Quote of the week

This is the ability to take data from lots of different aspects of the environment; the marketplace, inside the organisation, and add insight to this data to add value and help predict, rather than react.”
David Morgan, International HR Director, Kronos, on the changing role of HR in the age of tech, interviewed by Louron Pratt. Read more.
