People are Money - HR Upgrades Launches Revolutionary Business Simulation Game SolarHR
LONDON, October 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
State of the Art Business Simulation Technology set to Capture the Monetary Value of
Human CapitalÂ
Did you get a fair shot the last time you attended a job interview? Chances are that
you didn't.
A poll conducted this month with a selection of HR professionals from our LinkedIn
group HR Jobs and Ideas revealed that 74% of HR professionals believe that most hiring
managers are not adequately prepared to comprehensively assess candidates' technical and
soft skills.
The Economist has called unsuccessful hiring "the single biggest problem in business
today".
HR Upgrades (http://www.hrupgrades.com [http://www.hrupgrades.com ]) aims to improve this
state of affairs with SolarHRTM, an online Business Simulation Game specifically designed
to improve companies' ability to get it right when hiring new people or developing talent
from within their ranks.
While simulation games are a well-established, learn-by-doing, training methodology
routinely used by all sorts of organizations, SolarHRTM is revolutionary in being able to
model how individual technical competences and soft skills come together in teams to drive
business performance.
"Academia has been developing business simulation algorithms for years, however our
simulation engine is particularly adept at capturing the monetary value of human capital",
says Professor Gianpaolo Iazzolino, one of the lead Management Engineers behind SolarHRTM.
Showing how directly the human element impacts cash-flows is critical for convincing
organizations to go beyond paying lip service about their people being a strategic asset.
According to 94.7% of the HR professionals who took part in the survey, organizations
will need to go on liberating the full creative and productive potential of their people,
if they are to remain competitive in today's knowledge economy. "Employers need to
re-evaluate their current training and development programmes to ensure in-house expertise
is being effectively shared at every level of the business" concludes Alison Micklem, Head
of Communication at HR Upgrades.
SolarHRTM scenarioÂ
Your company has decided to start a spin-off business unit for the production of solar
panels. This isn't a charity operation - the CEO tasks you with setting up a top team.
