Impact Through People Analytics

HR is under increasing pressure to demonstrate business impact. Taking an analytical approach and using evidence, rather than relying on ‘gut instinct’ alone, is a significant opportunity for HR to make an impact on business performance. The HR function has access to more data than ever before, and using it can help to build credibility, improve the quality of decision-making, engage employees, and optimise the impact of business and people-based processes. And, while AI is not changing people analytics yet, it is a factor we should consider.

About this Programme

Based on Dave Millner’s experience and CRF’s ongoing research into people analytics, this programme aims to take a commercial, HR-centric view of data and analytics, assisting HR practitioners in how to leverage data to deliver tangible business impact. It is not about turning HR people into data scientists but about giving participants the confidence to work with data, not just to drive better reporting, but to provide more persuasive analysis that ensures HR is making a real impact on business performance.

Who Should Attend?

The programme is aimed at HR Business Partners and HR Directors, as well as heads of shared services or heads of a centre of expertise/excellence. It is aimed at helping HR professionals understand how analytics can help them move beyond gut instinct to diagnose the real issues and facilitate the delivery of high-impact solutions.
