So far I'm finding of high value. Lots of good ideas and a very nice belnd of experts were asked to contribute.

[Prerna Munshi · Rating 3 out of 5]

How I wish HR books could undo some of their jargons. While it extends some brilliant and verifiable ideas, it also feels like a repetitive articulation, as if it intends to 'how to say it in a smarter and a trending way'

I found this book to be incredibly disappointing. Our HR department is on a path to increase the use and value of people metrics in our organization. We used this book for a book club with the team focused on Analytics. We found it sorely lacking. The theory behind Fitz-End's perspective on Analytics was not well laid-out, and the real world examples used provided very little insight or substance. The essays - written by a host of authors - we're not well connected either, leaving the book to feel like a mishmash. For someone looking to accelerate knowledge in HR Analytics, I would recommend passing in this book and finding another source.

Coming from a Stat and HR background, only two articles were truly extraordinary. Larry introductory level if that's what are you looking for.

This book was OK. I'm not a fan of Fitz-enz's writing style. The information is solid and useful for an HR professional.
