eightfold Blog: Survey Says…HR and Business Goals Are Frequently Out of Sync

Posted on by

When HR works as a proactive consultant, businesses are better positioned to accomplish their strategic objectives. And yet, a recent survey found that there’s often a disconnect between HR and strategy, leading to misunderstandings throughout organizations.

When HR and business strategy work in sync, organizations can drive key initiatives, attract top talent, and secure long-term success. Yet, a global disconnect between the two often leads to misalignment and employee misunderstandings, hindering progress. That’s the finding of our Annual Eightfold Talent survey conducted with 3Sixty Insights on HR and talent strategy, which polled 1,700 people across the globe.

theHRDIRECTOR – Overworked Americans

Posted on by

Over the past few months, as part of Dylan’s research with 3Sixty Insights, he has delved deeper into the labor statistics of overwork, burnout culture, and time away from work. These fall under the broader category of work-life balance and help form a more pressing data-driven picture of employee well-being and experience. In his previous piece, ‘The Productivity Dilemma,’ he outlined how American workers are typically more productive annually than their European colleagues but are so at the cost of their overall well-being. The caveat is that American workers trail behind nations like Luxembourg, Ireland, and Norway in hourly labor productivity. In 2023, Luxembourg and Ireland worked twice the GDP per hour ($146 and $143, respectively) compared to the US ($70), which ranked between Guyana and Finland. An […]

HR Executive Article: ‘AI Is a Talent Magnet’ – How to Leverage Its Power in 2025

Posted on by

If it hasn’t happened already, McKinsey research shows that by the end of 2025, HR leaders will likely be at the center of an organizational alignment effort around enterprise technology. According to a 2024 report from the firm, many companies are expanding AI use across their operations. Half the respondents say their organizations use AI in two or more business functions, with HR surfacing in the top 10. As different departments begin to apply AI use cases, how will company and HR leaders ensure that everyone is on the same page about the core values of using the new tech? There’s a gap in organizational alignment on AI In another international report, 3Sixty Insights and Eightfold AI surveyed 500 HR leaders and 1,200 employees across six countries to […]

worklife Article: The High Cost of Silos – Trillions Lost When HR, Company Goals Are Out of Sync

Posted on by

It’s become a cliché of business: working in silos is almost always a terrible idea. With that in mind, fresh research reveals a stark reality for HR leaders in particular, as more than 8 in 10 companies report critical misalignment between their department’s initiatives and those of the broader business, contributing to an estimated $8.9 trillion in annual economic losses. It is a disconnect that’s about much more than just organizational efficiency. Rather, it can have a profound, direct impact on employee satisfaction and retention and, in fact, contributes to more than 80% of workers actively seeking out other jobs. The findings — from a survey of 500 HR leaders and 1,200 employees by the talent intelligence platform Eightfold AI, in association with 3Sixty Insights — point […]
