HR, We Have a Problem - The rise of the workforce systems leader in hr and why CHROs need them in 2025
In this episode of HR, We Have a Problem, Teri Zipper and guest Richard Rosenow, VP People Analytics Strategy at One Model, discuss the evolution of people analytics and systems thinking in HR. This conversation explores the role of "workforce systems leaders" who coordinate the people data supply chain across strategy, operations, technology, data, and analytics.
Key points covered include:
↪️ People analytics is best viewed as "listening at scale," allowing HR professionals to understand workforce dynamics through data while still leveraging their human-centered strengths.
↪️ A new "workforce systems leader" role is naturally emerging to coordinate the people data supply chain (strategy, ops, tech, data, analytics) and relieve overwhelmed CHROs
↪️ The biggest challenge in people analytics today isn't technology or data skills but driving organizational change and securing resources to implement insights.
↪️ Modern analytics platforms are making technology more accessible, allowing HR professionals to return to their core strengths while being data-informed.
