Publisher's summary

The Data Driven Leader presents a clear, accessible guide to solving important leadership challenges through human resources-focused and other data analytics. This engaging audiobook tells you how to transform the HR function and overall organizational effectiveness by using data to make decisions grounded in facts vs opinions, identify root causes behind your company's thorniest problems, and move toward a winning, future-focused business strategy. Realistic and actionable, this book tells the story of a successful sales executive who, after leading an analytics-driven turnaround (in Data Driven, this book's predecessor), faces a new turnaround challenge as chief human resources officer. Each chapter features insightful commentary and practical notes on the points the story raises, guiding you to put HR analytics into action in your organization.

HR and other leaders cannot afford to overlook the power and competitive advantages of data-driven decision-making and strategies. This audiobook reflects the growing trend of CEOs choosing analytics-minded business leaders to head HR, at a time when workplaces everywhere face game-changing forces including automation, robotics, and artificial intelligence.

Good story but not too much new insights

Good storyline and practical suggestions for the hiring process and setting it in line with corporate priorities. However expected more from 'people analytics' on how to develop and your companies workforce plan.
