Digitalizing HR: Connecting the workforce

Capgemini Consulting publishes its global HR Barometer report to investigate the trends and challenges facing today’s HR executives and their teams. The findings in this year’s report suggest that HR organizations are slowly beginning to use digital tools within Talent Management and for increasing knowledge sharing within their organizations. Further, the HR function appears to be struggling with service delivery in terms of clear roles and responsibilities both internally in the HR function but also in the interface with the business. Finally, the report highlights the perceived insufficiency of HR IT systems. The research utilizes the Digital Maturity Model (see figure 1), developed in collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), in order to measure the level of digital maturity in different aspects among HR organizations.
