It begins and ends with the data and whether or not it’s right.” - Stacey Harris “In the market we’re in today, 80% of the systems do about 80% of the same things… It’s that 20% that makes a difference as to whether or not that HR technology is adopted.” - Stacey Harris Resources Mentioned: ● Stacey Harris HR Systems Survey ● Meet the HR Tech Speakers: Stacey Harris Connect with Stacey on LinkedIn.
