WMBA6401 Human Resource Analytics
Week 2 Discussion
The Strategic Value of HR Analytics
Alignment issues in organizations drive much of the organizational changes seen today. For example, if an organization wants to have its employees working in new and innovative ways, organizational leaders might recognize that the current organizational structure is not the most practical one for employees to work to their full capability or that the structure is bureaucratic. Or the organization may want to be aggressive, but its employees and its culture are averse to risk. These are examples of alignment challenges.
