Technology is too
complicated!
Refuse to acknowledge:
o Technology can empower HR
o Provides timely, accurate & quality

Exposure to SaaS will demonstrate that
there is no need for:
 Elaborate hardware platforms
 Software expertise
They feel that:
o Fresh IT staff will be required to
manage computer based systems
