Only kidding

Areas in which Predictive Analytics can help HR  

Most industry solutions focus on new applicants and existing employees

-  High potentials, leadership development

•  Team development and alignment

•  Knowing who is likely to switch jobs, when

Context: Reporting vs. Predictive Analytics 7

Predictive Analytics •  Predictive models (i.e. credit score, life events) •  Probability of events and/or their timing

Data Analysis •  Statistical analysis, and relational models •  Understanding cause and effect

Dynamic Reporting •  Aggregate view of data sources •  Benchmarking or validation

(Traditional) Reporting •  Measure results •  Efficiency, compliance

•  What is happening now?

•  Why did it happen?

I know

 Investment Flow

A constantly evolving data stream that is “external” to HR systems, creates enormous opportunity

A simplified example of an analytic  

•  Based on internal historic data (e.g. known data)

•  Often built on relational models

•  Batch oriented

nature (e.g. produces results at time of report)

12 What we’ve decided to focus on in the near term  Social data streams have (so far) left some basic problems unsolved by HR technology

HR Business Function Existing Employees Recruiting

Pain Point (Problem Statement)

More than 70% of the workforce would entertain a conversation for a new job, leaving companies exposed to leavers and vacancies

Other than skill and experience, companies have limited insights about which people should be contacted first, or even when

Opportunity Know if people are active job seekers Know the ideal time to contact a person

Benefits •  Early detection of employees at risk •  Identify possible mgmt. issues •  Real-time talent planning

•  Gain competitive advantage •  Reduce cost, save time, gain focus •  Follow interesting people

The softer side of things  

Let’s imagine what is possible, and how Predictive Analytics might shift a paradigm •  What if there was a simpler/organized way for recruiting departments to

follow interesting people, and be alerted to the ideal time to contact them?

•  What if companies could automatically knew who to contact first for an open role based on that person’s job-seeking interest level? Is the applicant serious or just fishing? Etc.

•  What if a company knew that their best employees were at risk of leaving?

•  What if there was a way for people to send “signals” to targeted companies that they (he/she) might be interested in hearing about an opportunity but they don’t want anyone to know that they are looking?

In closing  

•  If I stand here any longer, we will begin talking about morals, big brother, privacy, and a host of other topics that will kill the rest of the day L

•  So, simply…thank you!

•  Let’s have some Q&A not about the first bullet
