Human capital analytics has been touted as the next big frontier in human resources for years, and yet according to recent research, only about 16 to 20 percent of companies say they are even attempting it. Whether you have started your journey (or are still deciding if you need to), this Spotlight webinar with Jodi Crawford, human resources quality and analytics leader of Westfield Group, will provide one company’s story so far, including the challenges it encountered along the way.
During this webinar attendees will hear:
How Westfield Insurance has approached its human capital analytics roadmap.
Challenges you are likely to face in launching an HR analytics function within your organization.
Lessons learned the hard way and recognizing the small wins.
The Datafication of HR in 2016: Graduating From Metrics to AnalyticsHuman Capital Media
With recent articles like Harvard Business Review’s “It’s Time to Split HR,” written by world-renowned business adviser and author Ram Charan, and Bersin Insights’ “Will HR Lose the Battle Over Analytics,” written by industry analyst Karen O’Leonard, 2016 represents a pivotal year for human resources.
The global economic recovery, compounded by demographic shifts, is moving power from employers to employees, turning labor into a seller’s market. As a result, the workforce is becoming an increasingly core strategic consideration to businesses. Yet the most commonly monitored workforce metrics do very little to deliver true insight into workforce topics. Leaders need to graduate from metrics to analytics, surfacing the important connections and patterns in their data to make better workforce decisions.
Join expert Dave Weisbeck as he discusses how HR can play a more critical role driving business performance than ever before. In this informative webinar, Weisbeck will discuss how you can graduate from metrics to analytics, ramping up from operational reporting to strategic analytics and planning.
In this session, participants will learn:
Trends shaping the datafication of HR, including the case for and against splitting HR.
How HR can climb the workforce intelligence maturity curve, defining key terms and concepts.
The future of HR as a strategic advisor, with examples of how to graduate from metrics to analytics in: Recruiting effectiveness, Performance management, Talent retention, Comp and benefits, and Workforce costs
Common pitfalls to avoid.
Copy of a presentation delivered at the 3rd HR Analytics, Metrics and Measurement Conference, sharing some of the key lessons, tips and mistakes I have learned during two decades managing Human Resources, Workforce Planning and HR Analytics programs.
This is a presentation that I gave recently to a group of over 300 HR recruiting professionals at a large consulting company. Thought it might be of help to others.
Building for the future: Why predictive analytics matter nowWilliam Gaker
The field of people analytics is growing rapidly, but the majority of teams have been started within the last 5 years. As the field continues to grow, there is a need for a unified vision across the field for what the end product looks like. It is crucial to build a vision for your team centered around predictive analytics as you lay the foundation in the early days of your team. A unified team vision will give you a greater impact by creating role clarity, prioritizing your efforts, and building you brand within your organization.
A Playbook for Diversity Analytics and Strategy DevelopmentWilliam Gaker
Diversity and Inclusion is an increasingly important topic for organizations; however, these initiatives are often misaligned across HR functions and not designed to address specific gaps.
This presentation makes the case that organizations should view the workforce as an integrated systems, use analytics to identify gaps in diversity, and create holistic strategies to address those gaps.
Campus placements are a logistical nightmare for those who have to plan and organize it. And the focus on logistics might lead to losing sight of the most important goal, the quality of hire. Campus Hiring is long term investment and it is critical to find candidates that are a right fit.

The latest study from the ADP Research Institute® presents key considerations for leaders to keep pace with the rapidly changing needs of a global workforce.
People Analytics: Improving the Employee Experience and ProductivityDr Susan Entwisle
It is true today more than any point in history that talent is a company’s greatest asset. To thrive in our hyper competitive global economy, companies need the right talent to deliver exceptional customer experiences efficiently with minimal risk. Traditionally, Human Resource teams have made decisions on hiring, assigning and developing employees using experience, instinct, and basic statistical data. The same advanced analytics and machine learning techniques we use to improve the customer experience are now being used for our people. People analytics provides insights and enables better and faster data-driven decision making across all aspects of people at work.
Topics covered in this presentation include:
How analytics has changed the customer experience.
Current state of employee engagement and its impact.
Limitations of cognitive decision making process.
What is people analytics?
How companies are using people analytics today?
Challenges in adoption of people analytics.
Guidance to get started on people analytics journey.
PREPARING FOR COMPLIANCE CHANGES UNDER A NEW ADMINISTRATIONHuman Capital Media
With a new U.S. presidential administration still in its early stages, there are likely to be upcoming regulatory changes that could affect your organization’s compliance strategy. What should you be doing now to prepare for potential changes, and how should you plan to manage compliance once changes take effect? There’s no room for error when adhering to compliance rules — especially those associated with the Fair Labor Standards Act, paid sick leave, and joint employer regulations.
By investing in fully automated workforce management processes rather than having a hodgepodge of manual and partially automated solutions, organizations can better predict risk, provide solutions to mitigate existing risk, and create effective communication to employees of pending or existent changes labor laws and regulations — enabling them to minimize risk, improve productivity, and enhance employee engagement.
Cliff Stevenson, principal analyst at Brandon Hall Group, will be joined by Kronos® Director of Product Marketing Kristen Wylie to outline how your organization can build a stronger compliance strategy. You’ll get valuable information on:
How your organization’s level of readiness compares to that of your peers amid changes in administration and policies
Minimizing risk through technology and automation
Finding your organization on the compliance climate matrix and learning real-world next steps
The Datafication of HR: How to Go from So What to Now WhatHuman Capital Media
More and more large organizations are creating teams of experts who specialize in workforce analytics, and for good reason. Research has shown that companies that put workforce intelligence to work profoundly improve their business results - seeing higher margins, better stock performance, and improved return on equity.
But frustratingly, the data-driven HR mindset has been slow to grow within organizations beyond HR analysts -- who typically serve a constrained number of leaders with data and insights. Josh Bersin of Bersin by Deloitte aptly said that most HR organizations are “stuck in neutral” with workforce analytics. Given its importance, how can you extend the mindset to bring value to the entire HR team and the organization?
In this webinar, analytics expert Ian Cook will take you through the ways that you can:
Give HRBPs the tools they need to be strategic by enabling them with guided, self-service analytics
Extend datafication to business leaders by connecting workforce metrics to the business results they care about
Build a data-driven mindset and skillset throughout your HR team
Powering Productivity and Potential: Learning Trends in 2016Human Capital Media
A number of factors point to the need for a reassessment of — and recommitment to — organizational learning and development this year: low unemployment, high disengagement, plateaued productivity, flat compensation budgets and expected difficulties with workforce retention.
Simply put, businesses will have to do more to build skills and capability from within their organizations while balancing the shift from traditional learning tools and techniques to new technologies such as social, mobile and video.
Join our guest speaker Christa Degnan Manning, principal analyst at workforce support research firm Eudemonia, to learn more about the key trends affecting organizational learning and development in 2016.
The webinar will cover:
The top five trends that factor into 2016 being the “Year of Enablement.”
Key data and statistics to help learning leaders build the business case and sense of urgency for rethinking their learning strategies.
Examples of each trend in action — with existing and expected results from real organizations.
The Datafication of HR: Graduating from Metrics to AnalyticsVisier
Datafication is a new term used to describe the process of turning an existing business into a “data business.” In HR it refers to our increasing ability to use Talent Analytics to understand more and more about our people, HR practices and processes, and external demographics.
Global competition for talent, outsourcing labor, compliance legislation, remote workers, aging populations – these are just a few of the daunting challenges faced by HR organizations today. Yet the most commonly monitored workforce metrics do very little to deliver true insight into these topics. Leaders need to graduate from metrics to analytics, surfacing the important connections and patterns in their data to make better workforce decisions.
Learn the difference between metrics and analytics, as well as key analytics and their values in these core areas:
Recruiting Effectiveness
Performance
Talent Retention
Employee Movement
Total Rewards
The challenges in today’s business environment require new approaches to remain competitive in an ever-shrinking world of global competition. By graduating from metrics to analytics, HR professionals and leaders can better understand the contributing factors that are impacting their organization, and take the right actions to implement programs that will provide a true competitive advantage.

Case Study: Building a Culture of Analytics in HR at MicronHuman Capital Media
Supporting 30,000 employees worldwide, the Workforce Information team at Micron Technology Inc. has a clear vision: When someone thinks of analytics at Micron, they want that person to think of HR. For most companies today, that seems a tall order to fulfill. And with Micron’s highly technical staff of more than 10,000 engineers, it was a particularly bold aspiration. Over the past two years Micron’s Workforce Information team, working within the HR department, has made significant progress in achieving that goal.
Since implementing Visier Workforce Analytics in late 2013, Micron’s Workforce Information team has rolled out self-service analytics to more than 150 HR leaders and business partners and more than 800 business-area managers globally. As a result, Micron is uncovering new workforce insights that can be used to make decisions that are closely linked to business performance.
For more than 30 years, Micron’s teams of dreamers, visionaries and scientists have redefined innovation — designing and building some of the world’s most advanced memory and semiconductor technologies.
Join 2014 Brandon Hall Excellence in Technology award-winner Tim Long, director of Workforce Information at Micron, as he discusses his team’s journey in enabling HR to “demand evidence and think critically.”
Long will share his team’s experience:
Developing global standards for workforce data.
Implementing a highly scalable solution for workforce analytics on demand.
Fostering a data-driven culture within HR.
Leveraging workforce analytics in HR processes, such as compensation reviews..

READY FOR TOMORROW: HARNESSING THE POWER OF DIGITAL FOR WORKFORCE TRANSFORMATIONHuman Capital Media
Digital transformation is happening everywhere and has left many organizations asking, how can we better support and enable workers with better learning experiences? As the demands of the workforce continue to shift, a new model of learning is emerging where content is curated and the users drive the experience. Join MetLife’s VP of Vice President, Workforce Enablement, Global Technology & Operations, Kate Day, as she shares how MetLife is innovating for a new generation of workers.
In this session, you’ll learn:
A new digital learning paradigm.
Operational lessons learned.
How to engage workers with an integrated learning experience
Sarah Brennan, Principal Consultant, Talent Acquisition at Cornerstone OnDemand, provides easy-to-understand insights on:
o Evolution of the role of recruiting in business from reactive to strategic partners
o How a unified approach to looking at talent acquisition can benefit core HR and business drivers
o The impact employment branding and candidate experience have on influencing employee engagement and retention (and vice versa)
In the fast-changing world of corporate recruiting, it’s important to be aware of and prepared for the problems and opportunities that you will soon face. In short, because it’s “better to be prepared than surprised”, both recruiting and hiring managers must find a way to be “proactive” in planning for these upcoming events, rather than being “reactive”. The most effective way to identify trends and to predict upcoming recruiting issues is through the use of analytics and predictive metrics This advanced webinar will be led by long time ERE.net author and global metrics expert Dr. John Sullivan. He will guide you through the goals, the action steps and the best emerging corporate practices in predictive recruiting metrics.

Workforce Intelligence: How HR Can Make Data-Driven Decisions That Move the N...Human Capital Media
The idea of data-driven HR has been a top topic and trend for several years now, yet the vast majority of HR organizations are still underserved with insights. While many organizations are thinking about workforce analytics, few have truly put them to work. Indeed, as Josh Bersin of Bersin by Deloitte aptly described, most HR organizations are “stuck in neutral” with workforce analytics, unsure how to get started with this complex topic.
How can you get out of neutral with workforce analytics? How can you and your organization overcome the data hurdles and technical complexity -- despite having little or no experience in analytics? How can you get to workforce insights that will help you understand with precision what it takes to recruit, retain, and motivate the best workforce -- and drive measurable business outcomes?
In this webinar, analytics expert Ian Cook will provide direct examples of you can take to:
Improve recruitment success and more efficiently find expertise needed at the right time for the best price.
Retain star performers more cost effectively.
Connect employee engagement to business outcomes.
Decode workforce planning and understand the “cost” side of the workforce.
The Datafication of HR: Building your Business Case for Workforce Analytics a...Human Capital Media
How can you build a business case to get your workforce analytics initiative funded this year, not this decade? And why should you care?
It is commonly understood that companies with workforce analytics capabilities outperform their peers in quality of hire, retention and leadership capabilities. Yet, recent research by Harvard Business Review has found a large gap between what companies expect from human resources — data-driven insight and action —and the capabilities that are necessary to deliver it.
In fact, Deloitte University Press’ Global Human Capital Trends report found that although 75 percent of companies believe workforce analytics is important, only 8 percent believe their company is “strong” in this area — almost the same results as their 2014 survey.
HR expert Josh Bersin has coined the term “stuck in neutral” to describe HR’s slow adoption of workforce analytics. Why is this? Why does it matter? And what can you do to accelerate your movement toward data-driven HR?
In this webinar, analytics expert Dave Weisbeck will discuss:
The drivers behind the datafication of HR.
How to build a business case for workforce analytics.
Examples of workforce analytics at work.

As a result, the workforce is increasingly a core strategic consideration and top concern of the C-suite. Yet the most commonly monitored talent metrics do very little to deliver true insight into the workforce and its impact on the business–and Talent Management’s readiness to report more than basic metrics remains a serious issue.
Talent Management needs to graduate from metrics to people analytics–from information that only guides tactics to insights that drive strategy–and discover the important connections and patterns in their data that enable better workforce decisions. Join expert Dave Weisbeck as he discusses how Talent Management can use people analytics to achieve strategic excellence and play a more critical role in driving business performance than ever before.
In this informative webinar, Dave will show you how to transform your Talent Management, ramping up from basic operational reporting to strategic people analytics and workforce planning.
Topics will include:
Global and technological trends shaping the Datafication of Talent Management
How Talent Management can move up the people analytics maturity curve
What impact the advent of the people strategy platform plays in analytics maturity
Practical examples of how to graduate from metrics to people analytics in:
Recruiting Effectiveness
Performance Management
Talent Retention
Comp & Benefits
Workforce Costs
Common pitfalls to avoid with people analytics
Register for this engaging webinar to learn the ins and outs of the datafication of Talent Management and what impact it has your organization.
The Future of Employee Engagement: HR’s Critical Role in Driving Business Out...Human Capital Media
In today’s era of big data and mobile apps, the engagement technology landscape is being rapidly disrupted by startups offering solutions for weekly employee “pulse” surveys and continuous 360-degree feedback. These apps overcome a major flaw in traditional annual engagement surveys: They provide companies with an up-to-date measure of engagement and how it is changing. However, they do not solve the ultimate challenge of understanding what actually engages, motivates and retains an employee.
In the next few years, employee engagement will evolve dramatically. In an era of big data and mobile apps, the employee engagement revolution presents both enormous promise and, if not managed right, pain to HR. Join workforce analytics expert Dave Weisbeck as he examines this important topic.
In this webinar, analytics expert Dave Weisbeck will explore:
The global workforce trends driving the need for a more engaged and productive workforce than ever before.
HR’s critical role in connecting organizational innovation to technology innovation to achieve better performance.
The intersection of leadership, culture, and engagement.
The past, present, and future of measuring and understanding workforce engagement.
Practical examples of how to uncover insights that move the needle for the business.
Recruiting is arguably the HR function with highest visibility across every organization. Talent acquisition remains an ever-present concern for business leaders who risk declines in productivity if they can't fill their talent pipeline. To ensure success, HR teams need be vigilant about measuring the effectiveness of the hiring process.
But that's easier said than done. While plenty of applicant tracking systems and other recruiting tools are set up to report on hiring activities, rates, and costs, they typically stop tracking applicants as soon as they're hired. Because of that crucial limitation—and because data about the long-term performance of the workforce inevitably lives in a vast array of disconnected systems—measuring the lasting impact of the recruiting process becomes a daunting, insurmountable task.
Join workforce expert Ian Cook or this one-hour session to learn how talent acquisition teams can get past those hurdles to uncover insights from beyond their ATS that will help them:
Discover which hiring activities improve quality of hire across the full employee lifecycle
Optimize the recruiting process to target and hire candidates proven to have the best business impact over the long term
Create more accurate hiring plans that draw on historical rates for turnover and hiring success
Choose the right mix of FTE, agency, and RPO recruiting by comparing costs over time for each option

Learning and Business Impact: Making the Case through Metrics and AnalyticsTuan Yang
Showing the effect of a solitary learning investment is easy. Answering the broader question of “What impact is L&D having on the business?” is tough. In this Presentation, you'll learn to guide assessment, evaluation and measurement strategies that provide data to help executives understand the impact of employee learning on business performance.
Unleashing the Power of Analytics: Driving Performance at the Intersection of...Human Capital Media
Performance analytics is a data-driven approach used to optimize how organizations manage and deploy learning and development that supports execution of business strategy. How are learning organizations today using data? How do they define and determine relevant analytics? Is there a critical shortage of analytics skills in the learning function? What outcomes are organizations realizing from their efforts when deploying performance analytics to drive learning and development (L&D)? Finally, how do we link learning analytics and business analytics to produce performance data that really deliver results?
In this session, we will share the results of a proprietary research conducted with hundreds of CLOs , in partnership with Human Capital Media, that delved into these questions… and more. We will shed light on best practices being employed and the challenges for learning leaders.

Workforce Intelligence: How HR Can Make Data-Driven Decisions That Optimize T...Human Capital Media
For the past several years, workforce analytics have been “in neutral.” Meaning, there are a lot of organizations thinking about workforce analytics, but few are truly practicing them.
The competitive urgency is here, just as it has been for the past 3 to 5 years; however, in the past year, there has been an increased understanding that workforce intelligence is about making not just HR better but also the business better. It’s about not just understanding data-driven HR and the usual metrics, but also specifically how HR can connect what it’s doing to business outcomes. It’s about how HR can not only align with the business but also drive the business by making better decisions about the workforce. It’s about knowing and applying an in-depth understanding of organizational dynamics based on data.
Incremental progress is being made and increasingly more companies are looking to connect their talent and business data as a single source of data truth. Only then can HR make data-driven business decisions and develop a workforce plan that optimizes talent investments while effectively monitoring recruiting, development, engagement, productivity, accountability, retention and many other workplace initiatives.
Join Visier and guest Meghan M. Biro, founder and CEO of TalentCulture, for an informative webinar, where you’ll learn:
●Why talent acquisition and retention critically impact your business.
●How to develop and sustain a single source of HR data truth.
●How to connect workforce decisions to business outcomes.
●How workforce planning helps create a culture of collaborative productivity.
●How to drive and sustain real workplace accountability with data-driven initiatives.
The Current State of Virtual Workplaces and Their Effect on PerformanceHuman Capital Media
Over the past decade, distance-working arrangements have emerged as a potential business solution as technology improves and work-life balance becomes more important to current and future employees. The amount of telework done in the United States grew 79 percent between 2005 and 2012, and today there are whole industries where it’s rare to find a worker who hasn’t done some sort of telework. All participating organizations may use distance working to position themselves as an employer of choice to attract top talent and as a solution to low productivity and engagement levels.
Join us for this webinar, The Current State of Virtual Workplaces and Their Effect on Performance, and learn how organizations are seeing success with distance-working arrangements.
During this webinar, we’ll discuss the recent findings from a Workforce magazine and Inquisium study related to the current state of virtual workforces including:
How virtual work is selective among organizations and why.
How most virtual work arrangements came about.
How virtual working arrangements are having a positive effect.
The importance of employee feedback programs being used to gather data on organizations’ telecommuting programs and policies to measure their effect on engagement and performance.
Engagement Is Overrated: Use Your Surveys to Drive Business ResultsHuman Capital Media
An employee survey can be a useful tool but only if it’s used to measure the right thing. Several areas are trending in the employee survey world now: empowerment, satisfaction, best place to work, commitment and engagement. There is even a vendor talking about sustainable engagement. The question is, can you demonstrate how your employee survey improves business performance by focusing on these areas?
Measuring engagement was thought to be the savior of the employee survey process. Unfortunately, engagement is not a business outcome, so simply measuring engagement won’t convince skeptical leaders that employee attitudes are important to business performance.
Join this webinar and learn how to:
Link employee attitudes directly to business outcomes (e.g., sales, productivity).
Prioritize interventions that have the greatest impact on business outcomes.
Focus front-line managers on the areas that will improve performance.
Apply survey best practices to your employee survey.
Show the business impact of improving key business drivers from your survey.

Recruiting has evolved due to technological innovations and candidate expectations and so should your measurement practices. From employer branding and recruitment marketing to social recruiting and sourcing, recruiting activity these days generates an immense amount of data.

In this age of digital transformation, the speed of business propels at breakneck pace. Thirty years ago, companies moved much slower, akin to a Class-II whitewater rapid. The executives at the helm of the lead boat negotiated the rapids dragging everyone else behind in another boat. Support functions and many individuals definitely didn’t have a place in the lead boat, but it didn’t matter much, as the convoy still succeeded moving at a manageable pace.
But today, companies demand agility, responsiveness, and foresight as they traverse dangerous Class-VI rapids. Insufficient or ineffective communication fostered or hindered by Relevancy of individuals and Teams across all disciplines leaves your organization perched precariously on the edge of a major crisis, potentially provoking financial catastrophe, deteriorating customer loyalty, and brand presence.
Damage comes in more insidious forms as well, including the repercussions of ineffective production and communication, or the cancer of a toxic organizational culture. Despite these treacherous waters, we are still often not asked to be part of the lead boat. Pat Bodin, the best-selling author of Get in the Boat: A Journey to Relevance, will discuss organizational relevance and actionable items to give you the opportunity to earn a seat in the lead boat.
Impacts of Organizational Relevance include:
For the Individual:
Elevates their awareness of the needs of all groups within the organization
Broadens their visibility to the core operations in support of its’ needs
Creates improved job satisfaction and belonging
For the Organization:
Strengthens the working relationships across all disciplines and improves retention
Fosters Talent Development
Drives performance through common focus between individuals and groups
THE AGILITY SHIFT: T-MOBILE DEVELOPS LEADERS FOR A VUCA WORLDHuman Capital Media
A volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous (VUCA) workplace requires a distinct set of leadership competencies: non-hierarchical influence, the ability to rapidly align across functions, creativity for drawing insights across domains, and most of all, “empathy,” the linchpin leadership skill in the modern workplace. Empathy allows us to imagine the world from different perspectives, unite across functions, generations, regions. Join Melissa Lanier of T-Mobile to learn about “The Agility Shift,” an award-winning leader development offering designed to equip people managers to thrive in an uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environment. The program, which will utilize cutting-edge virtual simulation technology, is designed to help leaders respond quickly and increase resilience by immersively preparing them for stressful encounters. Impact is measured on an individual, function and business level. Collectively, managers report learning how to “avoid tunnel vision,” "think on their feet," “respond rather than react” and embrace a positive mindset.
FUTUREPROOF YOUR ORGANIZATION: SUCCESSION PLANNING IN THE SKILLS ECONOMYHuman Capital Media
According to Bersin by Deloitte, only 33% of millennials believe their organizations are using their skills well, and 42% say they are likely to leave because they are not learning fast enough. Developing new knowledge, new skills and new abilities is critical to futureproofing your organization’s evolving talent needs. Additionally, assessing the abilities of your talent is essential to understanding the profiles of your employees and ensuring the right role is filled with the right ability. Whether employees need development or have mastered success, understanding the skill profile of your talent is critical to futureproof organizational growth and innovation. This session explores ways to fine-tune your talent’s abilities to perform their job duties as well as future ones.
Attendees of this presentation will have a clear understanding of:
Methods to assess the skills and abilities of your talent to ensure the right role is filled with the right employee.
Ways to incorporate development, skills assessments and succession planning into employee performance conversations.
How to create now the company culture you want to be then.
Many companies seem to have fallen victim to the ominous skills gap – but only because they’ve found it’s easier to place blame somewhere than to look at what they can do to fix it. If you’re struggling to find qualified candidates, you might need to take a deeper look at your organization and ask some pointed questions. Are there areas of the recruiting process that are lending to skill gaps? Have you done a formal assessment to uncover skill gaps? Are you using modern learning methods to bridge gaps by upskilling your current workforce?
Join Katie Miller from BizLibrary as we re-evaluate potential root causes of your organization’s skill gaps and discuss what can be done to fill them efficiently.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
The factors that could be contributing to your skill gaps, and how to find and address the root causes
How to re-evaluate what a “qualified candidate” is in order to create more relevant and realistic talent expectations
How to start uncovering your organization’s skill gaps with a formal assessment
How to use modern training methods to bridge skill gaps by upskilling your workforce
Behind every successful organization is a great team of leaders. But despite billions of dollars spent each year on leadership development programs most companies are still failing their next generation of emerging leaders. In fact, according to Gallup, 50% of attrition is due to poor managers––which makes that the biggest driver of employee disengagement.
So why are leadership development programs failing? And how can we fix it?
Join us for a live webinar where we discuss reasons these programs fail and how to keep your leadership development on track. We’ll explore:
How to identify who should be a leader in the first place
The big, pervasive problem with leadership development
What to do with great employees who might not be cut out for management
The best traits to bring out of your emerging leaders

REACHING THE BLUE COLLAR WORKFORCE: HOW POLARIS DEVELOPS TALENT IN 2019Human Capital Media
Traditional L&D isn’t obsolete, but it has become outdated. That’s why we collected data from nearly 800 workers, managers, and leaders from around the globe to gain some insights into where L&D and talent leaders can be more effective. The survey says…..L&D is falling short for the modern workforce. In fact, our respondents gave their employers an overall Net Promoter Score of -25 on their learning and development strategies. But many business leaders know this already. What they don’t know is how to fix it. The good news is that employees still love learning and they’re looking for organizational guidance. By honing in on the data and insights that impact how people — and companies — learn, you can make smarter investments in your most valuable assets: the skills of your people. Lucky for you, this event also includes a quick case study from Booking.com on how they are making this data come to life in their organization.
Register for this webinar to learn:
The difference between learning and acquiring new skills

HIRING & FIRING AROUND THE WORLD: AVOID LEGAL TRIPWIRES IN THE TOP COUNTRIES ...Human Capital Media
The war for talent is heating up and businesses are smart to consider qualified, passionate candidates from around the world.
That said, hiring and firing in countries other than the U.S. comes with interesting (and often surprising) challenges.
In the U.S., companies can hire quickly as business entities are already established. They can fire quickly as well, so long as the reason isn’t illegal.
What many executive teams overlook is that this efficiency isn’t the same when expanding and adding team members globally. Internationally, hiring without setting up a subsidiary is impossible. And the concept of at-will employment, where companies can let go of employees at any time, does not exist.
What does this mean for your international expansion plans and your business? What would normally be an uneventful employment action or termination in the U.S. could blindside your company in an international context.
Navigating the intricacies of country-specific labor laws can feel like a minefield of potential legal exposure, expensive litigation, and costly payouts. It’s critical to be prepared before you make the first international hire.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
3 things every HR lead needs to know when it’s time to hire globally
Surprising facts about employment law and benefits packages in EMEA, APAC and more
What U.S.-based HR teams need to know about the termination process in key expansion countries (and real stories from international HR specialists on the ground)

Dont wait what 300 ld leaders have learned about building data fluencyHuman Capital Media
Data science and AI are impacting many industries globally, from healthcare and government to agriculture and finance. Everybody needs to be able to work with data the way everybody needed to start using email 20 years ago. As we wrote in Harvard Business Review, “Very few companies expect only professional writers to know how to write. So why ask only professional data scientists to understand and analyze data, at least at a basic level?”
But what value can data fluency actually add, what are best practices to build it into your organization, and what are the biggest challenges that businesses encounter in data-driven transformations?
To answer these questions and more, we conducted a survey of over 300 Learning and Development leaders from diverse industries including healthcare, technology, consumer goods, government, and finance. Join this webinar with Dr. Hugo Bowne-Anderson, a data scientist and educator at DataCamp, to find out what we discovered and what 300 L&D leaders have learned about building data fluency.
Learning Objectives:
What value can data fluency actually add?
What are the best practices to build data fluency in your organization?
What are the biggest challenges that businesses encounter in data-driven transformations?
As businesses become more technological (AI and robotics), there is a challenge and opportunity to, paradoxically, make them more human. The Business Roundtable talked about the importance of human stakeholders over just profit — but how close are we? Are those nice words? What would it take to make business and change more human? As a change, ethics and leadership expert with 40 years of experience, Paul Gibbons will talk us through conclusions from his new book “IMPACT.”
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
1) Is the Fourth Industrial Revolution really "a thing?” What is it and what makes our time special?
2) What are the human implications of new technologies? Who will benefit? What is the potential harm?
3) What can workplaces and leaders do to equip themselves for these workplace transformations (future of work)?
Courage (noun): the mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty. Author Ryan Berman has devoted the past three years interviewing many of the most courageous people and leaders on the planet. Through this experience, he learned that the companies that win share courageousness as a trait. Berman unveils how every brand can unlock courage in their people, leaders or culture. This presentation culminates with ways for the audience to take action today to transform from a Coward Brand or Stasis Brand into a Courage Brand.
After this discussion you’ll be able to:
Build a culture of empowered, courageous behavior and experimentation.
Utilize a modern day, step-by-step framework to becoming a Courage Brand.
Overcome the clarity epidemic we currently find ourselves in.
Create true conviction and healthy retention with your best people.

12. Workforce Intelligence Maturity
This maturity curve is from PwcSaratoga. The Saratoga survey was founded by Dr. Jac
Fitz-Enz, who is widely considered the “father” of human capital measurement and strategic
analysis. NOTE: In reality the process is not this linear. Companies tend to achieve
greater maturity in some analytics versus others at different times, driven by investment,
resources, and timing related to business needs.

• What is likely to
happen and how
can we be better
prepared?
• Why did it happen
and how/where can
we improve?
• What happened,
and how do we
compare to a
defined set of
metrics?

17. THE BUSINESS APPLICATION GAP
Analytic Impact and Effectiveness at Business Application and Sophistication
There are two paths to
improving Analytic
Impact; however, first
improving business
application leads to more
impact more quickly.
■ Improving business
application alone can
improve Analytic Impact by as
much as 14%.
■ Improving sophistication alone
can improve Analytic Impact
by as much as 5%.
■ Organizations that are high on
sophistication but low on
business application are losing
up to 17% of potential Analytic
Impact.
Business Application is the
ability to take specific actions
from talent analytics.

Business Application is measured by effectiveness at identifying the right business problems, applying business judgment to
data, and engaging leaders to take action.
2
Sophistication is measured by effectiveness at complex analyses, (e.g., predictive and
prescriptive modeling).
Only 17% of organizations
match high sophistication with
business application of insights.
Best Path to Impact
Analytic Sophistication is an
organization’s effectiveness at
using advanced methodology
for talent analytics.

27. Likely Challenges
27
1. Multiple systems that aren’t integrated
2. Data structures that were not designed for
easy output
3. People don’t think of human capital data as
“business data”
4. People don’t know what they want/need
5. People trust their opinion more than they
trust data
6. No money (or priority) to implement
technology
29. Lessons Learned
1. Set clear, specific goals before you start
2. You need people who WANT to (and
are capable of) doing data analysis
3. Commit the resources needed
4. Do not confuse measuring HR
processes with human capital analysis
29
30. Lessons Learned con’t
5. The people who do the analysis need to
be in the conversation about the analysis
6. One size does not fit all
7. People need guidance in using the data
or analysis
8. DO NOT underestimate the amount of
change management needed
