If HR wants to be a strategic partner to the business, start using HR analytics!

We came across this video* - it was an interview done by HR professionals on the role of HR in 2025 and why HR analytics are important.

Key take-aways from the interview are:

HR can and will become more and more strategic!!!

HOW:

• By equipping themselves with business acumen and leveraging HR analytics to be “more numerically and analytically-focused” so that they can make number-based decisions.

WHY:

• Because “leadership lives in the world of numbers, data and analysis. if HR wants to be in that space, we have to be in-sync”. This is a very powerful statement and reason for our fellow HR professionals to see the importance of HR analytics and data.

• HR analytics give HR power to influence and help leadership.
