The key is to understand what the boardroom is looking for:
What we know…
• Business leaders are looking for HR to take a more data driven approach.
• The problem is HR is not using analytics particularly well, if at all.
• Why is this?
1. Lack of data.2. If data is available it quickly goes out of date.3. Traditional methods of gathering staff feedback can be time consuming.4. Poor analytics means you can spend a lot of time mining the data to find the insight.

The 2nd P&L – Your People & Leaders.
Traditional P&L
2nd P&L
• Retrospective and looks at the outputs of a business.
• It gives a one dimensional view as its only looking at the tangible outcomes.
• It doesn’t impact on future inputs.
• Stands for People and Leadership.
• Focuses on the intangible inputs into a business from your People and Leadership.
Traditional Profit & Loss
The 2nd P&L
Combining the traditional P&L with the 2nd P&L gives you a 3D view of a business. It provides a link between the people within an organisation and the financial
performance.
We use the 4As as a blueprint for successful programs to ensure progress is being made and the culture of always measuring is embedded.
After all what gets measured - gets managed, and this mindset appeals to the boardroom.

The Engagement See-Saw.
• Imagine the company on one side of the see-saw and the employee on the other.
• To create an engaging program the see-saw needs to be balanced.
• If the company asks too many questions too often the see-saw tilts.
• Likewise if the company asks too few questions too infrequently the see-saw tilts the other way.
• The key is to identify the right number of questions and the frequency in order to balance the see-saw.

Reporting to the board.
• We help HR departments produce their own 2nd P&L Statement:
Trends per question
Trend charting tool
Trends per individual
Trend Analysis & Benchmarking.
• Its important to be able to show trends and track results against targets and benchmarks.
• This provides a strategic focus that appeals to business leaders.

Tips for Introducing People Analytics.
September 15 2016
What are the right questions to ask?
• Align questions to your company values.
• Think about the objectives for the program.
• What questions are going to make the boardroom take note?
• Don’t ask leading questions.
• Only ask questions on what you are prepared to change.
• Just ask the critical questions.
• When tracking trends - think about the timing of repeat questions.
• Sanity check the questions.

Successfully introducing a people analytics program.
1 Position the program correctly: Create a shared vision and generate an environment for change.
Be patient: Look for innovation, not instant perfection.
Take the pain: You may not like the results or even agree with them, but if your people are thinking it, then its their reality.
Load it for success: Make progress on multiple fronts and focus on aggregated marginal gains.
Report back: Tell your people what the results have been and what you’re doing with them.

The Results - Case Study

Case Study.
• We started working with the client in Dec 2011.
• Over the past 5 years they have grown significantly and The Happiness Index has played a part in ensuring their culture wasn’t lost during growth.
“We have had thirty-three quarters of consecutive growth and we put this down to our focus on
people. At our board meetings we analyse ‘The 2nd P&L’ which reports how our staff and clients
are feeling about working with us and we combine it with the traditional financial P&L to help us
forecast, plan and prioritise the key actions the board need to take in order to make a difference
to the company.”

• Using pulse surveys ensures engagement stays on the agenda.
