Case Scenario: HR Technology beyond Social Media
Drawing on the material in the background readings and doing additional research, prepare a 3- to 4-page handout in which you describe what is meant by cloud-based HR systems and how it might be used. What are the strengths and challenges of using cloud-based computing for HRM? Are there specific HRM functions that are more applicable to cloud computing than others? Discuss.
You should develop a colorful handout with graphics that is intended for SHRM conference attendees. The attendees want to learn what they can about how the cloud works, so they can share the handout with their HR staff back at the office.
