How to Transform Your HR Department Through Technology, Even If Your HR Department Is Just You

2019 Annual Conference & Exposition
What you can do to make technology work for your HR department, even with very little money.

Many HR professionals are afraid of technology, but we shouldn't be. Even those of us with limited knowledge in this area or who are working in small to nonexistent HR departments can use technology to our advantage, making not only our lives easier, but also the lives of our managers and employees. Be inspired by the example of a 500-employee, 35-location wholesale distribution company that transformed its HR functions with new technology and just two (and a half) team members.

Learning Objectives:

  • How to find hidden money in existing contracts to pay for technology upgrades.
  • How to leverage your broker relationship for maximum value.
  • How to source and select potential technology vendors.
  • How to convince the C-suite of the need for new technology.
