Driving Business Productivity and Employee Experience with People Analytics
People analytics offers tremendous potential to companies to support business strategy, improve productivity and performance, and personalize and enhance the employee experience. Despite this and significant growth in interest and adoption, business and HR leaders are still struggling to derive value from people analytics.
Challenges include managing increasing amounts of people data, developing the data literacy skills of HR Business Partners, managing ethics and translating analytical insights to value. Two questions that prevail are: “How can I improve my impact?” and “What should I focus on?”
David Green will discuss his approach to help you answer these questions and ultimately enable you to derive more value from people analytics. The workshop will include exercises targeted to help delegates identify business challenges within their own organizations that they could potentially use people analytics to help solve.
Key Takeaways:
- Learn about the dimensions and steps required to build and sustain success with people analytics
- Prepare your organization to take advantage of the opportunities offered by people analytics whilst navigating the challenges
- Identify business challenges within your organizations that could potentially be solved through the insights offered by people analytics

Further, we will leverage story-telling and a cinematic approach to make culture come alive and setting up teams for success. Culture is like theater: Learn how to design and direct the story you want to see!

Employee Experience Guide for CHROs
HR needs to deliver a frictionless digital workforce experience that not only gives the workforce direct access to the tools, service, and intelligence they need to excel at their jobs but also delivers processes that drive engagement or a shift from tool "adoption” to tool “addiction.” If done correctly, addiction will drive true adaptation of behavior, which is the ultimate goal of transformation.
For improved workforce experience, we need to reimagine the model required to deliver The Right Product to The Right People at The Right Moment through The Right Channel. In this interactive session, CHROs will evaluate the current state of their workforce experience and determine actionable steps to bring a digital people strategy to life, including technology strategies that engage the workforce to be productive.
Key Takeaways:
- Digital Workforce Experience: Identify your organization's current state, desired state, and process to bridge the gap
- How to leverage Workforce Experience design strategies on top of your existing Digital HR and HR technology portfolios
- An understanding of the key components of a frictionless Digital Workforce Experience & how to implement them in your organizational context
- How to integrate technology for a seamless Digital Workforce Experience
