Learn moreIn Humanizing Human Capital, Solange Charas, PhD, and Stela Lupushor reframe traditional HR practices into a future-forward strategy to optimize human capital. Charas and Lupushor shift decision-making about people from a gut sense to an evidence-based approach—a critical and much-needed departure from the cross-your-fingers-and-hope-for-the-best approach of most traditional HR programs today.
Learn how to quantify and manage human capital in order to future-proof your financial returns. Humanizing Human Capital reveals a step-by-step method to apply analytics approaches to human capital while anticipating inevitable changes in the workforce landscape. This will enable human capital professionals to generate positive outcomes for all stakeholders and allow management to make decisions that work for the entire enterprise.
Through dozens of case studies, real-world situations, and twenty invaluable business principles, you will learn to: adopt a best-evidence versus best-practice approach to decision-making; shift your thinking so that you view human capital as a crucial investment rather than as a sunk cost; balance human capital analytics with the more human-centric elements of people management; increase value for all key stakeholders; and utilize methods to measure and optimize human capital efficiency, increasing your ROI.
Solange Charas, PhD, focuses on how to optimize the impact of human capital from a brand and financial perspective. Solange is a Distinguished Principal Research Fellow at the Conference Board, and is a faculty member at Columbia, USC, and NYU, teaching in their Masters of Human Capital Management programs. Previously, Solange served on public company boards and was the CHRO for three global organizations.
Stela Lupushor works with the Conference Board's Fortune 500 corporations-members on rethinking their workplace strategies. She leads Reframe.Work Inc., consulting on how to create inclusive workplaces through the use of design thinking, technology, and analytics, as well as amazing.community, a nonprofit expanding the work horizon for women forty-five-plus.
Melissa Redmond started her love affair with books when she was three. Her first introduction to audiobooks came at about the same time, when her dad, a Navy pilot, would read bedtime stories onto tapes and send them home while he was away on deployment. He did all the voices. Eventually, her love of the written word turned into a love of performance in various mediums. She graduated from the University of California San Diego with a degree in theater and has been working in theater, film, and voice-over ever since. Her voice has been described as "A little smirk, a little sparkle . . . and just the right amount of smartass." She's interested in a wide array of genres, with special affection for thriller, nonfiction, romantic comedy, and YA fantasy. When she isn't acting, she can be found hiking in the San Francisco Bay Area hills, dancing, and rescuing and rehabilitating injured marine mammals.
