Today, technology is everywhere and smartphones, location trackers, sensors and wearables drive our lives. In fact, we spend a huge chunk of our time interacting with digital applications; we are being closely monitored by digital devices and are influenced by recommendations that are highly driven by analytics and automation.
This is how the digital life is persuading to revive HR from all angles i.e., what tools to utilize, how we communicate and engage with employees, etc.
Cloud-based HR solutions would garner immense acceptance rates
Yes, the revolutionary paradigm shift from traditional or legacy HR solutions toward mobile and cloud-based HCM solutions would accelerate in the coming years.
These solutions are turning out to be a boon for HR personnel when it comes to processing payroll and other key HR operations.
Talent management would be a different ballgame altogether

With millennials and highly connected people dominating the workforce these days, there is a dire need for having agile and mobile employee management tools for HR people to keep up with the pace.
This is where the Internet of Things (IoT) can prove to be a great game-changer for HR.
Data-driven and analytical decisions would take center stage
