Predictive Analytics uses statistics to help firms address problems and make talent decisions.
While ~50% of companies are using Online Assessments…just 14% of HR organizations in the U.S are using predictive analytics to make talent decisions.*
Most HR organizations have been slow to adopt analytics – too slow, in fact, in the minds of many impatient business leaders.
* Bersin by Deloitte’s study (2013)

Execs Like Dashboards !
If you can visually present in an intuitive way the impact that multiple variables have on a key outcome, you will more easily make your point to the Executive Leadership Team.
Remember they are accustom to looking at Dashboards for the business.
MS Office or equivalent are fine…..there are also some really “Geeky Cool” Data Visualization tools available these days.
