goHappy, the leader in app-free frontline employee engagement technology, today announced the launch of Smart Reply, a new controlled two-way messaging solution that enables employers to collect instant responses from their frontline teams without the chaos of traditional group texts.
With Smart Reply, employers can send messages that include interactive questions directly to frontline employees via text message. Employees can respond with a simple yes/no, multiple choice answer, text response, or even a photo – all while employers maintain complete visibility and control over the conversation.
Smart Reply transforms common workplace scenarios that previously required group texts, phone calls, or manual tracking. Need to fill an open shift? Ask who’s available with a yes/no question and instantly see all responses in one organized dashboard. Rolling out a new display or process? Request photos to verify compliance across all locations. Gathering quick feedback on a policy change? Get structured input without losing responses in cluttered message threads.
Because Smart Reply is built on goHappy’s text-based platform, every employee can participate: no app downloads, logins, or additional systems required. Responses are automatically organized, searchable, and actionable, with real-time notifications keeping managers informed as employees reply.
Korn Ferry (NYSE: KFY) today announced the launch of Korn Ferry Talent Suite—a first-of-its-kind technology platform, powered by 50 years of the firm’s proprietary performance IP and data. The new offering combines a powerful set of talent applications built on a single SaaS technology platform.
“Talent Suite is a substantial differentiator and will elevate our firm as we seamlessly bring the breadth and depth of our world-class talent capabilities and assets to global organizations,” said Mathias Herzog, President of Korn Ferry’s Global Technology Practice and Leader of the firm’s Digital Solution. “This new technology platform takes all of Korn Ferry’s foundational assets and solutions that permeate everything our firm offers and everything we know about people and makes it accessible for our clients and our consultants at scale.”
More than a delivery system, Talent Suite embeds Korn Ferry’s talent IP, data, advanced analytics and AI into client workflows and supports scalable, enterprise-wide deployment. Through Talent Suite, all of Korn Ferry’s products such as Architect, Assess, Pay, Recruit, Sell and more can be deployed in an organization’s environment through subscription- and license-based offerings. In addition, Talent Suite can be embedded broadly into Korn Ferry’s Solutions as the firm’s consultants work with global organizations to deliver engagements.
The new platform provides one clear view of people and how they impact business outcomes. Talent Suite ensures every talent decision is connected, grounded in science, and aligned to the outcomes that matter most to a business, eliminating the guesswork and bringing clarity to what’s working, what’s missing, and what to do next.
