A
Hard Look at HR Processes
We've been talking with a lot of HR leaders recently, and we've
been hearing this often: implementing a cloud HR system pushed them
to take a hard look at why they run the business like they do.
Because Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud has many best
practices built in as options, HR leaders are using their
implementations as an opportunity to ask whether they should
maintain some long-held, perhaps less efficient approaches. To
explore this, we're devoting this issue of Cloud Leader to
these HR transformation stories.
At Ruby Tuesday, HR Vice President Lois Collins welcomed the
challenge to existing processes, and she describes her team's
effort to digitize its HR processes in the article Ruby Tuesday Takes HR
Digital to Better Engage Employees. A recent success
for the HR team came in reducing the drop-off rate of candidates
who start the job application process. Says Collins, "The first
impression you make as a company is the minute that person applies
to your organization." You can hear more stories like this below
and get advice from experts, including Oracle CEO Mark
Hurd. |

Oracle's
HCM Cloud Story: Build Engaging Employee Experiences by Challenging
Assumptions
Oracle hires 20,000 employees each year. Recently the company moved
many HR-related self-service transactions to Oracle Human Capital
Management Cloud to create the foundation for better employee
engagement, more insightful data, and greater efficiencies. "Since
we went live, people have been telling me every day how much they
like the new interface and how intuitive it is, especially managers
who can now manage HR transactions and review employees in one
place," writes Joyce Westerdahl, Oracle's executive vice president
of human resources, in her article about Oracle's own journey to
Oracle HCM Cloud. |
Samuel, Son & Co. Builds a Single Workforce View with Oracle
HCM Cloud
Samuel, Son & Co.'s C-suite wanted workforce metrics that could
help the company manage talent better, but its human resources
systems were too fragmented to provide such data. So the metals
processor and distributor launched a project that will replace 13
HR and payroll systems with Oracle HCM Cloud. "It no longer makes
business sense to implement an on-premises solution," says Scott
Busch, vice president of human resources. Learn more about Samuel, Son & Co.'s
plan. |
Three Challenges Facing HR Leaders
Doug Reed, president of the Oracle HCM User Group (OHUG), cites
three big challenges facing HR leaders: doing business globally
with a consistent HR footprint; keeping up with the pace of change
management, training, and education; and integrating HR systems,
particularly with financial applications. Learn more about these
challenges in a q&a with
Reed, plus join him and other HR peers at the
OHUG Global
Conference, June 6–9 in New Orleans. |

User Group Members Talk Cloud, Big Data, Mobility,
Security
If you feel like you're sprinting to catch up with today's big
technology trends, you're not alone. Only 18 percent of
organizations have made their enterprise applications either highly
or somewhat mobile, and only 24 percent have strong security,
according to a recent survey of 690 respondents across three Oracle
user groups. Learn what else the survey
revealed—and what you can do to be better
prepared. |
