Your analysis is brilliant—but does anyone understand it? In many organizations, HR analytics insights never reach decision-makers because they're buried in jargon and technical detail. This course shows you how to bridge that gap. You'll apply your understanding of why the same data lands differently depending on the audience—and how to frame findings for executives, managers, and employees. You'll draft a one-page executive summary that translates turnover statistics into plain-language recommendations using a structured template. You'll also use AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude to refine your communication, while practicing the verification skills that ensure accuracy. Through realistic role plays, you'll practice delivering findings under pressure—including a hallway conversation with a time-strapped CEO and a structured walkthrough with a detail-oriented CFO. In coach dialogues, you'll navigate conflicting stakeholder feedback and learn to address requests for 'more data' by strengthening your narrative instead. Designed for HR professionals, people analytics practitioners, and anyone who needs to turn workforce data into action. Basic familiarity with HR analytics concepts is helpful. Access to free ChatGPT or Claude recommended.
