Ensure That Workforce Data Translates Into Organizational Change

Next up at the Workforce Planning Conference we have Jeremy Shapiro, author of the Ultimate Performance, and SVP of Hodes IQ.  Jeremy examines the main obstacles faced in leveraging human capital insights into organizational change.  There is a significant gap between having HR Analytics and using HR Analytics to create change inside of the organization.

How much can you trust your data? If the data in HR isn’t trustworthy, you can’t translate it into organizational change.  Where is the data coming from — is there human error involved? You should use the data that you have right now, but use it better and you will gain new insights.  Watch for common mistakes in your data that discredits your efforts.  Use the economic slowdown for your advantage– leverage the time that you may have for your advantage.  Use standardized measurements and make your data trustworthy!  All of these can factor into organizational change.
