HR professionals are in high demand. Job postings for HR professionals with advanced strategic and business analysis skills are abundant but the question many employers are asking is whether or not the HR talent has the skills to really have ‘a seat at the table’ to solve real business issues today and for the future.

HR professionals are challenged to evaluate complex organizational challenges and opportunities. What if there was a proven way to diagnose organizational and people issues that leads to enhanced organizational performance? There is.  It’s the practice of Business Analysis. This webinar describes the practice of Business Analysis applied to some of the most pressing issues that HR professionals are grappling with today and in the new world of work.

Evaluating and diagnosing issues with tools and methods tested across every industry sector can produce effective interventions and actions such as new HR program development. The practice of evidence-informed decision making requires that HR professionals are leveraging data and insights to make recommendations that will positively impact the organization.

Many CHRO’s and business leaders expect more from the HR function. They want HR to be more targeted and business minded and to leverage quality data to make people-related decisions. But, many HR professionals have never been trained in the discipline of Business Analysis.

This webinar introduces HR professionals to the core foundations of Business Analysis and how to build knowledge and skill that can be instantly applied to the workplace.
