Creating a Strategic HR Organization with a Digital Workforce
Human Resources organizations are at the nexus of business demands and the employee experience. HR is challenged to deliver on both fronts amid accelerating change with fewer resources.
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) combined with AI is designed to free HR professionals by handling manual, repetitive, data-intensive work 10x faster and with 100% accuracy.
Today, Intelligent Automation enables HR to automate repetitive tasks, access data from legacy HR systems, and enhance HR service delivery.
- Streamline HR Operations: Automate manual HR administration to focus on the high-value HR initiatives such as employee development and analytics.
- Accelerate Talent Acquisition: Recruit, screen, and onboard new hires more quickly and efficiently.
- Safeguard Employee Data: Ensure accuracy and completeness of employee information across the enterprise.

Using Employee Engagement Data to Drive Conversations, Improve Leadership and Change Culture
When it comes to the question of who is responsible for employee engagement, Culture Amp people scientist Sahra Kaboli-Nejad says there are two schools of thought on the matter: individuals own responsibility and managers and organizations own responsibility.
Kaboli-Nejad points out each has its own set of pros and cons, but the best approach is one that “empowers individuals at all levels of the organization to be accountable.”
She says: “This will encourage managers to empower employees to take action on the things they have control over (e.g., continuous learning), while simultaneously holding managers and the organization responsible for system-level impacts on individual-level experiences (e.g., poor resourcing).”
If you are looking to improve your employee engagement, culture or are working to get leadership buy-in then this conversation is for you! Join this webinar and hear how a leading media conglomerate has revolutionised their people and culture strategy with employee engagement data. Sharing key learnings along the way, you will leave this webinar with clear takeaways that will help you succeed in your organisations journey for cultural change.
Key takeaways include:
- How employee engagement can drive better conversations at the team and leadership levels
- How to improve your people and culture strategy
- How people data can aid culture change
