I’m a fan of HR Technology. I think the right tech tools do a lot to empower an HR team to drive business processes and deliver results. On the flip side, the wrong—or broken—HR Tech can derail even the best team, and work against them, rather than for them. Recently I talked with a friend […]
Celebrating a successful 2015!
