Event Description

The purpose of the Human Capital Analytics Network is to provide HR Analysts the tools to turn HR data and reporting into Human Capital Analytics and essentially relevant business proposals for management.

The topics are (program might be subject to change):

September 4, 2019 - Conceptual Model-Building: This session provides hands-on tools for generating ideas and translating them into theory-based models. The aim is to offer the participants clear guidance for defining constructs, thinking through relationships and processes that link constructs, and deriving new conceptual models (or building on existing ones) based on those relationships. Step by step, it is illustrated how to use causal analysis as well as grounded and emergent approaches to model construction. 
 
November 6, 2019 - Statistical Modelling and Applied Econometrics: This session aims at providing econometric analytical tools for participants with limited prior econometric experience. Participants will be able to identify the appropriate econometric technique given their research question and the available data. They will be able to distinguish between different econometric models and understand the limitations and pitfalls of each taught tool, and learn how to handle attrition (selection bias) and endogeneity problems. 
 
February 26, 2020 - Visualization and Communication: This session focuses on the ability to visualize, present and interpret data analysis results in a professional manner. The participants will be exposed to the available visualization packages and will experiment with digital tools to formulate and communicate the results of in-house analytics projects. 

April 29, 2020 - Change Management and Implementation: Every analytics project is a change management project. The key to success is some basic knowledge of the points where the change process can fail. By developing a comprehensive view of change risk, participants will learn how to mitigate each risk with targeted strategies and tactics, and systematically remove the obstacles to implementation success.
