PEOPLE ANALYTICS
People analytics can be defined as the deeply data driven method to study all the
people and processes, functions, challenges, and opportunities at work to elevate these
businesses. It is often referred to as talent or HR analytics. Basically, gathering and
assessing people’s data which leads to better decisions.
Smarter, more strategic, and data-backed talent decisions are thus closer at hand, and
this is applicable throughout the employee lifecycle – from making better hiring
decisions and more effective performance management to better retention.
People analytics can make a significant contribution to an organization. The examples
are shown below.

'PEOPLE ANALYTICS' TO 'ANALYTICS FOR PEOPLE'
Earlier the employers used data to gain new insights on people topics and affect their
organization. Numerous organizations use People Analytics from an organizational
perspective. If the focus is primarily on efficiency and control, employees will doubt if
there are any benefits for them.
Just measuring the “mood” of employees, and other key people indicators (productivity,
tenure) does not necessarily bring benefits to employees. It might actually backfire:
employees feel that they are controlled, and their voice is not heard.
Questions were raised on how this is beneficial for the employees and what is the
added value of people analytics for the individual.
In recent years, there is a shift to more employee-centric organizations. Now employees
could also use and benefit from the insights and outcomes of People Analytics
practices.
PEOPLE CENTRIC ANALYTICS
People-centric analytics provides customized products and services, which meet the needs
of both the employee and the organization. From the perspective of the employee, this is
also known as the consumerization of HR. This term refers to employees’ expectations that
their technology experiences at work will be similar to their technology experiences as
consumers. People Analytics plays a crucial role in enabling this.
The more data about people you have access to, whether it comes from outside or inside
the company, the richer and more diverse data you can plug into your People Analytics
model. This will open the door to profiling possibilities on an individual level.
