Description

Along with most other aspects of our business environment, the domain of human resource management is being fundamentally reshaped through the application of advanced data analytics. People analytics is a class of technology tools aimed at promoting evidence-based practices in organizations and allowing managers to make objective and rational decisions about their workforce. In this episode of The Management Lab, we explore the promise and perils of people analytics, and discuss these topics:


  • The assumptions that underlie the vision of people analytics.

  • What is people analytics good for and what applications may reflect an overreach of the technology?

  • The key drivers and impediments for effective implementation and use of people analytics in organizations.

  • The interaction of organizational culture and people analytics effectiveness.

  • The potential for the reinforcement of biases in the use of people analytics


Have a listen and see what you make of this emergent class of technology resources.
