HR Analyst Commentary: “In an increasingly automated world, connections between employees in an organization have never been more important,” said Stacia Garr, co-founder and principal analyst, RedThread Research. "While HR has been using technology to gather data and fulfill administrative tasks for a while, very few organizations are using technology to establish and strengthen positive connections between employees. By providing organizations a platform to create authentic human connections across teams to motivate and inspire employees, technologies such as Globoforce’s WorkHuman Cloud are driving the shift away from mere data collection toward establishing human connections.” “The last few years have seen a tremendous shift in the way people work, and our approach to performance development needs to change with it,” said Cliff Stevenson, principal analyst, talent management and workforce, Brandon Hall group. “Solutions like Globoforce’s Conversations platform can harness the power of real-time feedback from managers and peers alike and help build a culture of teamwork, infused with positivity, transparency, and trust, which is essential to keeping the contemporary employee motivated and fulfilled.” “Research has shown that meaningful feedback and recognition have an observable impact on an employee’s personal and professional growth,” said Madeline Laurano, partner, Aptitude Research. “By encouraging open and frequent communication between managers and employees, as well as between colleagues, employees will feel valued and motivated to do their best work, creating a more positive, open workplace.” For additional information about GloboforceOpens in a new tab, Conversations,Opens in a new tabLife EventsOpens in a new tab, or other WorkHuman Cloud products, please visit https://www.workhuman.com/products/Opens in a new tab or call 888.743.6723.
