People vs. numbers. Which should matter more to your business success? The experts speak. Greta Roberts: \u201cNumbers are the language of business. If employees want to be valued, they need to be measured in a way that business understands ... as numbers.\u201d Haig R. Nalbantian: \u201cToo many organizations give lip service to the people side, but fail to apply real discipline to workforce management. They rely instead on intuition, benchmarks or so-called \u2018best practices\u2019 to inform their people-related decisions.\u201d Russ Campanello: \u201cIt\u2019s time to begin measuring, and thereby differentiating our business, with the human capital metrics that drive performance and generate value. We still value (and report) the buildings more than the people inside them.\u201d Steve Boese: \u201cRevenue per employee can tell you just about everything you need to know about your business.\u201d Henner Schliebs: \u201cDemocratizing analytics will be the big differentiator in 2013.\u201d Join us for Workforce Analytics: Real People, Real Numbers.
