How the obsession with quantifying human performance threatens education, medicine, business, government--and the quality of our lives

Today, organizations of all kinds are ruled by the belief that the path to success is quantifying human performance, publicizing the results, and dividing up the rewards based on the numbers. But in our zeal to instill the evaluation process with scientific rigor, we've gone from measuring performance to fixating on measuring itself--and this tyranny of metrics now threatens the quality of our organizations and lives. In this brief, accessible, and powerful book, Jerry Muller uncovers the damage metrics is causing and shows how we can begin to fix the problem. Filled with examples from business, medicine, education, government, and other fields, the book explains why paying for measured performance doesn't work, why surgical scorecards may increase deaths, and much more. But the book also shows that, when used as a complement to judgment based on personal experience, metrics can be beneficial, and it includes an invaluable checklist of when and how to use them. The result is an essential corrective to a harmful trend that increasingly affects us all.

Описание:

The social sector is undergoing a major transformation. We are witnessing an explosion in efforts to deliver social change, a burgeoning impact investing industry, and an unprecedented intergenerational transfer of wealth. Yet we live in a world of rapidly rising inequality, where social sector services are unable to keep up with societal need, governments are stretched beyond their means. Alnoor Ebrahim addresses one of the fundamental dilemmas facing leaders as they navigate this uncertain terrain: performance measurement. How can they track performance towards worthy goals such as reducing poverty or climate change, improving public health, or advancing human rights? What results can they reasonably measure and legitimately take credit for? This book tackles three core challenges of performance faced by social enterprises and nonprofit organizations alike: what to measure, what kinds of performance systems to build, and how to align multiple demands for accountability. It lays out four different types of strategies for managers to consider--niche, integrated, emergent, and ecosystem--and details the types of performance measurement and accountability systems best suited to each. Finally, this book examines the roles of funders such as impact investors, philanthropic foundations, and international aid agencies, and lays out how they can best enable meaningful performance measurement.

Data-Driven HR: Create Value with HR Metrics and HR Analytics

Which job applicants have hidden talents? Which job roles are most prone to long-term absenteeism? Which of your teams really satisfy customers? Many organizations wrestle with these questions, even as they sit atop a treasure trove of valuable information collected by their HR information systems and other business software.

This book, a Dutch best seller now translated into English, shows how to use the data you already have to answer burning questions like these. It demonstrates how you can progressively refine your HR analytics by defining, implementing, and monitoring HR interventions, policy, and strategy. This data-driven approach puts HR in a better position to help the organization improve its performance and increase employees' productivity and job satisfaction. HR metrics and HR analytics help you create value for the organization by: formulating business questions that are relevant to HR; using all available data, including big data; to reveal patterns and correlations within the organization; proactively identifying trends, risks, and opportunities; and developing predictive models.

"HR analytics will be essential for HR to continue to make a critical contribution to organizational strategy in the future."
Hein Knaapen, Global HR Director, ING

"HR analytics will be a game-changer in the long term. It will ensure that HRM is based on systematic scientific research that provides evidence of whether something works or not."
Jorrit van der Togt, EVP of HR Strategy & Internal Communications, Shell

This book is for anyone who is interested in understanding the advantages of data-driven HR policy and applying data analytics and related disciplines within their own organization and HR practice. Data-driven HR has advantages for all types of commercial, noncommercial, and government organizations. The book has been written with a number of audiences in mind: HR managers and directors, HR business partners, current and future HR analysts, HR consultants, business analysts, controllers and line managers who want to deepen their knowledge of the subject and make use of the opportunities presented by HR analytics to help them do their work.

This edition of the book, the first to appear in English, has also recently been revised to add an updated chapter on privacy and the protection of personal data, information on hypothesis-driven analysis versus data mining, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and self-learning software, and information on the Voice of the Employee.

"This book is one of a kind. It's substantial but deserves kudos for its thoroughness and readability."
Mark de Lat, director, Randstad Nederland

How the obsession with quantifying human performance threatens our schools, medical care, businesses, and government

Today, organizations of all kinds are ruled by the belief that the path to success is quantifying human performance, publicizing the results, and dividing up the rewards based on the numbers. But in our zeal to instill the evaluation process with scientific rigor, we've gone from measuring performance to fixating on measuring itself. The result is a tyranny of metrics that threatens the quality of our lives and most important institutions. In this timely and powerful book, Jerry Muller uncovers the damage our obsession with metrics is causing--and shows how we can begin to fix the problem.

Filled with examples from education, medicine, business and finance, government, the police and military, and philanthropy and foreign aid, this brief and accessible book explains why the seemingly irresistible pressure to quantify performance distorts and distracts, whether by encouraging "gaming the stats" or "teaching to the test." That's because what can and does get measured is not always worth measuring, may not be what we really want to know, and may draw effort away from the things we care about. Along the way, we learn why paying for measured performance doesn't work, why surgical scorecards may increase deaths, and much more. But metrics can be good when used as a complement to--rather than a replacement for--judgment based on personal experience, and Muller also gives examples of when metrics have been beneficial.

Complete with a checklist of when and how to use metrics, The Tyranny of Metrics is an essential corrective to a rarely questioned trend that increasingly affects us all.
