Capital Analytics actively engages in groundbreaking research on human capital measurement in a number of key areas, including:
Employee Engagement
In today’s competitive environment, financial compensation alone is not the most effective approach to retain top employees. Employee engagement is critical. Through research — and its application to real-world client initiatives — Capital Analytics has illustrated the impact of tuition assistance programs on employee mobility and retention, the connection between sales manager training and a boost in sales, and the effectiveness of incentive programs for call center agents.
Social Media
With the rise in popularity of applications such as LinkedIn, YouTube and blogs, companies are asking if these new channels of communication are worthwhile investments to capture and share the collective knowledge of their organization. Capital Analytics is working with a leading technology company to assess the effectiveness of an internal social networking system.
Sales Readiness
Staying at the forefront of innovative research, Capital Analytics has partnered with Training Industry, Inc. to research, present and publish the current status of sales readiness initiatives. The company has also been retained by a Fortune 200 technology company to review its readiness program.
Diversity A changing workforce — characterized by a growing intergenerational gap, more women in management, greater geographic mobility and increasing interaction among people from different cultures — has made diversity a critical factor in business relationships. Capital Analytics has presented on the value of diversity assessments and is actively engaged in client research in this field.
Leadership Development Capital Analytics has evaluated mentoring programs for a technology firm and manager training programs for a financial institution, and is engaged with one of the largest consumer products companies in the US to evaluate a middle-management development program.
Non-Profit
Capital Analytics has also brought its expertise to the non-profit sector, coordinating the data collection and conducting both qualitative and quantitative analyses of workforce development initiatives to determine their impact on the community and their implications for public policy.
Workforce Planning
With record numbers of Baby Boomers retiring, a shortage of skilled workers and changing market demands, companies recognize the need to staff strategically. Capital Analytics is helping companies integrate and analyze existing organizational data to identify emerging workforce needs and create profiles of ideal candidates.
