With the support of the hi-tech advancements in the information
technology and related fields today we can see human
resource management has dramatically modified. Some
people may see it is a threat to the industry and some may see it as not.
Pros of Technological
Advancements
Today, use of information technology helps to collect many
of data which can be convert into information that is very useful. Information
are collecting in various levels of the organization including day-to-day using ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems, market surveys, news articles, research publications
are only few of them. Development of smartphones
and excessive usage of different mobile apps, web browsers and websites are collecting information through cookies which can convert into useful information.
These information are using to create AI (Artificial Intelligence) systems from
simple to more advanced ones such as “IBM Watson” that making thousands or even
more decisions in a fraction of a second. There is only one principle that
makes technology more advanced; that is “information”.
Having more information is helping to make the most accurate
information in any industry. Screening of
the information is helping an average organization to minimize the risk of taking
a wrong decision and maximize the benefit of taking a correct decision. Advanced
systems with tracking keywords are helping
to filter necessary information from the jargon and filter that information to
minimize the noise which would be possible to make confusions and complications. (Filtering information by keywords
is simplify the process). In real life of a human being or
an employee, this is the “experience”. Instead
of spending long time to gather the experience for an individual, technology is
collecting and analyzing information it collected from long time and many sources
to make things easy. This also creates the need of “experienced people in use
of information technology” to the organizations.
