Over the recent years, the industry of HR is continuously reshaped and redefined by augmented reality, the blockchain, artificial intelligence, and predictive analysis software.

Within the next 24 months, HR professionals will begin using blockchain.

 

  • Have you ever thought that Internet of Things (IoT) would become important for HR professionals? Internet of Things (IoT) provides lots of potential for workplace disruptions and gains especially in 2018! But what can you expect from IoT? Well, with plenty of data from the employees’ wearable, the HR professionals could focus on having a more efficient and friendly workplace environment by better productivity, effective communication, travel trends, and team guides to work together. Employers are looking for more interesting and fun ways to use the employee-driven IoT technology to improve the process and solve work-related problems. This would create quantified employees, driven by the focus on wellness, and productivity! IoT has also improved existing products by putting new components and services.

 

  • There will be a rise of conversational platforms such as Alexa or Siri.

In IoT projects, this disruptive technology can help in better decision-making by improving the operations in HR talent management. It provides visibility to specific business outcomes.

Open feedback tools are being appreciated as growth is one of the major concerns both for the employers and employees. There’s an explosion of new ways to have transparency and benchmarking tools to find the worth of an individual via open feedback. This has been very promising for the business rather than the annual evaluation or performance review which is rather obsolete now!
