| Inhalt |
In this seminar, we will explore how to use people analytics to improve decision making in business. Specifically, we focus on how people analytics can help fostering sustainability.
Many organizations strive to foster sustainability with the aim to respond to diverse stakeholder interests in alleviating inequalities and reducing organizations’ contribution to resource depletion. HRM scholarship and companies identified that HRM can contribute to achieving these goals and experiment with different approaches. People analytics generates relevant evidence by combining technical knowledge of analytics with a sound understanding of the people side of business and can help organizations to identify effective solutions fostering sustainability.
We will follow a problem-based-learning approach and combine lectures, guest speakers’ contributions, in-class discussions, and practical project work.
For more details about the course please consult the syllabus that will be made available at the homepage of the Center for Human Resource Management (CEHRM) beginning of September.
