So why is it such a hot topic at this year's conference? On the face of it, digital transformation appears to be about the technology. But in reality any organization looking for sustainable change will put its people first.
Digital change means cultural change
For cultural change to happen leaders look to simple employee engagement strategies for smooth implementation, easy messaging, and timely execution.
HR and frontline managers sit at the forefront of implementing any organizational change. For implementation to be successful, managers dealing with every day operations will need the simplest tools to support the changes.
Mobile apps present the most obvious opportunity to engage employees. As of 2015 Americans touched their phones 8 billion times per day. For each person that amounted to 2,617 times per day in 2016, the same amount of times we touch are faces!
It's no wonder that organizations are capitalizing on the potential visibility.
- HR, 41 % are actively building mobile apps to deliver services.
There are 2 main keys for tenable digital change for organizations considering or undergoing digital transformation.
- Think people
- No matter how deep into automation you go, you always want people involved in critical processes.
- Get internal collaboration with internal and cross-functional teams for input on actual operational issues that interrupt productivity and performance.
- Starting with collective problems, discuss how technology serves business goals.
- Agree on how to rollout upcoming change to ensure cooperation and acceptance.
- Pilot digital change with super users and early adopters who have influence, are open to change to serve as references to the rest of the organization.
- Create processes and teams that integrate various functions across the business and develop incentives to promote and share experiences while getting feedback to make quick and necessary adjustments.
- Technology as the enabler, and your employees are mobile first
- Fifty-six percent of companies we surveyed this year are redesigning their HR programs to leverage digital and mobile tools.
- Leverage the tools with the goal of improving the workplace.
- Digital tools should increase worker productivity, promote employee engagement and collaboration or permit employees to exercise a sense of purpose or belonging.
- Mulit-device accessibility gives employees freedom of choice and control while decreasing barriers to use
- The more complex the process, the more likely desktop is used, while mobile minutes dominate for in-app engagement, email and social media. Age is also a consideration, older access desktop while younger use mobile.
