t replace expertise,” she explains, noting that compliance teams must still interpret signals, validate decisions, and understand regulatory nuance beyond what dashboards and alerts can provide. This perspective reflects what many HR leaders are […]

Recent Research: Market Alert: Four Months In – What’s Really Taking Shape at Clari and Salesloft Four months after announcing their merger, Clari and Salesloft are signaling a disciplined, customer-first approach that prioritizes long-term value over rapid consolidation. Rather than forcing a unified interface or accelerated rebranding, the combined organization is focusing on unifying data and intelligence across platforms while respecting distinct revenue personas and workflows. This data-first, human-in-the-loop AI strategy positions agents and shared intelligence as the connective tissue across the revenue lifecycle, with enterprise governance and adoption at the core.

eightfold.ai Article: Why Only 1 in 5 HR Leaders Has a Say in Their Company’s AI Strategy

Posted on October 22, 2025October 22, 2025 by 3Sixty Insights Editorial Team

HR’s role is shifting from improving talent acquisition and management processes, to helping lead organizational transformation. AI is reshaping HR’s function, but limited budgets make agility and strategic alignment essential for successful adoption of new technologies and practices. To succeed, HR leaders must assess their organization’s readiness for change, surface hidden workforce capabilities, and guide adoption with confidence. If you’ve been in HR for a while, you probably remember the days when your entire system lived in a spreadsheet — and if you don’t, consider yourself lucky. Today, HR technology has advanced significantly, but with that progress comes complexity. The average organization now manages 15 to 20 different HR tools and tech systems. With so many tools and limited budgets, you’re likely facing a critical […]

theHRDIRECTOR: Lessons from HR Tech 2025 – How vendors can stand out in a crowded market

Posted on October 14, 2025October 14, 2025 by 3Sixty Insights Editorial Team

Recently, I had the opportunity to attend HR Tech 2025 . After years of observing this industry as a customer and analyst, I came away both amazed and thoughtful about the state of HR technology and the way vendors communicate their innovations. The State of HR Technology Today The advancements in HR software over the past few years are nothing short of revolutionary. From AI-driven solutions to streamlined workforce management tools, the software on display at HR Tech 2025 has the potential to accelerate organizations’ capabilities by years—if deployed effectively.

theHRDIRECTOR: Is HR Tech in its “It’s Toasted” Era?

Posted on October 10, 2025October 10, 2025 by 3Sixty Insights Editorial Team

One thing’s for sure in HR tech: everything is agentic AI. Or better yet, just “agentic.” In the frigid back conference halls of the Mandalay Bay convention center, past the food court, and up the escalator banks, the word “agentic” bounced across the walls and danced through the air. It’s the hot new thing. Everyone’s talking about it. And maybe that’s the problem. Over the course of the two and a half days at the 3Sixty Insights table, I was briefed, debriefed, and briefed again with vendors from across the HR tech industry. I met and spoke with many witty, intelligent, and forward-thinking people, all telling – or being told to tell – the same story. As an analyst, the result was often walking away […]

theHRDIRECTOR: Key takeaways from this year’s HR technology conference

Posted on October 7, 2025October 10, 2025 by 3Sixty Insights Editorial Team

My heart is full and my battery is drained, but in the most beautiful way. Prior to HR Technology Conference, my experience with conferences was from the practioner’s and blogger perspective. I had the opportunity to attend HR Tech as a learner and an analyst in an industry where I’ve been a customer, a decision maker, and a functionality geek. I got to see some amazing people I had not seen in years or even had never met IRL. I’ve always loved learning, attending demos, and seeing how people are looking to solve their business challenges with people tech solutions. It was fun to have the experience of being in HR for 20+ years and now having a different conversation with vendors, finding out from […]
