In this episode of the SmartKeys podcast, we explore the transition from simple HR reporting to advanced people analytics. Modern workforce analytics tools act as a "single source of truth," unifying disconnected data from payroll, HRIS, and performance reviews to help leaders make smarter, proactive decisions.
Based on the strategic guide by Felix Römer, we break down the current tool landscape—from real-time monitoring to predictive planning platforms. We analyze how to move from looking at what happened in the past to predicting future trends like employee turnover and labor costs.
In this episode, you will learn:
The Unification of Data: How workforce analytics tools integrate disparate systems into a single view to identify risks and opportunities.
The Tool Landscape: A breakdown of the three main categories: Monitoring platforms (e.g., Teramind), BI and Visualization (e.g., Tableau), and People Analytics and Planning platforms (e.g., Visier).
Predicting and Reducing Turnover: How to apply machine learning to historical data to identify at-risk employees and intervene before they leave.
Boosting Productivity: Using real-time activity trends to guide coaching and balance workloads across teams without micromanagement.
Strategic Workforce Planning: Modeling future scenarios for headcount and labor costs to ensure your talent strategy aligns with long-term business goals.
From Data to Action: Practical steps for deploying high-impact use cases that provide a fast return on investment for HR and management teams.
Stop managing your team based on intuition alone. Tune in to learn how to leverage workforce analytics to build a more resilient, high-performing organization.
