Note: Our team is working closely with UNLEASH this year on a series of activities, including a quarterly column penned by yours truly. This is the first in the series as I bring research to show that the newest fad, generative AI, may have long-lasting and dangerous side effects. What if the tools used by millions of people every day are actually eroding our ability to think?

The HR technology market in 2024 was a story of resilience and growth amidst a rapidly changing global landscape. With the U.S. election dominating headlines and sparking conversations around the future of work, and consumer confidence rebounding from the challenges of prior years, the HR tech space has continued to demonstrate its vital role in shaping how organizations adapt to new demands.

One of the most exciting programs that our team runs every year is the HR Tech Awards. Over the last five years we’ve awarded dozens of companies for their work across talent acquisition, benefits, compensation, talent management, learning, and other key areas. The heart behind this program is to create a way for HR and talent leaders to more easily review, select, and buy the technologies they need.

There’s an old proverb that essentially states “the shoemaker’s children have no shoes.” The more modern version is “the cobbler’s children have no shoes,” even though handmade shoes are mostly a lost art. However, the metaphor still has a profound message. Where we have expertise, we often use that expertise for the benefit of others, even if it means we go without the benefit ourselves. That’s true today in the context of learning.

This past week I was in the great city of Chicago speaking at the RPO Association annual conference. I had the privilege of delivering a keynote on the newest research on RPO buyers, their priorities, and what they want most. There were so many incredible organizations represented in the attendee audience, and I am honored to call many of them friends.

Every year our team attends HR Tech in Vegas, and inevitably every year I hear from someone on the show floor or post-event with the exact same complaint:There’s nothing new or exciting. -Various peopleFor whatever reason, I put on my crusader hat and I end up highlighting a few of the companies I’ve spoken with that have a truly interesting or innovative product, but that conversation never makes it farther than that private discussion. So this year I’ve decided to change that.

When was the last time you had an “aha” moment that really excited you? For me it was during a recent family trip to Disneyland. I was keynoting at a conference in Indian Wells, California, and our kids tagged along for a quick visit to Disney before the school year began. We were at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and I realized my kids were totally wrapped up in the experience and felt like they were truly part of the story/ride, not just spectators watching it unfold.

Every year I look forward to our team’s survey and analysis of the talent acquisition market, because it’s a space that moves quickly and has a tremendous amount of innovation both in the technologies as well as the practices that employers use to create successful outcomes. This year’s report is no exception, highlighting what is changing, what’s new, and what talent teams are doing to prepare for what’s next.

When speaking with a talent acquisition leader recently, he mentioned that some of the challenges his team is facing have been the same ones that he’s faced at other organizations for over a decade. While that may be true, there are also many companies that are overcoming obstacles and creating hiring outcomes that are positive and repeatable. If your organization wants those kinds of outcomes, then you need to join me and Mike Kaupe from HiBob for a webinar next week on this topic.

The first study our team ever began to do year over year was focused on talent acquisition. We gathered data from employers on their biggest priorities and challenges in order to help talent leaders to make better decisions. This year, our 2024 Talent Acquisition Trends study covers more than 1,200 employers and 1,000 candidates from around the world, and as usual, it delves into some of the biggest issues and areas of opportunity for today’s talent and HR leaders.
