This week has been all about Data and Business Impact discovery.
Working in the Health space, you could be forgiven for thinking it’s not a particularly commercial environment, but Business Impact is where the TA prove their worth and it’s important in every Industry. Did you know that TA not filling a Dental Assistant in one of our dental practices can impact daily revenue by 6%? This is when your Finance and Business Leaders sit up and take notice of what you have to say. A question I would have you ask yourself is, are you reporting merely on TA productivity, or do you extend this further to Business Impact?
There are 4 key areas I leverage Data and Analytics:
- Predictive Analytics: Analysing historical data, to forecast future hiring needs and trends, allowing the team to build talent pipelines proactively.
- Benchmarking: Analytics offers benchmarks for comparing recruitment performance against industry standards or internal goals, helping identify strengths and areas for improvement.
- Resource Allocation: Data-driven insights guide how we allocate resources, ensuring that time, budget, and effort are directed toward the most impactful activities.
- Process Optimisation: Monitoring and analysing recruitment metrics help pinpoint bottlenecks and inefficiencies, leading to a more efficient recruitment process.
Leveraging data in process improvement will allow us to identify inefficiencies and implement targeted solutions, streamlining workflows and boosting productivity. By continuously monitoring and analysing key performance metrics, we can make informed decisions that drive sustained operational improvements.
I’m a firm believer in showing evidence-based validation of the transformation impact on ROI by tracking reduced operational costs, increased productivity, and higher retention rates, comparing these metrics before and after implementing data-driven improvements.
Now shifting gear from TA Productivity into Business Impact. I met with one of my key Stakeholders, our Finance Business Partner. Together we are able to conduct financial analyses to quantify cost savings and revenue growth directly attributable to these enhanced processes, demonstrating a clear return on investment, and… showcasing the impact that Talent has on the business.
Here’s what caught my attention this week:
