The buzz: “Millennial expectations are shaping where technology is going and where the modern worker will be” (Amber Hyatt, SilkRoad technologyadvice.com/blog/human-resources/11-insights-from-hr-tech-2015). Descaling the complexity of legacy systems and cumbersome processes in the HR technology space is almost laughable to most people. Why? While agile and other lean approaches make sense on paper, they are tough to implement in our work culture where “more is more”, not less. Our panel will explore how the principles of simplicity can effectively be applied to HR technology. The experts speak. Suzanne McAndrew, Willis Towers Watson: “The big question of our time is not Can it be built? but Should it be built?” (Eric Ries). Dan Ward, Author: “Complexity by itself is neither good nor bad; it is confusion that is bad” (Don Norman). Mark McCauley, SAP: “Dress appropriately” (Mary Barra). Join us for Keeping It Simple: The Future of HR.
