Strategic HR Analytics: From Metrics to Insight
Introduction
In today’s knowledge-driven economy, **human capital** has emerged as the most critical driver of organisational success. The HR function can no longer remain a purely administrative unit—it must evolve into a **strategic partner**, actively shaping and implementing corporate strategy.
To achieve this, HR leaders need the ability to measure, analyse, and interpret how HR decisions impact organisational outcomes—and how organisational strategies affect human capital. Through **HR metrics and analytics**, HR can move beyond intuition to **evidence-based decision-making**, enabling it to drive change rather than merely respond to it.
This intensive programme equips participants with the frameworks, tools, and insights needed to design and apply HR metrics and analytics that add measurable value to their organisations.
