Emerging Technologies Transforming the HR Landscape | Chapter 28 | Leading the Charge: A Guide to Management, Entrepreneurship and Technology in the Dynamic Business Landscape Edition 1

The field of Human Resources has seen considerable changes due to the rapid growth of technology, which has transformed traditional HR methods and processes. In the framework of developing technologies like as chatbots, blockchain, augmented reality, virtual reality, robotic process automation, natural language processing, and artificial intelligence, this study examines the changing landscape of HR management. The first section of the article traces the development of HR technology. After that, it looks at how HR technology is now being adopted and highlights how upcoming technologies have the ability to completely change a range of HR operations. The article investigates the effects of emerging technologies on important HR tasks like hiring and talent acquisition, employee training and development, performance management and feedback, and employee engagement and experience through detailed scrutiny. While recognizing the potential that emerging technologies offer, the study also addresses the difficulties in implementing them. There is a need for more studies on the ethical implications of AI and the impact of various AI technologies for long-term sustainability could be the area of focus. Future directions for HR technology are covered in this study, along with its effects on the workplace. The significance of ongoing learning and adaptability for HR professionals is emphasized. It ends by highlighting how new technologies have the ability to completely change the HR environment and how businesses must embrace innovation in order to be competitive in the rapidly changing digital economy.

Trends in Emerging Technologies in the Cannabis Industry in South Africa | Chapter 6 | Managing Higher Education and Enterprises in Developing Countries Beyond COVID-19: Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Business and Management Dynamics

 This chapter focuses on analysing the trends, developments and innovations of emerging technologies in the South African cannabis industry.

The South African government has identified cannabis as one of the country`s strategic sectors for development and commercialisation in order to increase economic production, investment, diversification of the economy, poverty alleviation and job creation. Globally, emerging technologies are playing an important role in the cannabis industry in various ways, including monitoring of cannabis plants, and compliance and regulation. Outside of Africa, there is a considerable amount of literature on the potential, role and impact of emerging technologies on the cannabis industry. However, in Africa, there is a lack of research studies on emerging technologies and cannabis. The research gathers data from existing sources such as books, journals, reports, websites, databases, cases studies and other published materials to provide a landscape analysis of ICT-based emerging technologies being promoted, developed, deployed, adopted or used in the South African cannabis industry. Preliminary findings reveal that various types and examples of ICT-based emerging technologies targeted at different cannabis value chain stages exist in the country. This research is still at the preliminary stages; hence the author has presented the preliminary literature and preliminary findings. The author will conduct further literature analysis. The author will gather more data and information on the topic.
