FREE ADMISSION – REGISTRATION REQUIRED   

The Conferences on Human Capital Innovation in Technology & Analytics have been organized annually since 2012 by the Department of Technology Management and Innovation at NYU Tandon School of Engineering.  Each year these Conferences focus on a different critical issue, bringing together prominent thought leaders and experts who are at the cutting-edge of Human Capital Analytics (HCA) and related technologies.

This year’s critical issue is “Career Path Analytics: New Ways in Identifying & Implementing Passages to Organizational Success”. Leading firms are rethinking their approach to career paths, which are central in creating effective talent management systems to recruit, develop and retain hard to replace high performers and knowledge workers.   With intense competition for top talent, effective career paths can play a critical role in an organization’s achieving its human capital strategic goals.   In recognition of this importance, firms have begun to focus on innovative research, including human capital analytics, to better understand the dynamics of career paths and the interventions that can promote success.  

This conference brings together thought leaders and experts from industry and academia to discuss new analytic approaches to career paths and how they can address the challenge of identifying and implementing passages to organizational success.  The conference will be attended by executives, managers and professionals, who range from human capital analytics experts to HR generalists, as well as faculty and students from various disciplines. This is a valuable opportunity to network with leaders in this emerging field and learn about how cutting-edge career path analytics can help win the “War for Talent”.

This Conference is presented in cooperation with Poly-SHRM (Society for Human Resource Management student chapter) and IHRIM (International Association of Human Resource Information Management).
