15 Why Data Analytics? The goal is to turn data into information, and information into insight. Carly Fiorina What gets measured, is managed. Peter Drucker I never guess. It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 15 If you treasure it, measure it. Sir Gus O Donnell Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted. Albert Einstein

16 Develop a plan to measure data and analytics. Success is dependent upon asking the right questions. q Start with the business problems: What are the challenges that keep your business leaders awake at night? Which of these can be solved with data analytics? q Do you have the right tools to succeed? Use big data and predictive analytics to give your recruiters better data feeds, talent dashboards and competency models. q Are you using your Applicant Tracking System (ATS) effectively? Does it integrate with data analytics? q What Big Data means to the Staffing Industry. Accurate pipeline planning, reduced cost-per-placement, increased candidate quality, improved time to fill. 16
