Definition
• A Scorecard is a measurement tool of how well an entity is doing. It comprises
several KPIs/metrics and it often includes more than one area. A Scorecard (as
we will see in today’s example) will have some targets. A Dashboard is a
monitoring tool that shows how a company is performing relative to a
KPI/metric at any given time.
• SHRM Foundation “Transforming HR Through Technology” (Johnson, Gueutal):
An HR dashboard provides high level, real-time data related to the most
critical measures of HR success. This is done in a visual fashion, similar to the
dashboard on a car. Dashboards allow managers to examine information in
greater levels of specificity, which can help to quickly identify and focus on
potential problem areas. By linking the data on the dashboard to the key
organizational metrics, managers can more effectively see the ties between HR
outcomes and corporate goals.
• However, in every HR organization from the CHRO level down, the terms
have been used interchangeably. And for today’s purposes we will do the
same.

BUT, more often than not, we have to:
- Prioritize these initiatives
- Fight to build the business case
- Show the value it brings to the
company
- Get employees and managers to
embrace them

Data Drives Objectivity

“Our main business is not to see what lies
dimly at a distance but to do what lies
clearly at hand.”

Second Exercise
ACTION PLAN
• Email me for the templates ([email protected])
• Depending on where you are, begin circulating internally
- Tactical – start with the XLS
- Strategic – Use the scorecard
• Use as is, or tweak. When tweaking (not to be confused with twerking)
- Involve senior HR
- Involve HR BPs
• Find the data
- Is it in payroll (most is for the XLS)?
- Do you need finance?
- Do you need HR system (talent, recruiting, etc.)
• Roll it out small: Track internally for a couple of months maybe a quarter
• Give the CEO a glimpse ahead of the next leadership meeting
• HR leader must attend the meeting
- Invite his/herself in not part of the conversation
• Make a big splash calling out the FINANCIAL piece
26
Use Cases
• What do those guys in HR do? I know HR does a lot, but how well are they doing
it?
• Let me show you why HR needs to be part of the leadership team.
• Is HR helping us get the most out of our people? Are they balancing people and
business?
• I need to show that HR is doing all the right things so..
- I can add headcount
- I can get budget for technology investments
• Which teams are doing better? Can others learn from them?
• Employer branding
- We measure our success as a company by how well we engage our people, retain them,
etc…
- We are part of the community – look how many we have hired, etc.
27
Takeaways
• Single source of TRUTH
• Start small and drill down later
• Even if we don’t have the numbers, we can leave blank
• Work with business leadership, the higher the better
• It doesn’t matter how / what we measure as long as:
- Business is bought it
- We measure it consistently
• Measure monthly, report quarterly
• Tie it to a business metric (revenue per employee)
