There’s no getting around it. You’ve been given a mandate to streamline labor costs and meet current compliance regulations. Sounds great, only you have a dozen different shift and union variables that span multiple business units. Your workforce management software isn’t configured to meet this tall directive. You need additional resources and you need them like yesterday.

It’s our own unofficial study, but we are going to put it out there: We believe that 100% of Porsche owners would prefer to drive in the fast lane over the school zone on any given day.

Improving your productivity. If you're a manager, these goals are top of mind when it comes to implementing or upgrading a Workforce Management (WFM) platform. But what you may not be focused on during this major internal change is the emotional undercurrent among employees in response to that change.
