Current challenges at Spectra Energy
Rooted in long-held processes
Lack of functional
competency
Workforce planning primarily
approached as reactive
demographic reporting, not
as proactive discipline and
methodology.
Business comes to HR for
reports, not solutions
Reports provide limited
insight as they tend to be
reviewed in isolation.
Abundance of data,
limitedcapacity
Meaningful insights hard to
come by without a different
approach.
Processchallenges
Prevent HR from becoming a
valued partner to the business.
Point-of-contacts not best
source for analytic consulting
Client-facing partners often not
equipped to ask the right
questions and then use available
data-based evidence for
addressing problems at hand.

What are talent analytics and workforce planning?
Definitions
Talent Analytics
• Is the application of analytics
processes to the human resource
space
• Does not deal simply with
gathering efficiency data
• Provides insight into HR
processes by gathering data to
make relevant decisions about
how to improve these processes
• Examines causal relationships
between HR activities and
resulting business outcomes.
When actualized, businesses
attain a greater ROI
Workforce Planning
Systematic process for…
• Analyzing the workforce
• Identifying and addressing the
gaps between the workforce
today and future staffing needs
• Determining the steps to take to
meet the human capital needs of
tomorrow
