People Analytics—HR’s New Tool to Compete and Win
Description:
People Analytics is different from the “human resources” practices prevalent twenty years ago. Today it incorporates a data-driven, evidence-based approach to managing people at work. Those working in People Analytics strive to bring data and sophisticated analysis to bear on people-related issues, such as recruiting, performance evaluation, leadership, hiring and promotion, managing teams, and compensation. In this workshop, participants will engage with evidence suggesting that doing so sustains competitive advantage and improves firm performance (revenue, stock price, customer satisfaction, retention, and safety). They will learn how this approach can help achieve organizational strategic goals.
