Research Agenda: Workforce Management 2024

Posted on by

In today’s labor market, where workers hold significant bargaining power, employers are under pressure to provide a positive employee experience. Failure to do so could result in the loss of top talent. This challenge is particularly acute in industries with deskless workers, such as food & beverage, hospitality, service, specialized trades, and healthcare. These industries, which underpin our society, rely heavily on the consistent presence of these workers. In industries where part-time and hourly work is common, high turnover rates pose a significant challenge. Recognizing the need for employee retention from day one, workforce management (WFM) has become more crucial than ever. The question then becomes, how can these organizations effectively manage their frontline & deskless workforce while ensuring a positive employee and customer experience? […]

Guest Council Post: Decoding complexity and the pivotal role of Artificial Intelligence

Posted on by

Complexity has traditionally been viewed as a negative disruption and a dominant rationale for why organizations do not achieve their strategic results.  Simplification has been an overarching alternative theme and is often identified as the proposed solution for the organization but is this still the right choice given the advancements and potential as we engage with AI? According to Nelson Cowan, as humans we can only hold 3 to 5 items in our minds at once (1), so we naturally gravitate to simple concepts.  This may further explain why, according to BCG, 70% of all complex transformations fail or do not live up to expectations (2).  Are we over simplifying our solutions and are not addressing the complex problem in front of us?  Is there […]

Blog: Standardizing Recruitment and Bettering the Employee Experience for the Success of Your Business

Posted on by

Small and medium-sized businesses with multiple locations could benefit from a centrally organized and standardized recruitment system. We examine how a consistent set of best practices and approaches can lead to higher employee retention and a more resilient organization. Previously in this series, I discussed how more data in a data-driven world isn’t always better. You can accumulate too much data too fast and find yourself devoting more and more time to managing it. One way to manage this is by streamlining your HR organization into a single solution that houses all your data in one space. However, I also touched on how not investing in technology out of buyer anxiety and fears about upfront costs can lead to even more money lost in the […]

Vantage Circle Blog – What is Total Rewards Strategy? An HR’s Guide

Posted on by

What is a Total Rewards Strategy? A “Total Rewards Strategy” is a method used by businesses to create and implement a comprehensive compensation and benefits package for its employees. Instead of focusing solely on wages, a total rewards strategy considers the complete bundle of rewards that an employee receives, both tangible and intangible. “People want to know they matter and want to be treated as people. That’s the new talent contract.” – Pamela Stroko A well-crafted Total Rewards Strategy encompasses monetary rewards, such as salaries and bonuses, alongside vital non-monetary elements like recognition, work-life balance, and career development opportunities. By strategically integrating these elements, organizations can create a compelling value proposition for their employees. This approach not only attracts top talent but also helps improve […]

Anatomy of a Decision: Scheduling and Recruiting Excellence in Hospitality – Noticed by Customers Worldwide

Posted on by

What You Need to Know Every customer, small and large, wants to feel important. Whether genuinely understanding their priorities and overall operating context or having an input to the provider’s product roadmap, businesses steer clear of working with anyone they think won’t give them the attention they deserve when most needed. This is no exception in the HR technology domain. 3Sixty Insights sat down with three businesses in the UK hospitality industry that were disappointed with the functionality of their former solution provider’s employee experience system and felt their needs were sometimes being ignored. All sought a new HR Tech vendor partner that was also nimble enough for them to grow with. The three HR technology customers we spoke with all chose Harri as their […]

Serving Up Success in the Restaurant Industry

Posted on by

Companies love to work with technology providers that give them the attention they deserve. Within the past 12 months, 3Sixty Insights sat down with businesses in the quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry that were disappointed with their HR tech system’s functionality and felt that they were being undervalued and underserved by their provider.

As the quick-service restaurant industry grows, consumers demand quality food with best-in-class service delivered as speedily as possible and potentially right to their doorstep.

Council Guest Post: Physician Unboarding: Dropping the ball

Posted on by

In product management, I often receive feature request after feature request. Some requests are straightforward and I understand, and some I have to go back to the customer to for clarity. I’ll never forget receiving a request to “undo a hire” for an employee that already accepted a job. The problem, as described to me: employees are “no showing” on their first day of work, and the hiring company is forced to roll back the hire. I cringed when I heard this. I couldn’t wrap my head around it. As someone who has never found job hunting easy, I could not believe how common this is becoming in many industries. I would never do this, I thought to myself. I did more digging. What I […]

Analyst Insight: Talent Intelligence Fundamentally Shifts How Organizations Should Measure Success

Posted on by

As 2023 rang in, so did the hype over artificial intelligence, particularly with generative AI (such as ChatGPT). Seemingly overnight, the long-gathering buzz surrounding AI’s applicability not only to the world of work, but also to business and everything else, became nearly deafening. AI has become seemingly pertinent to just about everything — and it probably is. As more industries begin to realize the opportunities this rapidly developing technology presents to their operations and bottom lines, questions abound. Front-and-center among them is: where to start? In human capital management (HCM), the answer is, just about anywhere. We see vendors applying AI to their solutions for payroll, scheduling, employee self-service, performance management, benefits administration — the list goes on. Name a subdomain of HCM, and there’s […]
