‘Moving’ to Innovate HR
The Webby Awards are the leading international award honoring innovation and excellence on the internet. One can sign up to for emails from them showing the latest and greatest innovations from around the web. I recently received an email detailing the services of a website/app called Moveline. Moveline is an innovative app designed to simplify the moving process. Using one’s smartphone the user is able to either film the house/apartment and submit the video or have a live video chat with a representative. Moveline reviews the items filmed and returns an inventory list simplifying the moving process. Moveline will also secure quotes from competing moving companies for your business and if desired assign a representative to confirm the movers, adjust the plans and be your point of contact for the move.
Detailing one’s possessions, while a necessary task, can be labor intensive and time consuming. HR leaders and professionals are often in the same boat. Finding innovative solutions and technologies to simplify and streamline daily administration tasks can free up time to pursue more strategic pursuits. For someone relocating for a job, the physical shifting of belongings is important but often the person moving has a lot more on their mind like finding a new home, a new school for children, new jobs for spouses, etc. In HR innovating and automating processes can free time to form better connections with employees increasing engagement, more time to focus on development programs, or ensure stronger succession planning.
