In this fourth podcast in our virtual coffee house exchange our regular SSON HR columnist Simon Brown asks Ger Hussey to share his People Analytics expertise in detail.

The podcast draws on Ger's work in this area for recent clients including the National University of Ireland - Galway where he lectures in Business in the Modern World . Ger is also completing an Academic Case Study of People Analytics which complements his GlaxoSmithKline experience in building People Analytics as an HR functional area of expertise.
