The ROI of People Analytics
by Tom McKeown, Cofounder & CEO, TrenData | Thursday, January 23, 2020 at 2:00 PM CST
The great Irish statesman Edmund Burke was known to have said, “Those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it.” This adage is as true in business as it is in politics. Failed business leaders rarely look at more than the current moment or quarter when making important decisions, while successful ones have a strategy plotted out that encompasses a much broader timetable. Trending your past metrics into actionable HR analytics can let you know if your organization is on the right course, or indicate whether you need to make to a correction.
Join Tom McKeown, Cofounder & CEO of TrenData, as he discusses best practices and the immediate return on investment of implementing a robust people analytics solution.
