The "Kronos Guy" Blog

No doubt there’s a lot about Kronos’ new Workforce Dimensions platform that’s grabbed our attention; some of which we outlined last week. But a few of the features that stand out the most in making the platform so powerful for users are its D5 cloud platform and the combination of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML).

Fear is a powerful thing. In business, fear can paralyze and pin us to the status quo. And other times, fear can make us storm into the future with both barrels. Without a doubt, Kronos chose the latter to help fuel its development of Workforce Dimensions, a next-generation Workforce Management (WFM) software that’s positioned to be an industry game changer. 

It’s not your imagination. Everything about the workforce is changing at warp speed. Millennials — the twenty-something generation of employees now pouring into the workforce — accomplish their work differently and managers are expected to create work environments that echo these changes. Millennials are tech-savvy multi-taskers redefining the way we work. They value flexibility over job security and collaboration over solo problem solving. They prefer (whenever possible) to chuck the cubicle and work remotely. Millennials expect their workplace and the technology in it to keep up with their needs and echo their lifestyle values.

Not all upgrades are created equal, and Kronos' Workforce Central 8.1 proves that. This specific upgrade  — based on customer feedback — is packed with tools designed to improve workflow and employee experience.
