1.   For each of the two hypothesis statements determine the types of data required to test your hypotheses (i.e. turnover rates, employee age, etc.) and the potential sources (internal and external, as applicable) of this data.

Hypothesis 1. The employee who feel not supported and engaged by their supervisor and colleagues have a higher chance of leaving the company. 

Hypothesis 2. Employees who don't feel being well compensated based on the level of their performance have a higher chance of showing unacceptable attendance and lower performance at work.

2.   Identify at least three stakeholders (for each hypothesis) who would need to be engaged if your hypotheses statements were to move forward as a workforce analytics project.

3.   Assuming you don't have existing data analytics talent already in HR, nor the ability to go out and hire a team, consider the partnership options in Chapter 13 and make a recommendation as to the best approach to take should a project go forward. Support your choice with relevant arguments.

Reference:

1. What are three significant people challenges? 

• Retention
• Performance Management and attendance
•  Employee engagement

2.  Are there other internal (i.e. org structure) or external (i.e., increased competition) challenges that are putting additional pressure on the organization?

Yes

•  salary and benefit benchmarking. 

External factor -

3.  Based upon the answers for Questions 1 and 2, two hypothesis statements to consider how workforce analytics could possibly help with these challenges.

Hyphothesis 1. The employee who feel not supported and engaged by their supervisor and colleagues  have a higher chance of leaving the company. 

 

Hyphothesis 2. Employees who don't feel being well compensated based on the level of their performance have a higher chance of showing unacceptable attendance and lower performance at work.
