Most HR leaders are not walking into these decisions unprepared. They are walking in prepared for the wrong thing. HR strategy and technology buying are not the same discipline. One is about people and policy.

When an HR tech rollout fails, the software usually gets the blame. But in most organizations, the real issue is not the platform. It is alignment. Leadership, HR, managers, and operations are often not aligned on what the system is supposed to solve or how it will be used. Until that changes, even the best technology will underperform.
