The modern HR landscape is riddled with complexities· Companies must manage a global workforce, adhere to ever-changing regulations, and meet the growing expectations of employees· Yet, many organizations rely on outdated HR systems that are siloed, manual, and inefficient· This misalignment between HR capabilities and business goals can lead to several strategic challenges:
