Evolutions Have Heroes, and HR Evolutions Have People Heroes

In mid-spring, we were fortunate and grateful to film an “in-concert” episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast straight from the floor of the Boston stop along the 2023 #isolvedRoadShow. Our guest was one of my very favorite people in human capital management, Geoff Webb, vice president of solution strategy at isolved. It was an interesting conversation. Even more interesting was the impromptu green room time Geoff and I created for ourselves over coffee earlier that day. It was that conversation, especially, that got us to thinking some pretty deep thoughts. Geoff and I went deep into the paint, as basketball fans might say. And for what you’re about to read, the promised follow-up blog post to convey some of those ideas, we won’t get too […]

Case Study Vignette: isolved Spares Hands-On, Strategic People Leader and Owner of Right at Home North Shore LI the Hassles of Unautomated HR

Any business can benefit from gaining greater visibility into its people. Even basic information, such as their total numbers, whereabouts, hours worked, legal qualifications to do this work or that, and more, can be gold for not only the HR department, but also organizational leadership. This is as true for small businesses as for multinational corporations employing thousands. It would seem, from the outside looking in, that these stats should be a cinch to obtain for small employers. But ask HR people working at the thousands of small businesses in North America. They would probably tell you much of this information is hard to pin down. Especially when it comes to up-to-date data, the only kind that really makes a difference, it’s elusive and no […]

The Boston #isolvedRoadShow Episode of #HRTechChat with Guest Geoff Webb

Last week, just before the morning’s program commenced at the Boston stop along the 2023 #isolvedRoadShow, this episode’s #HRTechChat video podcast guest Geoff Webb and I met for some impromptu “green room” time and joked that it was too bad the camera wasn’t rolling. Never fear, however: I plan to build on that very interesting discussion soon with a dedicated blog entry…. Following the conclusion of last Thursday’s itinerary at the Courtyard by Marriot, Geoff and I sat down for this episode of the podcast — recorded “in concert, so to speak,” from the Road Show floor. And this may be the right time to explain just what the 2023 isolved Road Show is, because it relates directly to the conversation captured here. A multiple-city […]

#HRTechChat: Purbita Banerjee, Senior Client Partner and Head of Product Management at Korn Ferry

#HRTechChat: Purbita Banerjee, Senior Client Partner and Head of Product Management at Korn Ferry

My guest for this episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast was Purbita Banerjee. “We’re here to create pathways to success for humans at work,” says Purbita of the mission at Korn Ferry, where she is senior client partner and head of product management. Artificial intelligence figures prominently in this new calculus, as we’ve covered previously, and the topic for this honest-to-goodness barnburner of a discussion with Purbita centered on how the state of the art in business software is upending long-held conventions in talent management and talent acquisition. All this innovation is all but obliterating the arbitrary partition that has for decades separated these two prominent domains of human capital management. When it comes to the podcast here, I highly recommend you press play on […]

#HRTechChat: Mike Ettling, Chief Executive Officer at Unit4

#HRTechChat: Mike Ettling, Chief Executive Officer at Unit4

I’m going to date myself here. My first encounter with Mike Ettling, CEO of Unit4, was over 10 years ago. Technology editor for HRO Today at the time, I was relatively wet behind the ears, as the saying goes, when it comes to human capital management and the technology for it. I attended a briefing for analysts and the industry press with Mike, CEO at the time of what was then NorthgateArinso. The gathering was in real life, a.k.a. IRL (a term that had not even emerged yet). “Well, Brent, that goes back some time,” Mike said when I brought it up to open the discussion on this episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast. Much has happened since 2011. NGA became NGA Human Resources and, […]
