Our Mission: HR as a Key Driver of Business Outcomes

ClayHR's mission is to empower organizations to drive exceptional business outcomes by transforming HR into a strategic powerhouse, optimizing talent, and igniting workforce potential through an intelligent, integrated human capital management platform.

Within this mission, we recognize 4 core components of HR:

HR drives key business outcomes: HR drives key business outcomes by aligning talent management strategies with organizational goals, ensuring that the right people are in the right roles and working on the right initiatives to maximize productivity. HR's focus on continuous learning and development equips employees with the necessary skills to adapt to changing business environments, driving innovation and long-term success.

HR experience is broad: From Hi to Hire to Retire, there is a lot in between.  So, HR is broad by its very definition and will remain so for a long time (at least until the robots replace us).  ClayHR aspires to be comprehensive, well integrated, and to serve as the base HR application framework.

HR experience is varied: Every company is unique.  There are no “set choices”.  Everything is configurable.  To start a company and to configure your HR processes can (and does!) take some thinking. However, once it is done, the experience is likely unique to your organization.  Your HR software should make that experience seamless.

HR experience is diverse: The users, end customers and partners in the HR processes come from many different backgrounds and ability levels.  Some people have memorized the time off manuals of their state, and read regulatory notes for bedtime reading. Others live and breathe workflows and business process automation. And still others think of their involvement with HR as pressing a green button on a tablet in the morning and a red button in the evening.  Each of them brings a unique perspective to HR, and needs a seamless experience.  It is our job to provide them with that experience, even within this diversity of expectations and needs.
