People analytics · Metric layer

One definition per metric. No more.

Attrition, absence, internal mobility, adoption, workforce cost. Five metrics, each defined once, sourced once, and owned by one person. HR and Finance stop arguing about whose number is right.

Process

Three steps. No mystery.

  1. 01

    You name the metric.

    Scope and owner agreed in a day. No metric ships without a named owner.

  2. 02

    We build the definition.

    One formula, one source system, tested against two years of history.

  3. 03

    You get the dashboard.

    Live, with thresholds and an owner. HR and Finance read the same number.

Evidence · Structure

Structure comes first. The numbers come after.

Every dashboard traces back to one source system and one formula. No metric ships until HR and Finance agree on the definition.

Dashboard anatomy

EXAMPLE STRUCTURE

What every dashboard contains.

  • One metric definition, signed off by HR and Finance
  • One source system per metric, no manual reconciliation
  • Thresholds and alerts, routed to the named owner
  • A two-year baseline, so trends mean something

Every number traces back to a source field. No dashboard ships without an owner who can explain it in a board meeting.

  1. Summary

    8% of the report

    One page. Leadership can decide straight away.

  2. Findings with evidence

    34% of the report

    Five findings, every claim backed by a verbatim quote.

  3. Actions

    28% of the report

    Sequenced for 30, 60 and 90 days, with an owner and a measure.

  4. Method and scope

    14% of the report

    How it was done, so the conclusion can be challenged.

  5. Appendix

    16% of the report

    Transcripts, coding and lineage. All traceable.

The findings carry the report. Method and appendix make it auditable.
