HR Technology

Customers, colleagues, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and my writing day.

Customers, colleagues, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and my writing day.

By Thomas Otter on October 30, 2017

I have been spending the last few months deep in accessibility law, testing, standards, universal design, GDPR, the early history of business computing and of course my old friend, Sarbanes Oxley. I am an expert on Heidelberg and Sandton coffee shops, and I have spent far too long debating the value of one font over […]

5 years of conferences

Today is my last day at Gartner.

By Thomas Otter on May 10, 2013

Today is my last day at Gartner. The last 5 1/2 years have flown by. I have learnt more than I imagined I could, and probably forgotten more too. I’ve done over 3000 inquiries, written over 100 research notes, led several magic quadrants, attended 100s of Research communities, spoke at numerous conferences and strategy days. […]

The Emergence of Data Scientists

By Jason Corsello on December 5, 2012

  Every year around this time, I like to do a tour of companies, mostly startups, in Silicon Valley.  It’s a chance for me to get annual pulse on new trends in “the valley”. Silicon Valley is like no other place.  When I grew up there many years ago it was a much different place. […]

HR Tech in Chicago.

HR Tech in Chicago.

By Thomas Otter on August 7, 2012

Gosh. I’m very pleased, read ecstatic,  that I’m not going to Vegas for what seems like the 400th time.  I get to go to Chicago, Chicago, that wonderful town. For the past few years I’ve gone to HR tech I have managed to largely lurk in the background. This year I have a couple of speaking […]

Can Big Data Predict Your Future Stars?

Can Big Data Predict Your Future Stars?

By Jason Corsello on February 21, 2012

Interestingly, about 1 ½ years ago, the Hoops Analyst blog nearly predicted his imminent success. When analyzing his college performance, particularly 2-point field […]

Employee branding. Some assembly required.

Employee branding. Some assembly required.

By Thomas Otter on January 11, 2012
