The HR Trend Institute is building a catalogue of innovative and useful HR solutions. The focus will be on HR Tech. Out of scope for the moment: the big HR systems. The catalogue will be very subjective, and we will focus on solutions which we like and find promising. The HR Trend Institute is independent, and suppliers do not pay the institute to appear in the catalogue.
Suggestions are most welcome, please mail Tom Haak at tom@hrtrendinstitute.com.

Today a first glimpse into the catalogue. The list per category is in alphabetical order.

The catalogue is divided in the following categories:

• General HR Systems
• Recruitment & Selection
• Onboarding
• Feedback/ Surveys
• Teamwork
• Network Mapping
• Learning
• Payroll
• People Analytics
