Playing the Same Game: How HR Professionals Can Join the Analytics Leadership Club

As a Caribbean HR Professional, you want to be taken seriously. In fact, the longer you stay in the organization, interacting with higher levels, the more this conviction grows.

But you have noticed that people in the finance function share an inside language with the CEO. It’s heavily analytic. At the top, leaders demand data-driven insights from each other in order to run the business.

Now and then you get a glimpse of this secret club which makes the company’s most important decisions. Unfortunately, some functions aren’t always included.

However, over the years, you have seen this change as Operations, Marketing, Sales and Customer Service have gradually become more analytic….and some have therefore joined the club.

But has your HR function become part of this inner circle?

In the 2024 CaribHRForum conference series, we’re going to explore the skills HR professionals need to join the most important discussions in today’s organizations. In this first webinar of two, we’ll look at your spreadsheet skills.

Even if you have never used Excel or Google Sheets, join us to begin to craft a personal development plan that will give you the foundation you need. This is a precursor to people analytics – a point of entry for any HR Professional at any level of proficiency.

We’ll emphasize the need to learn these skills in a way that’s gentle, friendly, and fun. You’ll also see group learning with other HR professionals can accelerate your learning.

The point is that you’ll be introduced to an approach that will make you a viable, respected contributor for years to come.

This discussion featured Jane Wight, CEO of The Business Supply Group. She’s one of the few HR professionals currently leading a major Caribbean company. During the webinar, she shared a blunt perspective: what your top management thinks you/HR should be doing about your people analytic skills.

It’s the kind of thing you wish your CEO would share directly with you, but won’t.

She was joined by Kerron Ramganesh, who launched and leads the People Analytics function at Caribbean Airlines.

Don’t miss this opportunity to grapple with this challenge. If you’ve been putting this off for some time, register to participate so you can start your journey towards having skills which are difficult to obtain without good design and focused effort.
