Numbers That Tell the People Story: How Data Literacy Transforms HR Leadership (Part one)
Manage episode 475831680 series 3557656
Hey humans! On this part one of a two part series, I had the pleasure of hosting a fantastic round table discussion with three amazing HR professionals - Jennifer Wright, Karen Brieger, and Kelly Oliver - where we dive into the world of data literacy in human resources. Each of my guests shared their unique HR journeys and how embracing data has been a game-changer in their careers.
We had a really honest conversation about how data literacy helps transform HR from being seen as just the "squishy people stuff" department to becoming a strategic business partner that directly impacts organizational success.
You'll love hearing their personal stories - from Karen's boardroom moment that became her wake-up call, to Jennifer's transition from retail buying to HR leadership, and Kelly's perspective coming from sales operations into the people space, we explored how HR data directly connects to business outcomes when we know how to collect it, make sense of it, and present it effectively.
We all shared some great real-world examples, and also talked about the importance of spreading data literacy beyond our HR teams to middle managers throughout our organizations, and the tech tools (like HR Bench) that have helped us all move from manual spreadsheets to more sophisticated analytics.
Enjoy this part one and stay tuned next Tuesday for the follow up!
Enjoy,
Stacie
