Talent-driven innovation is the top source of competitive advantage in today’s global knowledge economy. The pressure on HR professionals to balance mission-critical programs to retain rising stars, develop core performers, and cut costs from workforce operations has never been more acute.
Against this background, it’s no surprise that the topics of cloud computing and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) are generating intense interest among HR executives. Yet there is nothing inherently magical about SaaS or cloud-based solutions. It’s simply a technology proposition that needs to be compared with alternatives according to an organisation’s needs.
Join this session to take a fact-based approach to these technology opportunities, learn the results of Oracle’s analysis in this space, understand the advantages and challenges of adopting HR technology as a service, and to take the first step in seeing through the clouds.
