It looks like James Seller will be joining our next team call to discuss the new expense policy for 2015, and I am reminded that I still need to go in and update my profile.
I don’t know James Seller, but I would like to learn more about him before the team meeting. I haven’t updated my personal information before, but I heard from a co-worker that it was really easy… I’ll see about that! Before I leave here I’ll make a quick comment on the conversation.

I can configure my Favorites menu to reflect what I do the most in the application.
% Employees are key to transformation and they need to adapt to the new system or nothing else can change. The main concerns with adoption are ease of use and delivering value to the user so they want to adopt the new modern system.
% In working with our customers and partners it was eye opening to identify that the most commonly used self service transaction was actually the Company Directory. One customer, during validation said, “I enroll in benefits once a year but I rarely go a day without looking someone up in the directory.”
Take for example Activision Publishing -- The largest, most profitable pure-play interactive entertainment software publisher in the world. Based in Santa Monica, California, it operates in sixteen countries with more than 7,000 employees worldwide. They were able to excite and engage employees using Oracle HCM Cloud.
[Click Directory]
The directory is a very powerful access to employee information and hierarchical links.
[Enter Robert Jackman in the search field]
[Click Robert Jackman in suggestion list]
Here is a summary of Robert Jackman’s information.
This view shows the hierarchy that I belong to in the organization.
% The user experience is the same across platforms, so you can view this on any mobile device with the same experience.
For each person, I can see a contact card. On the top of the screen I get the global hierarchy line.
[Click Brian Joseph’s card]
I want to find out about Brian Joseph before our next team call.
By clicking on Brian’s name, I access his detailed information.
Here I can see contact and public information about Brian Joseph including where he works and his interests and areas of expertise.
I see his contact details and that he works in Atlanta, as well as his Manager and Peers in the organization. Because there is a rich Collaborative capability throughout Oracle HCM Cloud all I have to do is click on the email address or phone number and I can communicate through that media immediately and in context of what I am doing.
While in here, I remember that I had a clarifying question regarding expense reporting that I want to send to Brian prior to the team meeting.
I didn’t have to leave the application to send my communication to Brian, which keeps me in the context of what I am doing and focused on my task at hand. The system doesn’t care what I use for an email client; it simply opens the window appropriately for me to proceed.
[Click Provide Feedback button]
In HCM Cloud, any employee or manager that you have worked with, or who does know you, can enter a feedback on your profile.
These feedback can either be public and posted to everyone, or restricted to the employee and their manager.
It is a very efficient way to receive continuous feedback on your work. It’s also a good way to get information on new colleagues.
[Click Home icon]
