Current tooling is not fit for purpose and does not meet the needs of the modern resource manager.
A day in the life of a resource manager…
The remit of the resource manager has expanded, the strategic importance has been elevated – yet the systems aren’t in place to support this.
Resourcing has been undervalued and underinvested in, compared to many other supporting functions such as talent acquisition, finance or HR. Legacy systems being used are often unfit for purpose. Now is the time to change that!
The resource manager role has been elevated, with a more strategic focus
We’re seeing a shift taking place in more advanced resource management functions. The resource manager is being elevated into a more strategic role. With AI doing the heavy lifting, there is more time to focus on the employee experience and career coaching aspects of resource management.
