 LEHRN is a professional community sharing knowledge and experience on the successful alignment of Human Resources/Human Capital Management (HR/HCM) and talent management information systems to support best business practices.
Members at all points on the implementation cycle participate to learn and contribute to understanding how to manage the five perspectives that drive HR systems: People, Process, Technology, Structure, & Culture. Through regular meetings, LEHRN promotes a clearer picture of the marketplace of Human Capital Management Systems (HCMS) vendors and products and creates a professional business network concerned with each company’s successful investment of financial and human capital in HR tools and technology. We are a local affiliate of International Human Resource Information Management (IHRIM).
