4th Annual Conference on Human Capital Innovation in Technology & Analytics

Presented by

Organizational Behavior, Systems & Analytics Program at NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering

Conference Theme:

Driving Diversity & Inclusion with Analytics: A Key to Winning the War for Talent

Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) is an imperative for companies facing talent shortages and is widely acknowledged to be a critical driver of innovation and competitiveness. The labor market of the future will be much more diverse than the labor market of today. This creates an imperative for organizations because so many have struggled to improve diversity and to realize true inclusion. Executives often have grown weary of such efforts when progress has been elusive. Human Capital Analytics (HCA) is a critical part of the solution, grounding discussion in the specific organizational context, engaging executives, and facilitating evidence-based strategy development. The most effective D&I strategies - and talent strategies generally - are driven by such analytics and the implied solutions, which traverse all Human Capital systems.

Speakers at this Conference include prominent thought leaders and experts who will reveal how HCA is applied to drive D&I strategy to win the "War for Talent". This is a valuable opportunity to hear from and network with these leading practitioners.
