How We Empowered Executives to Leverage HR Data – and Why that’s Great for You
There’s no doubt that data and technology are transforming HR. Last year, we rolled out a people analytics product not just to HR, but to every single associate at Capital One (with differentiated permissions, of course). Now half of our executives are active users, leveraging HR analytics to do their everyday jobs. They no longer have to wait for attrition, performance, or recruitment data - and now their conversations with HR business partners are about HR strategy, elevating the role of HR in the organization. Come learn how we leveraged data to transform the relationship between HR and the business, and how you too can leverage proactive data sharing to strengthen your partnership with business executives. We’ll share where we think HR is headed and how you can stay ahead.
Learning objectives:
- Learn why proactive data sharing can enable more strategic relationships
- Identify where and how to leverage data in conversations with executives
- Develop tools to advocate for the data needed to be successful in your roles
In-person session offerings are on a first-come, first-served basis.
