Preface
We are excited to introduce you to Fundamentals of Human Resource Management: People, Data, and Analytics. We wrote this book because human resource management (HRM) is important and has the potential to be an essential business partner in making data-informed decisions within organizations. In fact, the potential for HRM has never been greater than it is today. However, that potential will only be realized if business students are well versed in how people, data, and analytics work together. As you will read throughout this book, fluency with people, data, and analytics involves asking the right questions, gathering the right data to address questions, choosing appropriate analyses, and interpreting and communicating findings in a meaningful way. Recognizing and addressing ethical and legal challenges are critical for success. Today, organizations able to manage people, data, and analytics effectively are positioned to leverage HRM to inform and support organizational strategy.
