Inside the Headlines  

The influence of technology on organizations of every sector and size has been accelerating over time. Companies are currently pairing their skipped workforce with non-imitable technologies for unlocking new social welfares, enhancing business value and transforming consumers’ lives. Notably, it is predicted that by 2020, almost 30% of industry sales will be generated from new technology-based business models.

Therefore, ManpowerGroup’s latest inventions — DigiQuotient and Zara the avatar — are anticipated to secure strong response from the market.

Zara the avatar, buttressed by artificial intelligence, will call for scientifically authenticated questions, established by the company’s Right Management leadership and career experts. On the other hand, DigiQuotient will map collective characteristics with prominent leaders, on grounds of Organizational and Industrial Psychology.
