HR departments today are sitting on an ever-growing pool of data, spanning productivity and personal development reviews, competency profiles, staff satisfaction surveys, and more. The sheer volume has historically made it difficult for companies to leverage the data, with a 2017 survey<\/a> by Insight Avenue finding that 46% of HR professionals struggle to make better use of their people info.<\/p>\n

But the tide has begun to turn, thanks in part to the emergence of platforms that promise to reconcile and analyze the data in an automated \u2014 or semi-automated \u2014 fashion. A\u00a02018 KPMG report<\/a>\u00a0found that 82% of organizations were planning to either begin using or increase their use of big data and analytics in HR in the short term. And according<\/a> to Bersin by Deloitte\u2019s 2017 High-Impact People Analytics research, 69% of organizations with 10,000 employees or more now have a \u201cpeople analytics\u201d team.<\/p>\n

People analytics \u2014 which Gartner defines as \u201cthe collection and application of talent data to improve critical talent business outcomes\u201d \u2014 is what Enboarder<\/a>, an HR software development company based in Sydney, Australia, claims to enable. Enboarder, which offers tools for onboarding, learning and development, change management, diversity and inclusion, and employee transition in the workplace, today announced that it raised $32 million in a series B funding round, bringing the company\u2019s total raised to $50 million.<\/p>\n

Data-driven HR<\/h2>\n

Enboarder was founded in 2015 by Brent Pearson, who previously cofounded HRX, a recruitment and placement process outsourcing firm. Pearson also served as GM at talent acquisition company Monster Government Solutions, VP at career platform LiveCareer, and CEO of blockchain-based customer loyalty startup Reffind. <\/p>\n

\u201cIn the current fierce environment, only the organizations that can secure, retain, and grow the best talent will thrive. With HR playing such a critical role in this, it\u2019s imperative that their initiatives are as effective and successful as they can be,\u201d Pearson told VentureBeat via email. \u201cBut [t]he clunky and outdated systems HR is often associated with just won\u2019t cut it anymore. The great thing about Enboarder specifically is also that it takes a lot of pressure off IT, as the system is built in a way that HR can be in the driver seat. Not only can HR build their own journeys out without the support of IT but they can also continuously remain agile and easily make changes and scale without relying on IT.\u201d<\/p>\n
