“I wish we could just push a button and have payroll process without a hitch, like everyone thinks we do,” joked Robyn Torgius, guest on this episode of #HRTechChat. Instead of just falling into the work, as most have in the past, people are increasingly choosing payroll as a career path. This is a good thing. As global head of payroll at IFS and member of 3Sixty Insights’ Global Executive Advisory Council, Robyn shared her considerable insight into how payroll can be elevated into a profession — and why it should be.

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 […]

My guest for this episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast was Brandon Dorr, director of people technologies at WPS Health Solutions. The path Brandon took landing him in HR is interesting. He’s an IT person and never expected that this background would steer him into a career intersecting with human capital management (HCM). He started at WPS as a service delivery specialist, a very IT kind of role. “So I came in to help with technical project management,” he said, “representing just that additional level of technical expertise that our project managers didn’t necessarily have at that time.” Eventually, the company’s HR department expressed a need for help with its data and asked Brandon to consult. One thing led to another, as the saying goes, […]

Anita Lettink was the guest for this episode of #HRTechChat. Many viewers of this video podcast may know Anita from her nearly 20 years in positions of increasing seniority at NGA Human Resources (acquired in 2019 by Alight). Following nearly three years as a senior vice president there, she finally left NGAHR in mid-2020 to found HR Tech Radar and write and publish her book, “How to Select Your Next Payroll: The Ultimate Guide.” Anita is a payroll expert by any calculus, and it was a real pleasure to reconnect and discuss the subject matter of her book in detail. Having fallen out of touch in recent years, Anita and I actually go way back, originally meeting when she was about midway through her tour […]
Continue readingAnalyzing M&A: OneSource Virtual’s Workday Deployment Business Acquired by Cognizant
For as many as 1,300 OneSource Virtual (OSV) customers, the announcement that Cognizant will buy its Workday professional services and consulting business is easily missed. Timing-wise, the acquisition was announced immediately following OSV quarter-end sales (Halloween) and just before politically charged mid-term elections. Moreover, Cognizant is still not a widely recognized brand in HR circles or within the Workday ecosystem despite its 2020 acquisition of long-standing Workday partner, Collaborative Solutions. What just happened? Press releases tell us that Cognizant has entered an agreement to acquire the professional services and application management practices of OneSource Virtual. In layperson’s terms, this is the technical deployment business that requires certified Workday professionals to configure and integrate Workday customers to go-live. It also includes the application management solutions (AMS) […]
Continue readingEnterprise Risk’s Race to the Bottom: Sexy SAIDI
Cue this one up for today’s soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSk5U4oHhu0 Today I learned the statistical acronym SAIDI: System Average Interruption Duration Index. It’s the internationally recognized formula for calculating the average outage duration for each customer served by a utility, and it’s calculated by the expression: For those of you still PTSD’d from high school algebra and things containing letters from the Greek alphabet, in other words, it’s the sum of all the customer interruption durations divided by the total number of customers. Why should anyone care, do you ask? Following up on our recent examination of supply chain risk under-mitigation, have you or anyone else in your company investigated the impact to your business if, suddenly, employees’ mobile phones stopped working for any extended length of […]
