ATTN Talent Leaders: Your Data is Your Superpower ??♂? We’re bringing together senior Talent Executives for an exclusive roundtable on workforce insights, hiring strategies, and the power of data-driven decision-making. February 26th Session: This month, we’re joined by Patrick Hagerty, a mathematician, data scientist, and HR analytics expert who has helped organizations - from Wall Street to Capitol Hill - turn data into a competitive advantage. Patrick will discuss moving beyond gut-feel, subjective (and often biased) decision-making to a data-driven approach that transforms workforce planning and business outcomes. In this session, moderated by Kelly (Lynch) Russell & Michael Falato, you will learn the valuable insights possible when you uncover hidden patterns in your workforce data and connect with other Talent leaders facing similar challenges.

This article caught our attention because it offers insights into how leaders can navigate today’s shifting legal landscape while staying true to their mission and driving organizational productivity.
