Technology is playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of HR. Yet, according to the 2025 SHRM State of the Workplace Report, only 43% of HR professionals and executives rated their organization’s HR technology as effective. This statistic illustrates a gap between the potential of HR tools and their practical application within HR functions.
To explore the opportunities and challenges of HR technology, a panel of experts in tech solutions shared insights and shed light on key trends transforming the field during the session “Shaping Tomorrow’s HR: A Thought Leadership Panel on Emerging HR Tech Solutions” at SHRM25 in San Diego. Tech trends such as leveraging artificial intelligence for improved interconnectivity, prioritizing employee experience, and balancing technology with return on investment (ROI) present clear pathways for HR leaders to make a lasting impact within their organizations.
