Next was "Job Architecture" by Ben Zweig. This book takes you through the Revelio Labs approach from its theoretical underpinnings, to the importance of defining jobs appropriately in a changing world, all the way to the high level technical implementation of workforce taxonomies. Especially if you're a practitioner, this book will serve as a good introduction to the area

Last was a fantastic talk by Ricardo Perez-Truglia on the relationship between pay transparency, salary negotiation, and the gender pay gap at WAPPP. Perez-Truglia nicely summarizes the state of the literature and implications for individuals and organizations.

**Shout-out to my network**
Do you know anybody working on the just launched #EU Union of Skills?

I'm really interested in the topic and having a tad of experience on it I would be keen to understand if/how I can contribute my 2 cents.

Last was "Data Driven" by Karen Levy. Uniquely positioned as a supposedly easily quantifiable workplace, the mandated rollout of electronic logging devices in long distance trucking has significantly transformed the industry. Levy pulls open the curtain on this critical but oft-overlooked industry, exposing the issues w/technological solutionism and workplace measurement. Highly recommend

Das war ein wirklich guter Workshop mit reger Beteiligung aus den Betriebsräten.

Als @miriamkl und Sonja Köhne ihre Projektidee auf der Labor.a 2020 vorgestellt haben, war ich sofort begeistert, aber auch etwas skeptisch, ob es tatsächlich gelingt, konkrete Konzepte zu entwickeln, wie #peopleanalytics im Sinne der Beschäftigten genutzt werden.

Der Workshop hat gezeigt, dass es nicht nur solche Konzepte gibt, sondern auch dass einige Betriebsräte schon daran arbeiten.

Da wurde die Förderung durch die @boeckler_de wirklich sinnvoll verwendet.

First was a fascinating talk by Michael Weatherburn on work motivation experiments at the Interwar Cocoa Works (!) at the University of London School of Advanced Study. This foray into "scientific" management highlights the truly absurd degree management can go in trying to quantify work as well as the issue with assuming that measurement can be objective or all-encompassing. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOGmPrsADKQ (2/6) #history #PeopleAnalytics #management

Next was an excellent talk by Fabian Stephany on the complementary benefits of learning new skills at @Weizenbaum_Institut. Using data from Upwork, Stephany investigates the contextual nature of the payoffs of learning a new skill for different types of workers with different existing skillsets, revealing a more nuanced view of skill acquisition benefits. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_KmSnpIV_0 (3/10) #PeopleAnalytics #economics

Next was a short discussion with Karen Ward Mahar on masculinity and the American business executive at the Hagley Museum and Library. Mahar details a manual for identifying executive potential - essentially a litany of physical characteristics - that shows how deeply discrimination was baked into management practices (and still is, just less explicitly) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFQQqlzFn1c (3/17) #history #PeopleAnalytics

Next was an essential conversation with @iajunwa (👋) on the quantified worker on the Business Scholarship Podcast. This is a good intro to Ifeoma's important work, highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBVvweshnos (6/17) #PeopleAnalytics

Last was a short discussion with James Leach on how corporate America measured aging from 1945-1986 at the Hagley Museum https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuJTMq5FI6Q (14/14) #history #PeopleAnalytics

Next was an illuminating conversation with Jiemin Tina Wei on studies on industrial and workplace fatigue from 1900-1950 and the complicated relationship with labor rights, corporate power, and political ideology at the Hagley Museum https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kp9BEqc6K_E (10/14) #history #PeopleAnalytics

@FAccT Next was a great talk by @hancheng on measuring multitasking using communication metadata and predicting team satisfaction with chat logs at Stanford University https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wy45BdDVrMs (6/9) #PeopleAnalytics

@ai6yr @andrewdessler Wait a little time and the same company will offer #PeopleAnalytics as well as #livestock management. But they will pay more for the cattle.

First was an informative talk by Diane Burton on how companies are currently using human capital metrics in executive comp at Cornell University ILR School. People analytics folks will want to listen to this, although as most of you know I think the metrics discussed here are not representative of what people metrics should be used for comp/what's possible https://www.youtube.com/live/dz3qyM0_A0k?si=-N2-EPyBKc9ULMex&t=750 (2/10) #PeopleAnalytics
