SumTotal Chief Marketing Officer Holly Rollo said, “As the foundation of SumTotal’s Talent Expansion™ strategy and applications, elixHR delivers pervasive learning, integrated talent management, and workforce capabilities across internal and external systems and applications. It enables a context-aware user experience to ensure that employees have immediate access to the tools they need to be better at their jobs while they are doing them.”
The elixHR™ Platform was named Top HR Product for 2013 by Human Resource Executive Magazine editors and is drawing praise from customers like Praxair and Misys who are using it to transform the way they approach human capital management and drive business results.
“MiCareer has already shown itself to be truly transformational. As our leadership team communicates organizational and business goals through the HR system, staff are building a bottom-up picture of how they will contribute towards the overall big picture and how they need to develop their skills in order to meet their career aspirations. This top-down, bottom-up approach is starting to see the emergence of a high-performing, engaged organization ready to support the ambitious and aspirational business targets we have set ourselves for the next few years.” – Charlotte DeMetz, Misys global head of HR (view case study)
