Top 10 benefits of using an org chart software

Businesses have been using organizational charts to fulfill a very basic but significant function: visualizing the organization structure. Basically, an org chart is a map as to where exactly you are in an organization. Nevertheless, org charts need to be used updated and defined properly in order to be effective. Without the use of software, org charts can become labor-intensive and mistakes can negatively impact the very core of your business.

5.       Org chart software helps effective project management by enabling managers to view key HR data such as headcount, age, diversity and compensation.

Why Human Resources Professionals are essential to the change management process

HR is expected to align employee and company interests, advocate for employees and for management, as well as manage employee and organization development. Paradoxically, HR must act as both stabilizer and champion in the midst of change. The rest of the organization looks to HR to provide needed structures, processes and approaches to support the change process and to see that change management efforts deliver sustainable results.

HR can deliver impressive results by providing key insight into the company’s talent pool and designing various what-if scenarios. Adopting this combined approach enables HR to accelerate sustainable change, increase commitment to needed changes, and develop greater capacity for future change.

To collaborate and communicate effectively throughout such a strenuous process, HR professionals need a robust, comprehensive tool that will give them the key insight and collaboration abilities to proactively prepare for change, minimize disruption on the organization, make better-informed decisions and facilitate workforce transition.

Nakisa® OrgModeler™ takes the complexity out of your planning processes and reduces the risk and uncertainty of making critical enterprise and talent decisions.

HR professionals know the benefits of well-managed data. Now that processes are moving online, more data is being recorded about employees and more trends are being analyzed, HR data is becoming more complex than ever before. A good HR data management process has become vital to the health and success of organizations. Is your HR data ready for the future?

As data continues to pile up, HR needs to identify the gaps in their data, stop collecting unusable data and start collecting the data they need to help solve current and future business challenges. At the same time, the data needs to be verified for accuracy and past errors need to be corrected.

That might sound simple, but HR knows that sorting through accumulated data is time-consuming and costly. To remain strategic, HR leaders need to find the right tools to ensure their teams do not get bogged down in data cleansing and that their data is consistently up-to-date and accurate.
