NEW: ✨ Amplify Community Wisdom ✨
The Amplify Accelerator community was specifically designed to help modern operators expand their networks, thinking, and connections. Each week, I'll spotlight a helpful thread from the community to help newsletter subscribers learn from the discussions.
As many of you may be evaluating your HR tech stack in the new year, I wanted to share this thread in case it's helpful from a benchmarking and evaluation standpoint.
Q1: What is everyone's HRTech Stack looking like this year and are you making any changes for 2022?

A5: Thanks to everyone for sharing. I just had a call with https://diversio.com/ and for anyone looking to collect data around diversity AND inclusion, it looks like an amazing tool. Once they collect data they give you recommendations on how to improve your policies and culture to increase inclusion for specific groups within your organization. All backed by academic research. If I can squeeze it into my budget this year I will be adding this to our meager tech stack to ensure we are growing in the right way over the next few years (edited)
