A fundamental part of a workforce insights strategy is the focus on people leaders as the ultimate beneficiaries of People Analytics.

This is based on the belief that HR must play a enabling role in encouraging a culture of data-driven people decision-making, but that the line manager is in the best position to use insights to optimise and manage the teams they lead.

In order to unlock the value from the investment in People Analytics, it is critical that insights gets actioned. People Analytics leaders are often frustrated by the fact that they produce great insights that are never put into action. A key question asked by HR and People Analytics leaders is how to get the business leaders to act on the insights that is made available to them.
