Preface
Welcome to Human Resource Management: People, Data, and Analytics. We set out to write this book because we believe that human resource management (HRM) has the potential to be an essential business partner in making data-informed decisions within organizations. The potential for HRM has never been greater than it is today. However, that potential will only be realized if business students are well versed in how people, data, and analytics work together as legs of a three-legged stool. If we only focus on one or two legs, the stool tips over. But when each part is understood and functioning, the results are stable and powerful. As you will read throughout this book, fluency in people, data, and analytics involves asking the right questions, gathering the right data to address questions, choosing appropriate analyses, and interpreting and communicating findings in a meaningful way. Moreover, recognizing and addressing ethical and legal challenges are critical for success. Today, organizations that are able to manage people, data, and analytics effectively are positioned to leverage HRM to inform and support organizational strategy.
Thus, a unique feature of this book is a focus on how HRM is rapidly evolving into a vibrant and data-rich field while also making sure that students are well versed in the basics of HRM. While the demand for data and analytic skills is growing (as evidenced by the 2018 glassdoor.com Best Jobs in America list with data scientist as #1, HR manager as #5, and analytics manager as #18), business students will be well served if they understand HRM regardless of their intended major or work setting. As a result, this book is designed to help students leverage the principles of people, data, and analytics to focus on leveraging data to inform decisions in business in general and HRM specifically. With recent changes in HRM, we have observed that many of today’s leading organizations use a people, data, and analytics approach to design and implement HRM systems and procedures aimed at recruiting, selecting, training, managing, developing, rewarding, and retaining talented people. We incorporate this approach through the use of several features throughout the book as well as data-informed, hands-on student experiences in every chapter. At the same time, all the time-honored HRM concepts are covered in depth for students studying all business functions including HRM.
