As professional services organizations put projects on hold or reduce budgets due to the pandemic, it’s harder for them to secure market share. Firms are discounting their services, reinventing their processes, and investing in hybrid delivery models to retain and attract clients.

While adapting to digital delivery methods is a challenge, it also can enlarge the pool of available talent by removing the restriction of physical location. However, this benefit is also challenging for payroll, contracts, and HR management.

Professional services firms have high levels of employee engagement – in the top 26% compared to other industries. However, many are still lagging with their HR processes and systems. It’s not uncommon for firms to rely on dated, core HR tools that don’t take an end-to-end view of the employee experience. This isn’t ideal since professional services executives consider their employees represent 76% of their company’s value.

In this eBook, we explore the core employee experience challenges in professional services and explain how a solution like Qualtrics, SAP SuccessFactors, or Lyra from Rizing can help.

The utilities sector – which encompasses power, natural gas, water and sewage – is one upon which we all depend. Globally, its value is predicted to reach $8,105b in 2026. It’s also a sector in the midst of change. As well as the challenges posed by Covid-19, utilities are under enormous pressure from customers and citizens to reduce their emissions and carbon footprint, as well as adhere to an ever-growing set of regulations and requirements. According to a recent study, 93% of utility organizations plan to adapt to meet consumer expectations for a cleaner economy over the next few years.

Digital technologies are playing an increasingly central role in helping utilities businesses achieve these targets, and Covid-19 has amplified the need for more automated, digital tools in areas such as IoT, edge computing and AI. A recent study reveals that the pandemic accelerated digital implementation in 45% of utility companies.

However the reality also remains that many utility forms are still using dated technology to manage core infrastructure like payroll and HR, which limits efficiencies, impacts the employee experience, and increases potential vulnerability to cyber-attack. This eBook we explore some of the core challenges that relate specifically to employee experience in the utilities sector, and explain how a solution from Rizing can help.

Despite this, the financial services sector still has a long way to go when it comes to digital transformation, and especially when it comes to the employee experience. As a result, the financial services industry has the second-highest rate of total employee turnover globally and is nearly three points higher than the average for other industries.

While some financial services firms have started to invest in digital tools, it’s been primarily in order to optimize customer experience, and many have failed to look inward and focus on the needs of their employees.

To stay relevant, today’s financial services organizations need to move beyond traditional human resources management and create a digital brand that resonates both with customers and employees.

Alarmingly, the pandemic has also exposed the lack of overall digital transformation in the sector, with many institutions still operating using dated, manual technology to manage their overall employee experience.  For many healthcare workers, especially those at the frontline of patient care in hospitals, the last two years have been extraordinarily challenging. Now, healthcare organizations are in a situation where they need to prioritise employee experience more than ever before.

Yet the sector still has a way to go in terms of its digital transformation, especially when it comes to the employee experience. In most construction firms, it’s not uncommon for employees to be using paper-based timesheets, and for scheduling to be done using Excel spreadsheets.

Payroll is also often managed manually, despite the complexity associated with managing pools of contractors in different teams and with varying levels of expertise and pay rates. Employee enquiries are typically handled on an ad-hoc basis, managed over the phone by the human resources team, or even the business owner, and career development and training is also often managed on a very sporadic and ‘as needed’ basis.
