Sense
of Purpose
Do employees care whether a company stands for something beyond
supplying a steady paycheck? The data says yes. Job candidates cite
"culture and values" as their most important consideration about a
potential employer, according to the latest LinkedIn "Global
Recruiting Trends" report. "Mission and vision" ranks third.
That data explains why Oracle VP of HCM Transformation Bertrand
Dussert puts "a clear organizational purpose and brand promise" as
#1 among the four big bets HR chiefs must make now for their
workplaces to be relevant in 2020. The other three: improve digital
relationships with talent, do the important things faster, and
unplug from conventional learning and development. Read how organizations can
make good on these bets. |

Database Strategy: Buy a 'Smartphone,' Not a Bagful of
Gadgets
Here's how Juan Loaiza, one of Oracle's database leaders, is
thinking about cloud databases: you want something that's like a
really great smartphone, with the power to run any app, while also
simplifying your life by putting it all in one place. What you
don't want is a bagful of gadgets—such as a GPS, a fitness tracker,
and an MP3 player—that each does one thing OK. Here's the tech that
drives that difference. |
Three Reasons to Move Risk Management and Compliance Tools to the
Cloud
Fraud cost companies 5 percent of their revenue last year, KPMG
estimates, and 65 percent of it was perpetrated by employees and 21
percent by former employees. The root of the problem: weak controls
and the high costs of strengthening them. Here's what to
do. |
Five Lessons from the Original Cloud Company, NetSuite
If your business model isn't taking advantage of the cloud, "you're
going to be out of business in the not-too-distant future," says
Zach Nelson, the former CEO of NetSuite, now with Oracle since its
NetSuite acquisition. From campus bookstores to
shoemakers, why all companies must go
digital. |

Oracle
Strengthens Developer Ties With Bristol Accelerator
Several startups in the modest, technology-oriented city of
Bristol, England, credit Oracle with giving them the resources and
advice needed to move their businesses to the next level. Gareth
Williams, founder of YellowDog, says Oracle provided technical and
other resources that helped it scale rapidly as it grew from 577
customer companies in just a year. And now Oracle has a new branch
of its global Startup Cloud Accelerator program in Bristol.
