Sensing Technology, Data Put People Analytics in a New Perspective
You may have heard that basketball players wear sensors on their clothing that provide data that coaches use to analyze players\u2019 movement, body stresses and other factors of their performance on the court. But you may not know that the arrangement of tables in an organization\u2019s cafeteria can give management information on employees\u2019 communication, interaction and potential to highly perform. It\u2019s true.\n\nSensing technology will transform the new world of work by indicating information we never thought possible. As with the cafeteria arrangement, what became clear was that the higher the number of people having lunch together led to higher performance, compared to employees who ate lunch with only two or three colleagues. \n\nSomething as simple as an identification badge will change the game over the next decade, and beyond, when it comes to what\u2019s happening at work. From there, we\u2019ll use sensing technology to change the way our organization\u2019s environment works, based on how people interact with each other, act throughout the day and collaborate with others to complete tasks.\n\nLearn more about the 2018 Workforce Planning & People Analytics Conference: http://www.hci.org/wfppa-conference/2018
