Press Release – isolved Champions Customer Experience with New People Heroes Tour & Masterclass Educational Series with Top Thought Leaders in HR, Benefits, Business & Payroll

Posted on by

The top expectation that human resource (HR) leaders have for their human capital management (HCM) software is that the technology is an end-to-end platform yet user adoption is dismal across most vendors in the space. In Sapient Insights Group’s 26th Annual HR Systems Survey research, isolved has more than triple the average adoption and education and events are a big reason why isolved customers are actively using People Cloud to its fullest ability more than every other vendor. To help businesses and leaders maximize their isolved investment and navigate the complicated HR, benefits and payroll landscape, isolved announced its 2024 People Heroes Tour agenda and locations – the next era of its highly successful 2022 and 2023 customer roadshow series. The People Heroes Tour will […]

isolved blog – Contemplating the Surprisingly Near-Future of AI in Payroll

Posted on by

At some point in an organization’s approach to human capital management (HCM), HR’s relationship to HCM changes. There is growth, and with that growth comes an eventual pivot. As HCM becomes streamlined, more automated, HR shifts away from survival mode—fixing problems, babysitting operational processes and just generally making sure nothing goes wrong—and turns its attention to building better HCM: “thrival” mode. Put differently, HR moves from making sure nothing goes wrong, which could hurt the employee experience (EX), to adding to the EX to make it ever better. It is a fundamental, profound change in focus, and artificial intelligence (AI)and other innovations in HCM can be of great help to HR departments as they conquer the details once and for all and train their eyes […]

Case Study: Rutherford Investment Company Partners with isolved to Evolve from Operational to Strategic HR

Posted on by

What You Need to Know We often discuss digitization as a way to facilitate operational HR—the nitty gritty fundamentals, the necessities, the boxes that need to be checked. The assumption inherent in these conversations is that greasing the path for these compliance-oriented tasks will free up time for strategic HR, reducing administrative tedium in favor of higher-level, people-oriented efforts. This journey to HCM maturity is a long series of steps, each at once meaningful and small. It is a path to success we’ve seen unfold time and time again with users of isolved. Put these small steps aside, however. Consider also that it’s so often the small things that define the employee experience, always a priority no matter where an organization is in its HCM […]

We hear about so-called “accidental HR people,” the leaders at small businesses who take on the heavy lifting of operational HR because there’s no automation or person in place to do it. But what if SMB leaders could in fact be not-so-accidental HR people because their HR technology really empowered them? In this video, Brent Skinner, co-founder of 3Sixty Insights, where he leads the HCM practice, recounts his conversation with Zubin Kapadia, owner and CEO of Right at Home North Shore LI. Zubin says isolved People Cloud™ not only spared him team the tedium of unautomated operational HR, but also empowered his focus as a hands-on people leader, “the single most important thing I do every day,” Zubin says.

We talk a lot about the technology for human capital management. Amidst all the understandable hubbub, you’d think we’d find a panacea in the state of the art in technology for HCM. Today’s technology for HCM is indeed a marvel, after all, in its capabilities and in the promise it holds. It’s a promise not only for highly engaged people leaders looking to use the latest and greatest cloud software, but also for HR departments that could really just use some help in solving for basic needs. The idea that HR departments today can succeed with the help of highly capable technology alone is tempting to believe. In a way, that’s because it’s half true. Yes, it’s a welcome relief to automate operational processes. Yes, […]

What You Need to Know Human capital management (HCM) practices come in all sizes, just like the companies they serve. Investigating the differences — and whether there is a one-size-fits-all solution — is a theme of our 2023 research at 3Sixty Insights. One thing has been clear from the start: HCM maturity, which does not necessarily correlate to the size of an employer, plays a significant role in an HR organization’s character. HCM starts with the fundamentals, checking the boxes that need to be checked. At a new business, this almost always plays out in by-the-seat-of-the-pants efforts to stay on top of what 3Sixty Insights calls “concrete HR:” the tactical, organizational necessities. More often than not, the result is team members take on HR responsibilities […]

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 […]

There are several versions of the well-known HCM Maturity Model, a framework for understanding and pinpointing where HR departments are in their evolution and where they can eventually be, from purely operational to strategic. A helpful whitepaper walks readers through an easily accessible explanation of The Five Phases of HCM Maturity according to isolved—in order: Basic, Integrated, Automated, Developed, and Engaged. In commencing their journey through the phases of the HCM Maturity Model, HR departments first strive to become tight in workflow, introducing efficiency to the absolute essentials for employing people. When they ultimately become fully mature, they are proficient and effective in influencing the employee experience and employer brand. A lot happens in between. Meanwhile, so-called thought leaders in human capital management (HCM) like […]

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 […]

Research Note: How Small and Medium-Sized Companies Can be Empowered to Excel at Human Capital Management

Posted on by

What You Need to Know Small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) tend to have different needs and requirements than large businesses — as well as different challenges. With typically under 1,000 employees and sometimes no more than a few dozen, constraints on both staff time and budgets in smaller organizations can create barriers to competing against larger enterprises for acquiring and retaining top talent. To help SMBs compete for the best, their system for human capital management (HCM) must harness the ability to deliver efficiencies, provide data-driven results and equip the teams using them to create the best possible employee experience. In this vein, 3Sixty Insights has examined delivering solutions for some of the biggest challenges that HR people face today and expect in the future. […]

Research Agenda: The 3Sixty Insights Human Capital Management Themes for 2023

Posted on by

Every domain of human capital management (HCM), it seems, has been tinged by fresh attitudes and new charters. As we enter a post-pandemic kind of HCM, we see employers big and small pursuing global employee mobility and chasing an ever better, ever expanding experience for their employees. Entire market niches have seen the demand for them continue to grow rapidly. An apt example, the employer of record (EOR) business model facilitates global employee mobility and can be tantamount to protecting the employee experience as organizations quickly expand globally. Meanwhile, HR’s seat at the table of organizational leadership seems finally within reach as the state of the art of technology for HCM equips HR practitioners (and line managers) with the tools and data they need to […]
