Storytelling, the Missing Link for People Analytics Teams

The session will explore options for the presentation and communication of People Analytics.

Many People Analytics teams think of their job as providing the results of their analyses. In reality, this is only half of the role. Analytics needs to be converted to “calls for action” through storytelling if it’s going to be truly impacting.

We’re truly fortunate to feature Peter as a speaker once again at People Analytics World. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from one of the most influential figures in People Analytics, who has made a huge contribution to HR Technology, Planning and Analytics over more than 40 years.
