Connecting People and Performance
Connecting People and Performance
Most companies have accumulated a surfeit of workforce data: current and historic employees’ data, data from employees’ engagement surveys, customer satisfaction data and other business KPIs such as productivity, performance, sales, etc. Yet, but only few can make extensive use of data to drive human capital management decisions. Therefore, this course provides the participants with a deep understanding of the nature of human capital analytics and a toolkit - via practical exercises - on how to do that.
Course Content
A recent study by Deloitte found that only 10% of companies are using analytics to solve talent challenges and only 4% are using analytics to predict and forecast future talent needs and outcomes. Why so? In addition to the need of owning Big Data of a reasonable quality, developing a solid ground for evidence-based decisions requires having the right people – true change agents with strategic mindset, advanced analytical skills, and scientific rigor in modeling and interpretation of the results.
Therefore, our goal is to equip the participants with capabilities to measure the impact of human capital on achievement of business goal and based on this to make evidence-based decisions.
The following topics will be covered during the course:
· State-of-the art research on linking people to performance
· The power of human capital analytics for the performance of the firm
· Tools for analytics (crash course in basic statistics)
· Tools for how to get executive buy in
· How to go from data to analytics – to influence strategic decision making
· How to work with company data – both small and big data
· How to interpret the results and implement the change that results from the analytics initiative

Testimonials
“It was, for me, the right course to attend at the right time. Our team is in the midst of evolving and expanding services, from offering primarily HR ‘reporting’ to include also ‘analytics’. The course helped me reflect and gain important insight about the analytics value proposition, where to focus our efforts, and which capabilities are needed to execute on our future plans.”
