People analytics (also known as HR analytics) is revolutionizing Human Resource Management. Get ready for the future of HR and discover how you can leverage the power of data to drive better outcomes for your business and employees.

Together with David Green we set out to write an inspiring book for (HR) professionals, managers, and directors who want to get a feel for the scope of HR analytics and learn how it can help both the employees and the business.

In this book, we combined our experiences with lots of inspiring examples. It's concise, easy to read and teaches you all the basic principles of people analytics.
