Layperson's Guide to Talent Analytics: An Approach to Improved Measurement and Insights (Room Venetian Ballroom C & D)

As the scope of human capital management continues to expand, HR leaders are doing their best to stay abreast of rapidly changing best practices. Many are inspired to try new methods and tactics, and to invest in new technologies and services. But there’s one obstacle few have overcome: the ability to monitor, measure and optimize for impact. This lack of insight into what's working and what's not undermines forward-thinking talent leaders' efforts to evolve and adapt. Without effective measurement practices, analyzing, reporting on and optimizing for modern HCM practices is next to impossible. Fortunately, success in talent analytics is not an all-or-nothing proposition. In this quick-fire session, Lisa Rowan and Kyle Lagunas will present a straightforward approach to becoming the kind of analytics playmaker your organization needs, including four commonsense tenets that drive the most effective measurement practices, and five analytics "on-ramps" that will take you out of the dark and on the path to greatness.
