HR Analytics: does the reality live up to the hype?
Analytics is emerging as the next big trend for the HR function and is seeing a lot of interest. However, is all this hype justified and can HR analytics propel the function forward and add value to the organisation? Listen to CRF's webinar to learn what analytics can really deliver for HR and to learn more about the current trend.
Analytics is the identification, interpretation and communication of meaningful patterns in data. Since organisations have started to apply analytics to business data, it also became a prominent topic area within the HR community offering significant improvements in recruitment, performance and talent management, workforce planning and employee engagement. But are these claims justified?
This Corporate Research Forum (CRF) webinar explored the current trends within HR analytics and considers the following questions:
- can analytics be successfully applied to HR systems and processes?
- what are the success factors in deploying HR analytics?
- what are the business benefits of using analytics in HR, if any?
- what are the current trends in the use of people analytics?
- how are other organisations using HR analytics and what business problems are they solving?
Who is it for?
If you are an HR Director, or a functional HR specialist looking to begin your journey in HR analytics, or if you are looking to review the progress your organisation has already made, this will be a perfect place to start. While aimed at HR professionals interested in people analytics, this webinar will be valuable to anyone with a general interest in HR Analytics.
