Topic Background:
To be ahead of the game, HR professionals need to look out the rear view mirror and the windshield. Keeping track of employee turnover and absenteeism are examples of HR metrics, not HR analytics. Metrics are data based on historical performance and are useful in measuring progress, but they do little to help you make decisions that will change the future.
This workshop will teach participants how to identify the key human metrics and drivers to measure and improve HR and business performance.
Based on the tenant that “one cannot improve what one does not measure”, metrics are very useful in establishing a baseline and measuring improvement. But, selecting the right metrics is key. Do you really want to increase the speed of hiring new people? It is a worthy goal but, if it results in the selection of poor quality new-hires, you will have won the battle and lost the war. This seminar will help you select powerful metrics that are tailored to your organization and geared toward improving business and HR performance.
Beyond metrics, this seminar will focus on micro variables that predict high performance. HR Analytics is the use of data to explain why some workers are high performing, what truly motivates people to work harder, what training courses deliver the most value to the Company and much more.
HR professionals have powerful intuitions and strong hunches, but to “sell” their ideas, they need data to back them up. This Seminar will help HR professionals test hypotheses and make a “business case” for their ideas.
Today, HR leaders can easily use technology to develop analytics and make key predictive decisions.
