The&#13;<br \/>\ndisconnect between talent touchpoints such as hiring, learning, performance,&#13;<br \/>\ncareer, succession planning, and engagement has never been more pronounced. HR&#13;<br \/>\ndigitalisation and HCM transformation, therefore, must be a part of an&#13;<br \/>\nenterprise-wide agenda for business viability, ensuring that one&#8217;s HR tech&#13;<br \/>\ninfrastructure provides strategic insights to key decision-makers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p><b>Employee engagement and collaboration platforms as differentiators in the&#13;<br \/>\ntalent war <\/b><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>There&#13;<br \/>\nhas been a surge in the demand for employee engagement and collaboration&#13;<br \/>\nplatforms since the outbreak of COVID-19, which makes RAMSSOL&#8217;s in-house mobile&#13;<br \/>\napplication, Feet&#8217;s, immediately relevant in today&#8217;s context of a hybrid,&#13;<br \/>\nmultigenerational and digitally-savvy workforce. As companies become more open&#13;<br \/>\nto adopting intelligent technologies and creating a best-in-class employee&#13;<br \/>\nexperience, the app enables connected, happier and productive workplaces by modernising&#13;<br \/>\ncommunications between employees.
