Quotes:

“If you're not showing the graphs that tell the story—if you're just spewing numbers or facts, you're making no change. [HR analytics] has to tell a story that leads to actionable items that impact the company in a positive way.”

“What I challenge myself with daily . . . is making sure [I] don't have blinders on and that [I’m] not repeating the same cycle over and over. [I’m] continually looking for other data, other information.”
