Making Analytics Work Where People Work with Luka Babić

In this episode of the ScienceForWork podcast, our host, Matt Lampe, talks with Luka Babić—VP of Product at Culture Amp and former co-founder of Orgnostic. We explore what it really takes to make people analytics usable and impactful.

We discuss how analytics, in people-focused domains, requires structure, rhythm, and contextual awareness. Luka unpacks why adoption is still such a challenge, and how aligning insights with recurring organizational events and designing intentional practices between HR and managers can help bridge the gap between insight and sustained action.

Whether you’re a researcher, practitioner, or builder, this conversation offers grounded takeaways about designing analytics that support behavior change where it matters most—at work.

In this episode:

• Why people analytics needs more than dashboards

• The role of event-driven design in driving adoption

• What engagement analytics got right—and how to apply it elsewhere
