Digitize – but do it right!

13. October 2022

At the moment, I notice that many companies pick out individual HR topics and then quite promptly and frantically provide them with a digital tool. The result is usually subdued or no enthusiasm at all, which leads to astonishment in many places, because digital tools are the savior, right?! 

But the failure was foreseeable. Why? 

In most cases, there is no effective HR strategy that is accepted, supported and communicated by the management. Without such a strategy, there is a great danger of getting lost in the jungle of topics and only giving a tool to those who shout the loudest. In most cases, such solutions end up being more expensive and more complicated – because they are not coordinated – than a truly digitized solution. And what has been known for a long time, but is usually forgotten: there is not THE digital solution. It must always be sought on a company-specific basis. The HR strategy as a prerequisite for meaningful HR processes that can also be digitized. 

Talk to our interim managers today. They will accompany you competently and unagitatedly in and on this topic from A to Z. Their enormous experience ensures your digital solution, by the way, not only in HR, and ensures that you will not experience any surprises after the introduction of the digital platforms.
