The HR-IT Imperative: What Every HR Professional Needs to Know About Using IT to Deliver HR Success



Many organizations today are trying to make more effective use of Information Technology (IT) in order to deliver on their mission, reduce costs, improve quality, and save time.  Internal HR systems (like HRIS, employee performance management systems, recruitment management systems, etc.) as well as other types of enterprise IT systems all have the potential to provide major leaps forward.  Unfortunately, many organizations spend countless hours and dollars building IT systems, yet they never achieve the expected results once the systems are live. 

 

This presentation introduces HR professionals to the tools and understanding they need in order to drive effective user adoption of IT systems.  It provides a context for differentiating technology, process, and “people” issues and it provides a framework for how HR professionals can take action to ensure IT success.  This presentation is a must for any professional involved in implementing technology in their organization
