Making Sense Of HR Metrics And Analytics

You have probably heard the on-going buzz - especially in today's economy - that HR needs to use more metrics.

It is true that metrics can help you make good decisions on all sorts of HR issues and (just as importantly) prove to others that HR is making good business decisions. For example, you may need to measure how well your recruitment processes are working or decide if an investment in developing middle managers makes sense.

You probably feel that you should get started using more metrics, but want some assurance you are using – and presenting – them correctly.

This audio conference points out the things that can go wrong with HR metrics and how to avoid them. We also give a simple and fool proof technique for staying on track.
