The Big Debate: Does HR need technology or technology need HR?
It is how well HR uses the technology that makes it successful or not. Technology is just an enabler and you need to see the face of the organization and that is HR
Does HR need technology or technology need HR? According to the pro-HR group, HR existed before technology and did very well, and technology is an equaliser while HR is the differentiator. The pro-technology group said that today many people are connected. Showing the example of mobile phone usage in the crowd, they said today it is not possible to imagine someone without a mobile phone. HR is the only function which continues to exist despite technology; the rest of the people have moved on. Wrong decisions don't take place because of technology, they do so despite it.
