Organizational effectiveness Data processing
2025
\"Jenny Dearborn and Kelly Rider believe that most business problems are actually people problems at their core. HR is not a strategic business partner and is still perceived as a \"back office\" function that has not evolved even though it is one of the most important to the business. In The Insight-Driven Leader, Jenny and Kelly communicate how real business problems were \"solved\" by HR and to successfully equip HR leaders to become more strategic and valued partners to the business through people insights. While most books on data-driven HR organizations focus on obvious \"people\" problems such as attraction, engagement, and retention, The Insight-Driven Leader shows how people analytics can be used to solve critical business problems where HR historically has not been involved. The book is organized around the top 10 most pressing business problems--illustrated by case studies and examples--that are not obviously people problems (and to the average business leader) that people insights can solve. This book shows both business and HR leaders how to broaden their analysis into business challenges to include insights from people metrics and data that may be contributing to these issues, elevating the HR function into a true strategic partner to the business. With probing questions that should be asked by business leaders and HR leaders to uncover insights using people insights/analytics, readers will be equipped with understanding how to incorporate HR metrics when diagnosing business challenges and strategic decision-making\"-- Provided by publisher.
