Quotes:

“Vendors are building out all these toolsets, and clients still aren't using them, and they're moving more to core BI tools that are layered on top of data warehouses.”

“One of the questions that we ask [in our survey] is, ‘What are you using your HR analytics tools for?’ . . . What was beautiful to see this year was that while HR metrics in general are still leading, DE&I was #2 this year.”
