What is people analytics and what questions does it answer?
People analytics is the practice of using data to make better decisions about an organization's workforce. It includes descriptive analytics (what happened), diagnostic (why), predictive (what will happen), and prescriptive (what to do). Common questions include which employees are at risk of leaving, which managers drive the best outcomes, where pay gaps exist, and which programs actually move engagement. The discipline grew from HR reporting in the 2010s to a dedicated function with data scientists at most large employers.
