Storytelling in HR Training Workshop
People data is everywhere. An individual’s employee, consumer and social data are increasing in volume and presence. This is an incredibly valuable resource for HR and the business if they can find a way to leverage it.
This one-day workshop provides you with three Storytelling building blocks:
A clear understanding of People Analytics (including where you and your organisation are on this journey)
A methodology for deploying People Analytics at your organisation
A well-defined first project to make an impact - based on your unique People Analytics agenda
“I get a lot of emails promoting things but this one on HR Storytelling just jumped out at me. When I read it I found it to be just what I was looking for.”

Overview
People analytics allows companies to think differently about their people operations. They can now test various hypotheses, gather insights and predict outcomes.
We are slowly but steadily moving towards an evidence-based and collaborative approach to decision-making in our organisations. The Google rework project provides a pragmatic and accessible illustration of this new data-driven approach - https://rework.withgoogle.com/subjects/people-analytics/
People analytics creates a unique opportunity for human capital and human resources professionals to position themselves as evidence based strategic partners of the executive board.
Rapid transformation of the workforce and the workplace is understandably making the other business functions turn to HR for actionable insights in terms of their people.
This workshop is aimed at anyone in an organisation who is tasked with or wants to take a leading role in getting their organisation engaged with the process of People Data to Actionable Insights.
For any People Analytic project to succeed; HR initiatives must be directly connected to Business drivers. In practical terms this means marrying HR data with Business data. To that end the course instructor will ensure that the People and Business data in class exercises speak directly to individual attendees and their specific business challenges.
We strongly believe in a pragmatic approach to delivering People Analytics into the business. Accordingly, the workshop is designed to give delegates ample time to reflect on and discuss topics in terms of how they would play out for them at their company. A healthy mix of theory and practise is on offer.
“Nice mix of theory and practice. I found the People Analytics demos easy to follow and very relevant for my HR business partner objectives.”
Workshop objectives

WORKSHOP PRE-WORK
We understand that people are very busy and may not have as much time as they would like to prepare for a course. Accordingly we have designed the course to cover the top generic topics of concern e.g. employee engagement, where we will have dummy data available to work with. Or alternatively we welcome the opportunity for you to anonymise your own data and bring it to class in an excel format to produce insights that will resonate back at the office. If this is of interest please let us know and we will arrange a brief pre-course call with an instructor.
