and the rise of
independent work.”
(Jeff Weiner, CEO

6. EVIDENCE-BASED HRM
• Evidence-based HR refers to a process in which the
organization evaluates any decision or process
against data, real experience, expert opinions,
and/or other types of information to ensure the
decision is likely to have the desired outcome.
• For this to work best, the “evidence” used should
be purposefully sought out.
• When data is taken from multiple sources, ensure
it’s applicable within your context.

29. THE DIGITAL TOOLKIT FOR FUTURE-
FIT HRM CONSULTANTS
• Design thinking
• Analytics and Big
Data
• App-based functions
• Talent Acquisition
• Artificial Intelligence
(AI) with cognitive
processing
30. DELOITTE’S HCM TRENDS 2017 –
THE RISE OF THE COGNITIVE
RECRUITER
• Leveraging new technologies—from social to
cognitive
• Evolution toward cognitive capabilities that build
on mobile and cloud technologies, as well as
social networks e.g. LinkedIn.
• The more innovative ideas and solutions are
centered around cognitive technologies such as
artificial intelligence (AI), machine-to-machine
learning, robotic process automation, natural
language processing, predictive algorithms and
self-learning.
• Chatbots are becoming popular, including the
recently launched Olivia, which guides candidates
through an application process with sequenced
questions.
31. DELOITTE’S HCM TRENDS 2017
– THE RISE OF THE COGNITIVE
RECRUITER
• IBM’s AI pioneer, Watson, is now moving into the
space with three new technologies:
❑ A machine learning platform that ranks the
priority of open requisitions;
❑ Social listening for an organization’s and
competitors’ publicly available reviews on
Glassdoor, Twitter, and newsfeeds and
❑ A tool that matches candidates to jobs through a
“fit score” based on career experiences and
skills.
• These technologies take pre-existing social data and
information and then apply advanced cognitive
capabilities to deliver actionable analysis.
32. THE SCOPE AND IMPACT OF DIGITIZATION
IN HRM
• While focused until recently on topics like efficiency and direct access to HR data and
services for individual employees, a new and expanded HR transformation is underway, led
by employee experience, cloud capabilities including mobile and continuous upgrades, a
renewed focus on talent, as well as the availability of new digital technologies like machine
learning and artificial intelligence.
• These capabilities are enabling HR re-imagine new ways of delivering HR services and
strategies throughout the organization. For example:
❑ Use advanced prediction and optimization technologies to shift focus from time-consuming
candidate screening processes to innovative HR strategies and business models that
support growth
❑ Help employees with tailored career paths, push personalized learning recommendations,
suggest mentors and mentees based on skills and competencies
❑ Predict flight risk of employees and prescribe mitigation strategies for at-risk talent
❑ Leverage intelligent management of high-volume, rules-based events with predictions and
recommendations
33. RESEARCH-BASED READINESS OF HR TO
DIGITIZE
• 2018 Key Issues Research from The Hackett Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HCKT).
But while most HR executives recognize the future potential of digital
technology to transform the enterprise as well as HR roles and operating
models, less than half feel their organizations have the resources and
capabilities in place to execute and support their company’s digital
transformation strategy.
• The research also found that urgent shortfalls exist in HR’s ability to
support critical goals, including developing executives who can lead in
volatile environments and enabling business strategy execution.
• In addition, there are significant internal gaps, with limited ability to
address some of the most critical development areas.
• On the upside, HR organizations are now targeting many of these same
areas for improvement initiatives in 2018.
34. THE 5-STEP TRANSFORMATION ROADMAP
TO A DIGITAL ORGANIZATION
• #1: Learn from the outside but stay true to your DNA. Companies need to
embrace innovation and learn from digital natives—but not at the expense
of their core strengths and cultures.
• #2: Follow the map, trust the terrain. Leaders must articulate a broad
strategic outline, but stay open to feedback from both within the
organization and outside it.
• #3: Place many bets. In light of the volatility and ambiguity of the market,
CEOs need more than one approach to digital transformation.
• #4: Digitize the organization. Leaders must rework the organizational
structures of their companies to make them fully agile and digital.
• #5: Build a talent pipeline. CEOs should hire new digital talent, but also
train current staff in digital capabilities.
35. TRANSFORMATION
ROADMAP TO A
DIGITAL ORGANIZATION
• You upgrade, we
change
• Do you have a plan?
• Build a digital HR
team
• Re-think and re-invent
• Innovate and
Implement
• Reskill and recruit
• Benchmark
• Embrace design
thinking
39. THE FUTURE OF HRM METRICS &
ANALYTICS?
“HRM will have to migrate from the
fundamentals of people science to the
complexities of data science.”
(Cotter, 2017)
40. THE KEY ROLES OF HRM IN DIGITAL
TRANSFORMATION
• A digitization is a process that requires the involvement
of the whole company.
• The HR function appears to be the right actor to
coordinate it:
❑As the driver of transformations
❑As the owner of employee day-to-day experiences
❑As the warrantor of the alignment between business
projects and the overall strategy
❑As a talent and corporate culture sponsor
41. THE KEY ROLES OF HRM IN DIGITAL
TRANSFORMATION
• Spread a digital culture to all generations of employees
• Give a sense to the digitization through: charters, tool trainings, teleworking
agreements, tutoring, reverse mentoring etc.
• Respond to the constant needs regarding new skills and professions
• Promote collaborative work inside the company
• Support employees in their new roles/jobs
• Increase employees’ participation in the digital transformation
• Promote new functions and skills development
• Push the employees to use new technologies and respond to the new HR
challenges
42. STRATEGIES TO BUILD AND GAIN DIGITAL
LITERACY (DQ)
• Companies should respond to this challenge by building new pools of skilled
digital employees.
• To do so, they must understand who these potential employees are, where they
can be found, and how they can be attracted and retained.
• Companies also need to know what kinds of talent can be nurtured within the
existing employee base; digital talent must come not only from the acquisition of
new personnel for specific jobs but also from the development of digital skills in
existing roles.
• Companies must bring the entire organization along on the journey, creating a
true digital culture and inculcating in their employees a deep understanding of
the company’s digital imperatives and a mastery of select skills across all
functions.
• If the growth in digital talent outpaces the ability of the rest of the workforce to
keep up, the company as a whole will be left behind.
43. STRATEGIES TO BUILD AND GAIN DIGITAL
LITERACY (DQ)
• To build and retain a strong pool of digital talent, companies must answer
four important questions:
❑ They need to understand who is available on the market and who makes up
the core of digital talent already in place across the business, and they need
to identify the new digital job profiles and the number of digital employees
required in the near future.
❑ They must next understand where to find the required employees over the
medium and long term
❑ How to recruit and retain them.
❑ They need to understand what digital skills need to be nurtured and
developed among their existing workers. Without skilled staff, there can be
no digital transformation.
