🚨 Don't Let These 5 People Analytics Mistakes Kill Your Success! 🚨

I'll keep it real right off the bat. This article is not for you, if you are:

1️⃣ only trying to finish that HR Dashboard to keep your leadership team at peace.

2️⃣ only performing analyzes you have heard about as "best practices" by some expert.

3️⃣ only want to use data in people management, because everyone is doing it.

4️⃣ saying to drive people analytics, but only offer working student positions for this field.

Because in all of the above cases, you're not actually driving People Analytics.

You're trying to fake your way out of really becoming a data-based people function.

REAL People Analytics wants to integrate various HR and business data to test hypotheses about human behavior at work with the goal of making better people decisions. 

Yeah, sounds obvious. But I rarely see its pure form. Why?

1️⃣ Because I hardly see well-formulated hypotheses about people's behaviors at work.

2️⃣ Because I hardly see integrated data needed to test these hypotheses.

3️⃣ Because I hardly see scientific methods optimized to test the hypotheses.

4️⃣ Because I hardly see the results actually being taken as the basis of people-related decisions.

So, if you really want to get serious about People Analytics and rake in the benefits that experts have been boasting about for a decade - read on, and share this article with your network.

People Analytics mistakes to avoid

Many People Analytics initiatives are misguided substantially, because of at least one of the following mistakes. These mistakes have created path dependencies. They are not your fault.

They are caused by so-called experts, who blind you with fancy terminology, like "Smart Data", "Big Data for HR", "Talent Intelligence", and so on.

You're only to blame for not having hired enough people with data science skills or a background in common scientific methods within the social sciences. If you had, they'd call bullshit on these fads.

So, if you're committing one of the following mistakes, you're lucky that they are not irreversible. But, you really need to stop doing them.
