Do you know what your employees think about your employee benefits & policies? What’s your organisation’s first impression on new employees like? Would employees stick even if they were offered a higher remuneration? And how much time do employees really spend doing meaningful work vs. worrying about their payroll, reimbursements, etc? Is your organization’s skillset compatible with the needs of tomorrow? Is your OKR strategy working? How do customers perceive your products on the field?
The very face of the new age workforce management has changed over the last few years with the advent of AI and NLP. By 2030, over 85 million jobs could go unfilled according to a report by Korn Ferry, even with new technology springing up. Organizations have started realizing that employees expect the same level of experience as consumers and with remote work on the rise, there is even more competition when it comes to acquiring, nurturing, and retaining quality talent globally. With CHROs sitting on the center table, Human Capital and Human Potential have become a distinct advantage for companies worldwide.
Employee well-being is no more a buzz word, but a mindset being adopted by progressive organizations looking to give every employee a personalized experience throughout the key moments that matter in their journey with the organization.

Before I tell you about Bumblebee – HR automation platform, let us look into the life of Recruitment HR Manager Donna.
Donna is a fun-loving person, who loves watching Netflix and chilling with a glass of wine. Since the pandemic, she is under lockdown and working from home. Typically, she gets up at 7 am with a cup of coffee, but today she got up at 6 am because it’s Thursday and she has to send her weekly reports by Friday. But before she can start on that she customarily checks out her email – There are 3 for new hiring requirements and all are urgent, there are some emails from Rhea and John with respect to employee leave policy during COVID-19, and Rachel – her HR assistant who is reminding Donna to onboard the college interns.
Now she dreads the time it would take to reply to all while finishing her work on time.
