Amplifying intelligence in total rewards
Total rewards teams already work with huge volumes of data to make informed decisions around compensation and benefits. Amplified intelligence happens when artificial intelligence (AI) bridges gaps in our knowledge to stimulate new standards of work quality, decision-making and value creation. As AI advances, leading firms are experimenting with amplified intelligence, such as:
-
Predictive performance analytics
-
Pay equity and transparency
-
Rewards and recognition
-
Executive compensation
