About this ebook

In an era of heightened scrutiny, organizations must make smarter, more evidence-based decisions about investing in people.

Investing in People equips HR professionals and leaders with a proven framework for aligning human capital initiatives with strategic business outcomes. Drawing on cutting-edge research from psychology, economics, finance and accounting, the book shows how to evaluate HR programs - such as talent acquisition, engagement and learning - using foundational principles like risk, return and scale. It also offers tools to connect HR initiatives to metrics that matter to senior leadership, including financial performance and customer satisfaction.

With practical guidance for integrating HR into enterprise budgeting and strategy, this is an essential resource for building credibility and making HR decisions that drive results.
