Over time, that will shift into a heavy prevalence of machine generated or monitored data like movement patterns, keystrokes, social interaction, vocal intonation, environmental measurements, and communication patterns.” John Sumser concludes his series, HR Data Makes Its Own Gravy (Part 2). Jason Lauritsen writes, “According to Gallup’s most recent data, employee engagement is at an all-time high.” I guess Employee Engagement Is About To Get (A Lot) More Challenging.
