“Killer” HRMDS Scenarios

Objects To The Left Of Us, Objects To The Right

Persistent HRM Object Model Errors Part I — Job And Position

By Naomi Bloom on February 3, 2015

Introduction In May 2012, I published a blog post that covered the basics of objects and object modeling — the very basic basics.  Assuming you’ve all been studying this topic since then (if you hadn’t already done so), it seemed like a good time to note that simply applying the right modeling techniques does not get […]

Eight Characteristics Of Effective HRM And HRM Delivery Systems

Eight Characteristics Of Effective HRM And HRM Delivery Systems

By Naomi Bloom on December 5, 2011

In my last post, I told some all too typical business stories in which it was easy to recognize, in situ, really bad HRM policies and practices, HRM service delivery and HR technology use.  Every manager has their own favorite such tales of woe, and my HR practitioner colleagues are awash in the fallout from such […]

The Scourge of HRM Software — Technical Debt

The Scourge of HRM Software — Technical Debt

By Naomi Bloom on November 16, 2011

I spent a very intense week last July in Silicon Valley meeting mostly full days each with Workday, SuccessFactors, Taleo, Saba and SAP, and would like to start this post with a huge and very public thank you to all of these vendors for their time, their preparations, and their hospitality.  I’ve also been doing […]

Vocabulary Shapes Our (Wishful) Thinking

This post was inspired by a Twitter exchange with a valued colleague after I tweeted that this might not be the best time to be a new buyer of Oracle PSFT/EBS HRMS given Oracle’s commitment to Fusion HCM as the next generation of these long-established product lines.  My colleague very correctly […]

In Search Of HRM/HRMDS/HR Tech “Best” Practices

In Search Of HRM/HRMDS/HR Tech “Best” Practices

By Naomi Bloom on November 8, 2010

Of the many reasons cited for outsourcing one or more HRM business processes as well as for making investments in HRM software, none is more susceptible to marketing hype than that outsourcing providers and software vendors deliver “best” practices in HRM.  The best HRM software, “out of the box,” may certainly deliver some good practices in […]

More Of Naomi’s Killer Scenarios: Retroactive Processing

By Naomi Bloom on April 27, 2010

Once upon a time, the concept of retroactive payroll processing was invented to handle the all too often situation of a personnel action (that’s what they were called when I was young) that was presented to “the system” after the date on which is should have taken effect.  Without a retroactive processing capability in payroll, […]

More Of Naomi’s “Killer” Scenarios: KSAOC-Centric Strategic HRM

By Naomi Bloom on April 19, 2010

Figure 1: KSAOC-Centric, Strategic HRM One of the great debates in HR circles is over what is strategic and what is merely administrative with respect to human resource management (HRM) processes.  That which is strategic, often referred to as talent management, is considered worthy of executive attention, academic research, attendance at expensive conferences, and the writing […]
