The Fundamentals of People Analytics
If one were to try and pin down origins of the field of people analytics, I would propose we start in the year 1911 when three events that represent the foundational ingredients to our emerging profession took place. In this year, Fredrick Taylor published his seminal Principles of Scientific Management, Charles Finley merged three firms into the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company (later renamed International Business Machines), and Karl Pearson founded the world?s first university statistics department at the City University of London. Mix the scientific method applied to organizations, scaling data systems, and advanced statistical knowledge in about equal parts, give them a bit over a century to simmer, distill, and age and voila, you have modern people analytics! Readers will find all three of these ingredients mixed with a few more contemporary spices in The Fundamentals of People Analytics.
