People Analytics made simple for HR, People Operations and Six Sigma Projects

Today after the outbreaks of Covid-19 pandemic, human resource (HR) leaders and operations managers are required to lead the organizations in digital transformation for business growth. According to survey of Payscale in Hong Kong, the average basic annual salary of a Analytics Manager is HK$638,713. In 2019, a study of myHRfuture revealed that 28% of respondents rated “people analytics” as the most-wanted competency.

Managers in people operations need to examine staff data and conduct simple surveys to derive insights and align decisions with strategic corporate objectives. However, they cannot solely depend on expensive consultancy or the busy in-house data analysts to perform these simple tasks for them.

5 Whys and Fishbone Diagram are effective tools that can be used to locate the roots causes of a problem.

5 Whys is a problem solving tool that helps to get to the root of a problem. The basic idea is to ask “Why?” whenever a problem is encountered. Typically, the initial response will not trace back to the root of the problem it will only be a symptomatic representation of the overall issue.

Fishbone Diagram goes by several names (Ishikawa, Cause & Effect, etc.) and there are a variety of ways to use. It is primarily a tool for organizing information to establish and clarify the relationships between an effect and its main causes.
