Why This Matters

What It Is

Predictive performance analytics with flight risk correlation, high performer identification, succession readiness scoring, and performance trend analysis enabling data-driven talent decisions and 20-40% attrition reduction.

Current State vs Future State Comparison

Current State

(Traditional)

1. HR compiles annual performance ratings in Excel spreadsheet (3-5 rating categories). 2. HR calculates performance distribution: 10% top performers, 70% meets expectations, 20% below expectations.

  1. HR creates PowerPoint presentation showing performance by department for leadership review.
  2. No predictive analytics or flight risk correlation (high performers leave without warning).
  3. Succession planning ad-hoc based on manager opinions (no data-driven readiness scores).
  4. Performance trends not analyzed (is this employee improving, declining, plateauing?).

Characteristics

  • SAP SuccessFactors
  • Oracle HCM Cloud
  • Workday
  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance
  • ServiceNow Performance Analytics
  • Tableau
  • Power BI
  • Excel
  • Qualtrics

Pain Points

  • Data Silos and Integration Challenges: Fragmented data complicates aggregation and delays insights.
  • Data Quality Issues: Inaccurate or inconsistent data requires extensive cleansing, which is time-consuming.
  • Lack of Real-Time Insights: Reliance on periodic reporting limits timely decision-making.
  • Complexity of Analysis: Advanced analytics require specialized skills that may not be available in all HR teams.
  • User Adoption and Interpretation: Non-technical stakeholders may struggle to interpret complex analytics.
  • Dependence on Manual Processes: Many organizations still rely on manual data handling, which is prone to errors.
  • Limited Predictive Capabilities: Not all organizations utilize advanced analytics for forecasting performance issues.

Future State

(Agentic)

1. Performance Analytics & Insights Agent analyzes performance data to identify high performers: consistent top ratings, strong 360 feedback, goal overachievement, positive continuous feedback. 2. Agent correlates performance with flight risk: 'High performers with stagnant salary growth 40% more likely to leave within 6 months' or 'Top performers with no promotion in 3+ years at elevated attrition risk'. 3. Agent calculates succession readiness scores: 'Sarah ready for Director role (85% readiness: strong performance, leadership skills, lacks cross-functional experience)'. 4. Agent tracks performance trends: 'John's performance declining over last 3 quarters (4.5 → 4.0 → 3.5) - recommend manager intervention'. 5. Agent identifies engagement patterns: 'High performers in Engineering giving 30% less continuous feedback - potential morale issue, investigate'. 6. Agent provides talent insights dashboard: top performers by team, flight risk alerts, succession pipeline, performance trends for data-driven talent decisions.

Characteristics

  • Performance ratings history and trends over time
  • Continuous feedback volume and sentiment
  • 360 feedback results and peer ratings
  • Goal achievement and OKR completion rates
  • Compensation history (salary, bonus, promotion timing)
  • Engagement survey responses and sentiment
  • Attrition history and exit interview themes
  • Skills and competency assessment data

Benefits

  • 20-40% attrition reduction through proactive flight risk intervention
  • Data-driven succession planning with readiness scores vs manager opinions
  • High performer retention through targeted compensation and development interventions
  • Performance trend analysis enables early intervention before ratings decline
  • Engagement pattern detection surfaces team morale issues for investigation
  • Talent decisions shift from reactive (resignation response) to proactive (retention before departure)
