Having trouble with your HR Technology? (HRIS, HRMS, HCM) Slate can provide a team of experts to help your company with client-side implementation.
By: Julianna Fricchione
You’ve found yourself in a situation where either you, your team, or your organization is voicing frustrations about your current technology solution. The common phrase heard at department meetings and in 1-1’s is “Nothing is working”. It has crossed your mind more than once to simply toss your computer out your office window.
Good news, you’re not alone in feeling like your technology is always failing you. Better news, the solution to creating a functioning organization and “fixing” your technology is easier than you think.
Best news, 99% of your headaches likely fall into one of the following categories:
– Outdated Software- You are currently using software that was licensed or purchased
years ago or your system admin has not utilized newly released features
– Poor implementation experience- Your implementation was rushed, understaffed during
the project, or never fully finished according to the project plan
– Untrained Users- The system admins and users are slower to adopt the new system or
are brand new employees to the organization who were not present during the initial
implementation for training.
If you nodded your head to any of the above, then I welcome you to follow along in this series “What to do when your technology doesn’t work”. Every week we’ll be going through a new category, identifying useful strategies to improve common issues, and hearing from some of Slate’s experts with tips and tricks to improve your overall technology satisfaction.
