What HR Leaders are saying…
How can I retain and
engage my top talent?
Our company has
capability gaps in new
technology areas across
the organization.
We are shifting our
business to a services
business. How do I
transform the workforce?
We compete for engineers with
some of the most successful
silicon valley companies? How
can I attract and retain the
brightest in our company?
How do we create more
collaboration and
knowledge sharing across
the company?
Our performance
and comp process
is obsolete and not
engaging people.
We are still having
trouble attracting
millenials and younger
workers.
Our mid-level and
entry leadership gaps
are still huge
How can we globalize
our employment brand
and talent programs??
We need to restructure
HR to build common
systems and reduce
costs.
The skills of our HR
business partners and
specialists need
improvement.
We need better data
and analytics in HR.
Our training organization
is too expensive and not
driving enough value.
How do we more
rapidly move talent
from early leadership
to senior leadership?
We need to accelerate
hiring of senior and
mid leadership in Asia
and Middle east.
How do we
increase women
and diversity in
leadership?
How do we drive
greater innovation into
the organization?
How do we
optimize our global
mobility program?

of HR

The Evolution of HR since the ‘90s
6
Builds on 1st Generation foundation by improving the efficiency of service delivery, focusing on the effectiveness of strategic HR services that support the business, and measuring business performance targets.
Focused on establishing and improving new HR service delivery models with strong emphasis on rationalizing infrastructure to deliver transactional HR services – utilizing core HR systems (e.g., ERP), standardized processes, and consistent organizational designs.

Emerging HR Trends
“The 21st Century Workforce” is different – and engagement and
retention are now top issues on the minds of CEOs and CHROs
HR is falling behind in structure, skills, analytics, technology, and
the development of world-class recruiting and L&D programs
Technology, analytics, and the “overwhelmed employee” are
acute focus areas for HR
Skills gaps, the rapid obsolescence of skills, the need for next-
generation learning, and talent mobility will differentiate companies
Leadership continues to be the biggest challenge companies face
around the world
Today’s workforce demands a whole new set of leadership, talent, recruiting,
and engagement strategies and HR organizations are struggling to keep pace

Trends we see in the marketplace
What we see in the marketplace:
• Business leaders view delivery of HR services in
an efficient, effective and compliant manner as
“table stakes”
• Operational efficiency is fundamental to a more
effective HR function and no longer the primary
focus of HR Transformation. With so many
companies having already accomplished big
improvements. The real value today involves
leveraging those operational improvements to
support the broader business strategy.
• Many companies are shifting to globally integrated
HR service delivery models
• Leading organizations are creating increased
capacity for strategic and consultative activities by
streamlining operational HR activities first

Business Driven HR Case for Change
What we see in the marketplace:
• Business leaders understand the value of people
and expect HR to play a more central role in
executing the business strategy
• The business is willing to invest in HR services that
it sees as valuable (e.g. new market entry,
business transformation, and M&A/divestitures)
• Leading organizations are using quantifiable
measurements to reflect HR’s contribution to
business outcomes
• Most HR organizations focus too much attention on
operational excellence — and not enough on
creating business value. Both are essential for
making the case for change in today’s market

Next Generation of HR Service Delivery
What we see in the marketplace:
• Increased usage and breadth of self service
beyond simple transactions which impacts the HR
service delivery model
• Larger focus on defining and implementing shared
services for transactional activities and redefining
the role of the HR Business Partner and Centers of
Expertise
• Moving to a more effective service delivery model
requires significant behavioral change and
capabilities. Strategic activities require different
skills. For example, HR Business Partners must
have broad HR knowledge and consultative skills
and are not required to perform traditional
administrative HR activities.
• Leading organizations are developing a roadmap
for HR transformation, including the priorities,
business cases and the future solution

HR in the Cloud
What we see in the marketplace:
• Emergence of Software as a Service (SaaS)
technology for HR and point solutions
• Increasing number of customers are leveraging
SaaS as a key HR Transformation enabler as a
result of faster implementation, lower total cost of
ownership, intuitive usability and an accelerated
time to value
• Changing need of the HR Portal to integrate SaaS
and other technology/sourcing solutions

Talent Operations, Process and Technology
What we see in the marketplace:
• The ability to improve talent management more
than cost or efficiency is driving an increasing
number of HR decisions around talent process and
technology
• HR and Talent strategies vary based on geography
• Talent management is one of the key drivers for
the business to fund HR technology initiatives
• Increased competition in talent technology: growth
and proliferation of point solutions at same time HR
systems are upgrading their capabilities
• Some organizations are failing to realize the full
value of their investments by trying to implement
Talent strategy solely through technology without
addressing Talent operations and process

HR Benchmarking & Leading Practices
What we see in the marketplace:
• Consistent requests for benchmarking data and
leading HR business practices to understand
where organizations fall within their peer groups
• HR Leadership values benchmarking data as
important inputs into the business case for HR
Transformation
• Need to go deeper into benchmarking than the
traditional HR metrics and FTE ratio’s
• HR Business Partners and HR Shared Services
require specific data that cannot be found in the
typical benchmark data set
• Leading organizations are using benchmark data
and leading practices as a comparative guide to
determine what makes sense for their organization
and cultural identity

Evolution of HR Outsourcing
What we see in the marketplace:
• There is no longer a “one-size-fits-all” solution for
the HR Outsourcing space
• Buyers are taking control of the evolving HR
outsourcing (HRO) provider landscape with
custom-designed solutions that take advantage of
different vendor and technology options
• Total HR Outsourcing (BPO) providers have
struggled to deliver global solutions consistently
causing some clients to take services back in
house
• There is a greater need for the integration of HRO
solutions — both across providers and within the
HR Service Delivery Model

HR Technology
What we see in the marketplace:
• Focus on driving out operational costs via an
integrated service delivery, process improvement
and HCM technology strategy
• Accessing personal and workplace information
24/7 via self service applications is improving
operational efficiency and is now expected practice
• The integration of HR applications with wireless
and mobile technology is evolving at a rapid pace
• U.S. based companies are trending towards a
global consolidation of Core HR technology to a
single HR provider (supporting analytics and lower
total cost of ownership (TCO))
• The HR technology landscape has matured into
fully integrated systems that link recruiting,
learning, talent management, and compensation
systems
• EMEA based companies continue to trend towards
a best of breed of approach
• Social media and mobile devices are raising the
bar on HR Service Delivery

The Top-7 HR Technology Trends we see in the marketplace:
HR Tech Trend Overview
Increased Focus on HR
Analytics
Given the importance of Talent and People,
organizations have moved beyond gut instinct
and tribal wisdom in making workforce
decisions. Analytics are fast becoming critical
in making informed business decisions.
Embracing Software as a
Service (SaaS)
Cloud computing and SaaS are the next big
disruptive HR technologies. SaaS has already
demonstrated value in terms of scalability and
flexibility while reducing support costs and
expensive and disruptive upgrades.
Selecting Best-of-Breed
Solutions
Best-of-Breed HR Point solutions will remain a
force in HRM vendor selections, particularly in
the Talent Management space – learning,
recruitment, performance, succession
planning, and onboarding.

About the HR Transformation Survey
The 2015 KPMG HR Transformation Survey, formerly Towers Watson HR Service
Delivery and Technology Survey, is in its 18th year and was fielded between the second
week of January and the second week of February 2015. In total, 798 organizations
across 37 countries participated. Half of these participants are global organizations.
During the same survey window, organizations that utilize HR shared services functions
were given the opportunity to complete a follow-up survey: 198 organizations across 28
countries participated; 60% of these organizations are global.
In both surveys, responses came from a broad cross section of industries, with the largest
number concentrated in financial services, high technology, manufacturing, professional
services, healthcare and hospitals, and retail.
