How CIOs and CHROs Can Future-Proof HR With the Right Tech

Key Takeaways

  • Collaboration between HR and IT is crucial to finding the right tech.

  • Identifying the best HR software for an entire organization requires CIOs and CHROs to reconcile their departments’ priorities.

  • Look for HR tech that includes a tool for measuring employee usage and calculating ROI.

  • HR and IT both play important roles in familiarizing employees with new tech and providing them with ongoing support.

As a CIO, you already know implementing top technology supports your organization not just for today, but for growth tomorrow.

As a CHRO, you already know today’s top talent expects today’s top technology in the workplace … and will not hesitate to leave a company that does not have it.

In other words, you both aim for the same end result: a thriving organization with a bright future.

However, it may be up to both of you to act and own that challenge. A whopping 78% of business leaders said scalability is crucial when considering new HR tech in a 2022 Pollfish survey commissioned by Paycom. But only 50% believe their current tech is up to the task.

What you may not already know is that your partnership is key to truly proactive HR. Deloitte puts it bluntly: “HR organizations are on the brink of a vast digital transformation, but they can’t achieve it without IT.”

So let’s get introductions out of the way:

  • CIO, meet your CHRO
  • CHRO, meet your CIO

Per the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), “when it comes to driving innovation and business improvement, no relationship is more important.” You need one another to modernize your HR department.

In this guide, you’ll learn five key steps for collaboration, including how to:

  1. determine your focus
  2. build your team
  3. brainstorm strategies
  4. execute your shared vision
