Part 1

 

People Analytics World was a very busy two days. We somehow managed to pin down two speakers and a key industry commentator, amid a flurry of amazing sessions towards the end of Day Two, to give us their reflections on the event and the key themes that emerged.

They cover:

  • Cole Nussbaumer, and her showstopper presentation on Data Visualisation
  • Ross Sparkman of Facebook discussing the marriage of workforce planning and common sense
  • True North Analytics, and their excellent report on analysing the impact of the Gender Pay Gap
  • The long term ROI and competitive advantage afforded by People Analytics
  • Standardisation of HR definitions and indicators
  • The shift in skill sets in HR
  • Career progression as an HR professional in analytics
  • Employee happiness as a corporate asset
  • Automation and the future of work
  • Collaboration and long-term strategic planning

Among many other topics. Listen to this pacey recap of just some of the fascinating highlights of this world summit.
