您如何描述联合利华的文化?
当我加入联合利华时,令人惊讶的是,我对公司了解不多。只是它是我们校园里最有抱负的雇主。每个人都希望成为公司的一部分,当然我知道一些消费者品牌,但不了解业务的复杂性。任何通过联合利华面试程序完成任务的人都会被选中,面试过程本身就是成功的。
为什么我留下来是另一回事。首先,这是一个关心有所作为的企业。当然,我们希望创造成果和利润,但我们也想创造一个更美好的世界,我们希望我们的员工和利益相关者参与这一旅程。源于联合利华所拥有的遗产的价值观和职业道德,这使我们有了更大的目标,它会破坏你。这是一种文化,让你想进来,每天都发挥最大的作用。20年后,我经历了如此多的经历和角色,但却没有疲倦和无聊的感觉,这让我一直在努力。
可持续发展如何成为业务战略的一部分?
联合利华的独特之处在于,商业战略的核心是可持续性。我们建立品牌的方式以及我们在整个业务中制定流程的方式都是可持续的设计。我们在未来四五年内制定了明确的路线图和目标。这是我们所做的一切的核心,每一个加入联合利华的人都参与其中,感觉被这种感觉所吸引,并为此感到自豪。
您面临哪些人才挑战?
今天,我们作为雇主的吸引力处于历史最高水平,因为我们通过校园调查,全世界的大学评分来衡量它。我们是我们雇用的40多个市场中的首选雇主。
但即使我们提高了吸引力的标准,我们的人才环境也会受到干扰,就像我们的客户和渠道被打乱一样。人才画布不再是同质的,我们业务的不同部分的人才需求是不同的,因此没有一个适合所有人。因此,我们需要能够塑造并提供一个在看似悖论的世界中取得成功的人才战略。一方面,随着技术寻求取代人,你就拥有了多余的人才。同样,在你想要提高技能的领域,无论是数字营销还是精准营销,你都有人才短缺 - 这些都是我们为未来培养技能所需要的,但却存在差距。在同一时间存在着太少而不够的二分法。
告诉我们您的雇主品牌战略?
雇主品牌战略来自我们的人才挑战; 在一个日益中断的世界中需要具有吸引力。没有一个雇主品牌活动或消息。当然,除此之外还有核心执行副总裁; 你不可能拥有一个全球雇主品牌,而是依靠它。每一次雇主品牌之争,每一次人才挑战都会在市场上赢得,而这正是真实时刻所在。这是我们雇主品牌战略的核心。
同样地,它正在逐渐远离你想要赢得所有胜利的地方,以赢得重要的地方。从一致的方法到差异化的方法,取决于您想要雇用的特定微细分市场。
它不再是关于公司传达的自上而下的活动和吸引力。这不再是事实的唯一来源。人才无处不在,你周围有关于你无法控制的谈话。因此,雇主品牌战略必须与真实的员工体验非常一致。因此,它不是一个从外到内的,而是一个由内而外的雇主品牌战略。
你是如何开发新的EVP的?
联合利华是一家打造优秀品牌的公司; 我们的雇主品牌必须反映这一点。就像我们制作任何产品品牌一样,我们接触了这个雇主品牌的发展。我们完成了一项详尽的研究,涵盖了300个内部和外部的声音,我们对竞争对手和我们认为有抱负的其他雇主品牌进行了基准测试。我们通过内部,外部,营销领导者,我们不同的目标受众对人才进行了广泛的测试和验证,并且在此过程中,我们了解到,对于雇主品牌产生影响,它必须是可信的,相关的,差异化的和有抱负的。
什么是新的EVP?
联合利华是一家真正关心有所作为的企业,这是我们雇主品牌和执行副总裁的核心。当你加入联合利华时,它不仅仅是一份工作; 你正在加入一个运动,以创造一个更好的企业,一个更美好的世界,一个更好的你。你不仅仅是你的职位,因为你通过自己的工作在世界上创造了更大的影响力。
我们价值主张的核心是我们建立领导者......我们为联合利华培养领导者,联合利华领导人继续成为世界其他地方的领导者。
什么支柱支撑着EVP?
目的力量 - 可持续发展是我们所做一切的核心。目标的力量是我们员工经验的核心,我们通过将您的目标付诸行动,您可以说您有权对世界和我们的业务产生积极影响。这不仅仅是一份工作; 这是一个通过做一些你热爱的事情来改变自己的机会。
成为催化剂 - 你可以成为世界变革的催化剂,你可以释放你的好奇心,你可以扰乱过程,你可以用你的开拓精神来实现目标。
卓越的不同 - 就像我们的产品品牌都不同,但他们在一个联合利华的保护伞下聚集在一起。作为个体,我们都是不同的; 我们可以把真正的自我带到工作中。在联合利华,我们可以结合差异来实现更大的目标。
超越 - 这不仅仅是一个公司,这是一个你可以超越的地方,体验的质量,互动的质量,当你提供更多,你得到更多。
这四大支柱使EVP成为独一无二的联合利华,特别是目的动力。
你如何沟通和激活这个?
我们很容易想出一个声明,一些我们都很兴奋的话。但最终,它必须被翻译,并且必须帮助我们赢得在我们赢得雇主品牌战斗的各个市场中的最佳人才。接下来发生的事情是我们将部署一些全球和本地渠道; 数字化,面对面,以更广泛地覆盖我们的员工价值主张。
我们还创建了一个旨在提升品牌知名度的英雄活动,它被称为“你不仅仅是你的职位”,而且它带出了目标力量这一整体概念,这对我们来说是一个品牌。我们相信这会产生大量的对话,并成为员工倡导的工具。
最后,我们不是建立雇主品牌的人。这是我们的员工,它是我们在50多个市场的雇主品牌经理,他们将与我们一起制定策略和本地激活想法,以实现这一目标。
你能与我们分享哪些艰苦的教训?
人们可以将公司的吸引力,雇主品牌视为理所当然,直到它消失为止。我是一个企业的一部分,总是享有非常有吸引力的地位,并获得最优秀的人才。我们听到了业务中的对话,“这种努力真的值得,我们为什么要把这么多的预算和资源投入雇主品牌?”。
而这就是你真正处于悬崖边缘的地方,这是一个真正值得关注的地方。在那个时候的那个行业中,我们踩下脚踏板,在最初几年没有发生任何事情,因为很明显,雇主品牌的力量不会在一两年内消失。但是慢慢地,我们开始看到人才质量的影响,这些影响会导致面试,接受其他报价的人数以及将其他竞争对手列为梦想雇主的人数。我们看到排名开始下降,比任何排名更重要的是你雇用的人才质量。
这不是立刻出现的东西,但幸运的是,对我们来说,其中一些指标给了我们一个真正的震撼,我们重置并回来了一声巨响。那是一个真正的谦卑时刻,这是一个我不会忘记的真正教训。
您如何衡量雇主品牌的投资回报率?
雇主品牌的投资回报大于通过指标和衡量工具看到的投资回报。这是最大的无形影响。
我怎么知道这个?如果您想衡量一项计划的影响,您必须考虑以下三点:
走廊里的谈话是什么?
什么是外部媒体说这个?
指标有哪些?
我们会考虑一些指标,例如申请人数量和接受报价的数量等。一个非常有趣的衡量标准是雇主品牌指数,它倾听社交媒体和在线发生的对话,从而对雇主的成功有一个综合的看法。品牌是,这是我们可以追踪的东西。
您对雇主品牌经理的三大建议是什么?
如果你感受到真正的激情,并且如果你感觉到它在你的骨头里,那么只能扮演这个角色。因为雇主品牌是一件你不能再做的事情,所以你不仅要感受到真正的热情。有一个明确的理由,说明为什么雇主品牌对您的业务有意义,并坚持这一点,无论内部的挑战或问题是什么。
向您所在行业的营销人员学习。使用相同的技术并围绕雇主品牌建立科学,这不仅仅是蓬松和创造性的东西。
您为员工和业务负责人注册的权利越多,您的工作就越容易,因为您创建的级联影响远大于您必须投入的努力。

以下为英文内容 : https://linkhumans.com/unilever/
Unilever is a global company selling fast-moving consumer goods, whose purpose it is to make sustainable living commonplace. You will recognize consumer brands such as Axe/Lynx, Ben & Jerry’s, Dermalogica, Dollar Shave Club, Dove, Hellmann’s, Knorr, Lipton, and Magnum. But what about the employer brand?
Anuradha Razdan is Vice President HR, Home Care and Head of Global Talent Attraction and Employer Brand at Unilever. In this interview, she talks us through the culture and purpose of the company, and about how they recently developed and launched a new employer value proposition (EVP).

How would you describe the culture at Unilever?
When I joined Unilever, surprisingly, I didn’t know much about the company. Only that it was the most aspirational employer that came to hire at our campus. It was the company that everyone wanted to be a part of, sure I knew some of the consumer brands but not the intricacies of the business. Anyone who made it through the Unilever interview process felt so thoroughly selected, the interview process was a success in itself.
Why I’ve stayed on is another matter. First and foremost, this is a business that cares about making a difference. Of course, we want to create results and profits, but we also want to create a better world, and we want our employees and stakeholders to be part of this journey. The values and professional ethics that stem from the legacy that Unilever has, and that has kept us with the larger purpose, it spoils you. It’s a culture that makes you want to come in and give your best every day. 20 years down the line, I’ve been through so many experiences and roles, and yet there has been no sense of fatigue & boredom, and that has kept me going.
How is sustainability part of the business strategy?
What is unique with Unilever is that the business strategy has sustainability at its heart. The way we build our brands and the way we craft processes across the business are all sustainable by design. We have a clear roadmap and goals that we have set across the next four or five years. It’s at the heart of everything we do, and everyone who is a part of Unilever is enrolled in this, feels bought into this and feels proud of this.
What talent challenges are you faced with?
Today our attractiveness as an employer is at an all-time high, as we measure it through campus surveys, university scores across the world. We’re the #1 employer of choice in more than 40 markets where we hire.
But even as we raise the bar on our attractiveness, our talent context is being disrupted, just like our customers and channels are being disrupted. The talent canvas is no longer homogenous, and the talent needs in different parts of our business are different, and therefore there is no one-size-fits-all. Hence, there is a need for us to be able to shape and deliver a talent strategy that can be successful in a world of seeming paradoxes. On the one hand, you have surplus talent as technology seeks to replace people. Equally, you have talent shortages in areas where you want to ramp up skills, whether it’s digital or precision marketing – these are where we need to build skills for the future, but yet there are gaps. There is a dichotomy of too little and not enough at the same time.
Tell us about your employer brand strategy?
The employer brand strategy draws from our talent challenges; the need to be attractive in a world that is increasingly disrupted. There is no one employer brand campaign or message. Of course, there is a core EVP but other than that; you can’t have one global employer brand and rest on that. Every employer brand battle, every talent challenge is won in the market, that’s where the moment of truth is. That’s at the heart of our employer brand strategy.
Equally, it’s moving away from a view where you want to win everywhere to winning where it matters. From a consistent approach to a differentiated approach depending on what the specific micro-segments you want to hire are.
It’s no longer about one top-down campaign and attractiveness that is communicated by the company. That is no longer the single source of truth. Talent is everywhere, and there are conversations about you, around you that you don’t control. Therefore the employer brand strategy has to be something which is very consistent with the real employee experience. And thus it’s not an outside-in, but an inside-out employer brand strategy.
How did you develop the new EVP?
Unilever is a company that builds excellent brands; our employer brand has to be a reflection of this. We approached this employer brand development just like we craft any of our product brands. We completed an exhaustive piece of research, covering 300 internal and external voices, we benchmarked our competitors, and other employer brands we think are aspirational. And we extensively tested and validated this with talent internally, externally, marketing leaders, our different target audiences, and in that process, we learned that for an employer brand to make an impact, it has to be credible, relevant, differentiating and aspirational.
What is the new EVP?
Unilever is a business that genuinely cares about making a difference, and this is at the core of our employer brand and EVP. When you join Unilever, it is not just a job; you are joining a movement to create a better business, a better world, and a better you. You are more than your job title because you create a much bigger impact in the world through the work that you do.
At the heart of our value proposition is that we build leaders… we develop leaders for Unilever, and Unilever leaders go on to be leaders elsewhere in the world.
What pillars underpin the EVP?
Purpose Power – sustainability is at the core of everything we do. The power of purpose is at the heart of our employee experience, where we say that you are empowered to make a positive impact on the world and our business, by bringing your purpose into action. This is more than a job; this is an opportunity to make a difference by doing something you’re passionate about.
Be the Catalyst – you can be a catalyst for change in the world, you can unleash your curiosity, you can disrupt processes, you can use your pioneering spirit to make things happen.
Brilliantly Different Together – like our product brands are all different, and yet they come together under one Unilever umbrella. As individuals, we are all different and yet; we can bring our real selves to work. In Unilever, we can combine our differences to achieve greater things.
Go Beyond – this is not just a company, this a place where you can go beyond, with the quality of experiences, the quality of interactions and when you give more, and you get more.
These four pillars make the EVP uniquely Unilever, especially Purpose Power.
How do you communicate and activate this?
It’s very easy to come up with a statement, a few words which we all get excited about. But at the end of the day, it has to be translated and has to help us win the best talent in the various markets where we win the employer brand battles. What’s happening next is that we will deploy a number of global and local channels; digital, face-to-face to give a wider reach to our employee value proposition.
We also created a hero campaign which is designed to boost brand awareness, it’s called “You’re more than your job title,” and it brings out this whole notion of purpose power which is so core to us as a brand. And we believe this will generate a lot of conversations and serve as a vehicle for employee advocacy.
Finally, we’re not the people who build the employer brand. It’s our employees, it’s our employer brand managers in over 50 markets, and they will work with us to tailor strategies and local activation ideas to bring this to life.
What hard lessons can you share with us?
One can take attractiveness of a company, of an employer brand for granted until it goes away. I was part of a business which always enjoyed the position of being very attractive and getting the best of the best talent. We heard conversations in the business along the lines of “is this effort really worth it, why should we put so much budget and resource into employer brand?”.
And that is the point where you’re really at the edge of the cliff, and that’s a real watch out. In that business at that point in time, we took our foot off the pedal, and nothing happened in the first few years because obviously, the power of an employer brand is not something that fades in a year or two. But slowly and slowly we started seeing the impact in the quality of talent that would turn up for interviews, in the number of people who would accept other offers and who would list other competitors as dream employers. We saw rankings beginning to dip, and more important than any ranking is the quality of talent that you hire.
This is not something that shows up immediately, but luckily for us, some of these indicators gave us a real jolt, and we reset and came back with a bang. That was a real moment of humility, and it’s a real lesson I will not forget.
How do you measure ROI on employer brand?
The return on investment of an employer brand is bigger than what one might see through metrics and measurement tools. It’s the intangible impact which is the biggest.
How would I know this? If you want to measure the impact of an initiative you have to look at three things:
What are the conversations in the hallways?
What is the external press saying about this?
What are the metrics saying?
We look at metrics such as the volume of applicants and how many accept offers etc. One very interesting measurement is the Employer Brand Index which listens to social media and conversations taking place online, to come to a compositive view of what the success of the employer brand is, and this is something we can track over time.
What are your top 3 tips to employer brand managers?
Only take this role on if you feel real passion and if you feel it in your bones. Because employer brand is a thing you cannot do as one more thing, it’s not just a job you have to feel true passion for this. Have a clear rationale as to why employer brand makes sense to your business and stick to that no matter what the challenges or questions might be internally.
Learn from the marketers in your business. Use the same techniques and build a science around employer brand, it’s not just a thing that’s fluffy and creative.
The more you enroll employees and business leaders to take ownership of this, the easier your work becomes because then you create a cascading impact which is far greater than the effort you have to put in.

往期回顾:
Geetanjali在2017年9月在费城举行的人力分析与未来工作会议上发言要点回顾:
MERCK&CO.的人力分析团队
这个团队由三支柱组成:咨询、高级分析、报告和数据可视化
创建一个数据驱动的文化:高层领导的支持对于人员分析功能的成功至关重要
在人力分析中创造职业道路:一个能够提供发展和职业发展的组织和领导者,可以成为吸引和留住人才的关键因素。

领导人员分析团队
问7、在谈到你作为一个人分析领导者的角色时,你会对这个角色的新手或者将来想成为一个人分析负责人的人提出什么建议呢?
分享五个我认为普遍适用的特性,并且对于成为这个领域的有效领导者很重要。
优先考虑:对于人员分析领导者来说,学习如何无情地优先考虑团队将花费时间和精力的项目是至关重要的。
位置: 一个好的领导者知道如何找到合适的机会去重新定位、结合和展示这项工作。这不仅对获得声望和对人员分析的认可很重要,而且对提升团队的士气也很重要。
连接: 当你建立起新的职业联系时,你也开始建立友谊,这是一个支持网络,可以帮助你在这个相当模糊的、新的人力分析空间中导航。
与时俱进:作为一个优秀的人员分析领导者,重要的一点是要跟上外部变化的步伐,并将这种学习带回您的业务中
发展:一个有效的领导者需要投入时间和精力来建立自己的内部和外部网络,并与他们的团队分享他们的进
问8、我观察到的一个挑战是,作为一个人分析的领导者,你必须平衡在内部构建能力的重大挑战,同时关注在外部快速发展的领域。作为一名分析人士的领导者,你如何平衡这两个优先事项,以及你如何了解公司外部发生的事情?
尽可能多地阅读各种不同的出版物(博客、文章、白皮书、书籍),这些内容让我与人力分析的各个方面:从社会科学到人工智能都保持联系。
此外,与来自不同行业的其他从业者建立联系很有帮助,我通过非正式的和正式的对等网络进行联系。
最后,我试着每年参加一些活动来学习新的东西和认识新的人。
人力分析的未来
问9、你认为人力分析的主要趋势是什么?
我认为人力分析中的一些“热点领域”将在未来继续变得“更热”。
我还认为,随着研究的增长和越来越多的组织对这一领域的投资,网络的力量将得到充分的挖掘和释放。
最后,要实现所有这些类型的分析,最重要的领域之一将是关于数据使用、隐私和人员分析领域的安全性的伦理研究。
问10、我们如何平衡我们能做什么以及我们应该做什么? 谈谈你对道德和隐私等方面的关注。
过度反应或倾向于采用过于保守的方法,这可能会妨碍人员分析领域的一些重要工作。
话虽如此,与适当的实践专家密切合作,就业法律、隐私法律、伦理、通信、业务合作,和工人委员会合作是一个很好的方式,以确保除了工作的合法性。
另一种从道德角度是预先与内部客户分享你分析的可能结果,并向他们清楚地说明在每个场景中他们将采取什么行动。
在人力分析领域工作类型需要把伦理放在最重要的日程上
英文原文:
LEADING THE PEOPLE ANALYTICS TEAM
7. Turning towards your role as a People Analytics Leader, what would your advice be to someone who is new to this role or who aspires to be a Head of People Analytics in the future?
I think everyone has different strengths and experiences, which means their approach will vary with regards to them proving successful as a people analytics leader. But based on my personal experiences and observations of others, I can share five attributes that I think apply universally and are important to being an effective leader in this space.
Prioritise: Whether you have a small or large people analytics team, it will never be big enough to meet all the demands of your clients, particularly as awareness of the team’s capabilities grow. So, it is critical for the people analytics leader to learn (and teach!) how to relentlessly prioritise the projects on which the team will spend its time and effort. A good rule of thumb is to think about the magnitude of business impact that an analysis has the potential to deliver, or a key relationship that it can help build in the business for future collaborations and sponsorship. Many teams even use formal prioritisation grids to help the process, but ultimately the leader needs to ensure that the criteria used to allocate resources to projects aligns with the vision and mission of the people analytics team (which in turn, should align with the objectives of the enterprise).
It is critical for the people analytics leader to learn (and teach!) how to relentlessly prioritise the projects on which the team will spend its time and effort.
Position: A critical skill for a people analytics leader is the ability to effectively position analyses before the right decision-makers at the right time to maximise positive outcomes and build a strong people analytics brand. This is probably one of, if not the most, important part of being a people analytics leader. On many occasions, brilliant workforce analyses have been underutilised in their original scope, but a good leader knows how to find the right opportunities to repurpose, combine and present this work. This is not only important in gaining prestige and recognition for people analytics, but also for boosting the morale of the team.
Connect: There is a small, but growing, community of people analytics leaders globally who collectively have a spectacular amount of experience and knowledge. Fortunately, this community is inclusive and generous, in terms of sharing their knowledge and connections with others in the field. The group is a great resource to learn about new technologies, techniques, vendors, and also receive tips and tricks that can help a new leader to avoid mistakes and grab the right opportunities. Most importantly, as you build new professional connections you also begin building friendships that are a support network to help you navigate this fairly ambiguous, new(ish) space of people analytics.
Evolve: Since a people analytics leader needs to have some depth in analytical methods, it is always a good idea to read, listen and learn. Thanks to social media there are amazing resources available, many of them free, that any analytics leader can and should leverage to keep oneself updated and evolving. There are some extremely prolific writers (like David Green!) who share both original and curated content on various forums including LinkedIn. Whether you are looking for detailed tutorials on advanced data science methods or want to learn about the latest technological breakthrough and its application to people data, there is a publication, podcast, or video out there on it. Another reason why this mind set of curiosity and awareness is important is because the people analytics space is sensitive primarily due to ethics and privacy reasons; and keeping a handle on that also demands a leader who keeps their eyes and ears open. An important part of being a strong people analytics leader is to keep up with the pace of change externally and bring that learning back to your business.
An important part of being a strong people analytics leader is to keep up with the pace of change externally and bring that learning back to your business
Develop: Last, but certainly not the least, a critical part of being a good people analytics leader is simply being a good leader. This implies being someone who invests in the development of their team. It is of particular importance because it is a space that has attracted a lot of exceptional talent, but still has somewhat limited opportunities for advancement. Therefore, an effective leader needs to invest time and effort in building their own internal and external network; and share it with their teams for their advancement. They should also be committed to actively finding or creating opportunities for their team members to learn new skills and develop themselves as multi-faceted professionals.
An effective leader needs to invest time and effort in building their own internal and external network; and share it with their teams for their advancement
8. One of the challenges I’ve observed in being a people analytics leader is that you have to balance the significant challenge of building capability internally whilst keeping an eye externally on what is a fast-developing field. As a people analytics leader, how do you juggle these two priorities, and how do you keep abreast of what is happening outside the organisation?
I strive to practice the same behaviours that I would advise new people analytics leaders to try. For example, I follow and subscribe to content by certain thought leaders in people analytics and read as many varied publications as possible (blogs, articles, whitepapers, books) which keep me connected to the different aspects of people analytics; from social science to artificial intelligence.
In addition, it really helps to connect with other practitioners in the field from different industries, which I do via both informal and formal peer networks. This helps to broaden one’s worldview, spark new ideas, and offers a forum to ask questions of your peers. Most likely, if you are facing a people analytics quandary, there is a leader out there who has faced it too and would be willing to share their experience.
Finally, there are a plethora of great conference events out there, and the quality and number of these keeps rising every year. I try to participate in at least a few such events every year to learn new things and meet new people.
THE FUTURE OF PEOPLE ANALYTICS
9. What do you believe will be the main trends moving forward in people analytics?
I think that a number of “hot areas” in people analytics will continue to get “hotter” in the future. The idea of employee experience will grow even wider with focus on the end-to-end experience all the way from being a prospective candidate stage to becoming an alumni of the company. This is likely to grow simultaneously with the focus on managing and optimising a new, fluid workforce that may at any one time be full-time and freelance, human and robotic.
I also think that the power of networks will be fully explored and unleashed as research grows and more organisations invest in this space. The applications of network analysis are so varied and relevant, that it should continue to gather steam in the future.
Finally, from my perspective to enable all these types of analyses, one of the most critical areas that will grow in importance will be the study of ethics relating to data use, privacy and security in the space of people analytics.
10. Finally, how do we balance what we can do with what we should do? How concerned are you about areas such as ethics and privacy?
This is a great question, and a difficult one to answer. The frontiers of what is possible are being pushed at a break-neck speed thanks to ever larger datasets being at our disposal faster, and at cheaper cost. And that pace makes it tough to process the implications in real time. In fact, this often leads to an overreaction or the inclination to adopt an overly conservative approach that can hamper some great work in the people analytics space.
That being said, I believe that an extremely important fact to understand about the space we work in is that we should not do something just because it is possible. Besides being legally compliant, the type of work being undertaken in this field needs to put ethics at the very top of the agenda even before beginning work on an analysis. Working closely with the appropriate experts in the practices of employment law, privacy law, ethics, communications, business partners and workers councils is a good way to ensure that besides the legality of the work, its potential impact on people is also being considered through the lens of ethics, privacy, and empathy. Most established organisations have extensive reviews involving these types of stakeholders already in place.
Another way to pressure test the approach from an ethics lens is to share possible outcomes of an analysis with the internal clients beforehand and ask them to articulate what actions they would take in each scenario. Obviously, this method is not possible in every situation, but when applicable it can be a useful “stop and reflect” moment.

如何为人力分析专业人士创造职业道路-How to create career paths for people analytics professionals文/David Green
文章导读
根据德勤于2017年11月发布的“高影响力人力分析研究”(High-Impact People Analytics study), 69%的大型机构(10,000多名员工)现在拥有一个“人力分析团队”。
Geetanjali Gamel在旧金山举行的“人民分析与未来工作会议”(People Analytics & Future of Work Conference)上的演讲这个话题。Geetanjali是默克公司劳动力分析的全球领导者。在2017年9月在费城举行的人民分析与未来工作会议上发言。
为什么要人力分析?
问1、你好,Geetanjali,请解释一下吸引你到人力分析领域的原因。
我工作中最有趣的部分是理解、测量和预测人类行为及其对销售和收入等业务结果的影响。因此,我很自然地被这个机会所吸引,这个机会将科学的方法引入到人们的数据中,并帮助塑造一个组织如何为其投资者带来价值,同时为其员工带来更丰富的经验。
MERCK & CO.的人力分析团队
问2、请您描述一下默克公司的劳动力分析团队的规模和结构,以及它是如何与业务联系起来的。
默克的劳动力分析团队(WFA)拥有15名成员,在全球80多个市场,69000名员工。
这个团队由三个主要支柱组成:咨询、高级分析、报告和数据可视化。
咨询——每个咨询师都与我们的业务部门(如制造、研究、销售等)保持一致。他们与领导者紧密合作,以理解和预见棘手的业务问题,并运用正确的方法解决问题,将分析转化为可操作的观点。
高级分析——高级分析团队是一群灵活的数据科学家和专业人士,他们主要专注于需要高级技术技能或很有意义的项目。它们围绕业务问题进行组织。
报告和数据可视化——他们直接与来自业务各个部门的内部客户合作,以确保合适的人在合适的时间拥有合适的数据。驱动了内部客户满意度。
三个WFA团队紧密合作,以确保识别和利用业务活动之间的协同作用。
创建一个数据驱动的文化
问3、德勤(Deloitte)的“高影响力人物分析”(High-Impact People Analytics)研究发现,在创造高级能力方面,最重要的因素是需要创建数据驱动的文化。你在默克公司是如何做到这一点的?
我们首先在人力资源社区中推广数据,推出了一个基于云的劳动力分析平台。我们还开发和部署了一个能力构建程序,其中的模块主要集中在度量选择、假设测试、数据可视化、推荐开发等方面。
此外,我们一直在利用的另一个渠道,加速人力资源数据驱动文化,是让我们更广泛的人力资源社区的成员成为分析“冠军”。
最后,我们还建立了一个人力资源领导团队,在人力资源中传达建筑数据和分析能力的信息。
高层领导的支持对于人员分析功能的成功至关重要
在人力分析中创造职业道路
问4、您对为人力分析专业人员创建职业发展道路充满热情。 为什么你认为这是如此重要?
我热衷于为那些使人力分析成为可能的人们建立更好的工作体验! 我发现这个团队能够为职业道路,继任计划和大型员工的人才流动等领域做出决策,但经常陷入无处可扩展的境地。
此外,大多数人分析团队都是人力资源部门的一员,而且往往被贴上高度专业化的“人力资源精英”卓越中心(CoE)的标签,这限制了横向或向上进入CoEs或业务部门的其他人力资源角色的机会。
最后,一个能够提供发展和职业发展的组织和领导者,可以成为吸引和留住优秀人才的关键因素。
如果我们能让更多人力分析人才流动起来,就会为人力资源和企业的其他部门增加技能、方法和拓宽视角,为企业创造额外的价值。

英文原文:
According to Bersin by Deloitte’s High-Impact People Analytics study, which was published in November 2017, 69% of large organisations (10,000+ employees) now have a people analytics team.
It is a surprise then that many organisations overlook the need to develop the careers of their people analytics team. Given the pace of evolution of the field and the high-demand for talent in the space, this is an oversight that needs correction.
As such, it was refreshing that the main focus of Geetanjali Gamel’s presentation earlier this year at the People Analytics & Future of Work Conference in San Francisco (see key learnings here) was on this very topic.
Geetanjali is the global leader of workforce analytics at Merck & Co., Inc. (NYSE: MRK, known as MSD outside the United States and Canada). I caught up with Geetanjali recently to ask how she has created career development paths for her team as well as discuss other related topics in the people analytics field.
Geetanjali Gamel speaking at the People Analytics & Future of Work Conference in Philadelphia in September 2017
WHY PEOPLE ANALYTICS?
1. Hi Geetanjali, please can you introduce yourself, describe your background and explain what attracted you to the people analytics space.
Like many of my colleagues in people analytics, I’ve had a non-linear path to my current role. I am a trained economist and began my career in research at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis studying topics like macroeconomic forecasting, unemployment and inflation. With this foundation in social science methodology and research, I soon transitioned to business forecasting, predictive analysis and scenario-planning to drive customer growth and revenue projections in corporate planning and finance departments in the energy sector. The most intriguing part of my work was in understanding, measuring and predicting human behaviour and its impact on business outcomes such as sales and revenue. So, I was naturally attracted by the opportunity to bring scientific methodology to people data and help shape how an organisation can drive value for its investors along with enhanced experience for its employees. I began by building a predictive analytics function from scratch in HR in my previous role at Mastercard and since 2016 I have led the advanced workforce analytics, consulting and reporting organisation in Merck HR.
THE PEOPLE ANALYTICS TEAM AT MERCK & CO.
2. Please can you describe the size and structure of the workforce analytics team at Merck and how it aligns to the business
Merck’s workforce analytics team (WFA) has 15 members who support 69,000 employees in over 80 markets worldwide through a rich portfolio of people analytics products.
The team consists of three primary pillars; Consulting, Advanced Analytics, and Reporting & Data Visualisation (see Figure 1 below).
Figure 1: The Workforce Analytics team at Merck & Co (Source: Geetanjali Gamel)
Consulting - Each consultant is aligned to one of our business divisions like manufacturing, research, sales, etc. They work closely with leaders to understand and anticipate burning business questions, utilise the right methodology to find the answers; and convert the analyses into actionable insights.
Advanced Analytics - The advanced analytics team is a nimble group of data scientists and specialised professionals who focus mainly on ad hoc projects requiring advanced technical skills and/or initiatives of enterprise level significance. They are organised around business questions and may support several divisions at a time, in contrast to the end-to-end approach that the consultants take with each initiative.
Reporting & Data Visualisation – This team forms the backbone of all the amazing work we are able to do, as well as the internal customer satisfaction we drive. They work directly with internal clients from all parts of the business to ensure that the right people have the right data at the right time.
The three WFA teams work closely with each other to ensure that any synergies between business initiatives are identified and leveraged.
CREATING A DATA-DRIVEN CULTURE
3. The recent Bersin by Deloitte High-Impact People Analytics study found that the single biggest predictor in creating advanced capability is the need to create a data-driven culture. How have you achieved this at Merck particularly with regards to HR Business Partners and the wider HR function?
I agree that culture can be the strongest catalyst or impediment for people analytics. It is also ridiculously difficult to identify and alter, particularly because organisations at any given time tend to be collections of sub-cultures. But there are some patterns of behaviours, decision-making, and incentive-rewards, which distinguish data driven cultures from others. These behaviours can be purposefully incubated through a combination of upskilling, training and mind-set building.
At Merck, we believe that a leading HR function is one where analytics capability is not only for the analytics team, but the whole HR team. This does not imply that every role requires equal depth in analytics, but a new baseline of data interpretation and communication skills is critical to being effective partners to the business. To this end, we started out by democratising data within our HR community by rolling out a cloud based workforce analytics platform. This is helping us drive greater familiarity and reliance on data among our HR users. We have also developed and deployed a capability-building program with modules focused on metric selection, hypothesis testing, data visualisation, recommendation development, and more.
Another channel that we have been leveraging to accelerate a data driven culture in HR has been to engage members of our wider HR community as analytics “Champions”. These superheroes are critical to spreading the adoption of data informed insights, since they live and breathe the daily challenges of their colleagues; and can share relatable examples with their counterparts on how data can unlock value.
Finally, we also have an HR leadership team that is aligned and strong advocates in relaying the message of building data and analytics capability in HR. Needless to say, sponsorship of senior leaders is imperative to the success of a people analytics function.

CREATING CAREER PATHS IN PEOPLE ANALYTICS
4. You are passionate on the need to create career paths for people analytics professionals. Why do you believe this is so important?
I firmly believe that the goal of people analytics is to drive value for the business as well as provide a better experience of work for employees. So naturally, I am equally passionate about building a better work experience for the people who make people analytics possible! I find a sad irony in the fact that the team which enables decision-making on areas like career pathing, succession planning, and talent movement for the larger workforce, is often stuck in a position of having nowhere to grow. From my discussions with many colleagues in this field, I have learned that the typical people analytics team usually tends to have a group of individual contributors (analysts, data scientists, consultants) and a director or senior director level leader. This leaves only one spot for the entire team to aspire to, at least for upward movement.
In addition, most people analytics teams sit within HR and tend to be branded as a highly-specialised “HR-lite” centre of excellence (CoE), which limits the opportunities to move laterally or upward into other HR roles in CoEs or business units. And this reality of being “boxed-in” can be very frustrating for bright, highly-employable individuals.
If you are a leader in people analytics, and if you have had to recently recruit new talent for your team, I would guess you are acutely aware of the gaping chasm between talent demand and supply in this field. In my opinion, an organisation and a leader who can offer development and career growth can be a key differentiator in attracting and retaining the best people analytics talent.
Broadening that vision, if we enabled more fluid movement of people analytics talent, it would add to the diversity of skills, approaches and perspectives to other parts of HR and the business, and would create additional value for the enterprise.
An organisation and a leader who can offer development and career growth can be a key differentiator in attracting and retaining the best people analytics talent
5. What program have you put into place at Merck regarding the career development of the people analytics team?
From the first day of my role at Merck, one of my top priorities was to understand the strengths and aspirations of my team and align their development to meet their career goals. After multiple discussions and numerous iterations on ideas, I arrived at a Capability-Capacity-Connectivity model to power a sustainable development program for our people analytics team. The underlying idea is that if we can build the right capability within the analytics team and its clients; reallocate capacity that is being consumed by suboptimal tasks; and drive connectivity between people analytics teams and other parts of the business; then we can potentially discover and create new career paths and opportunities. But please bear in mind that a key driver of success for such a model is sponsorship from your leaders and partnership with other teams. In our case, we were fortunate to have both. This has empowered us to be inventive and co-create development opportunities for our team.
6. Please can you provide more detail on what comprises each of the Capability, Capacity and Connectivity elements of this approach. What have been the key benefits and learnings from the career development program?
The “3C” approach is built around tackling barriers and creating bridges that promote career development for people analytics teams. At the outset we knew that the team was faced with a high volume of requests needing significant manual effort. (see Figure 2 below):
Figure 2: Challenges in accelerating maturity in people analytics (Source: Geetanjali Gamel)
Since the day-to-day work was time and effort intensive, there was not much room to hone more sophisticated skills or build knowledge sharing relationships with others, leaving the people analytics team stuck in a loop. So, we put careful thought and purpose into adopting the following model.
Capability
The first “C”, or capability, had to be addressed at two levels. The first was to empower our broader HR team with the right tools and training to have greater autonomy to perform analyses. We moved to an intuitive analytics platform and organised workshops, office hours, and learning sessions to improve data literacy among our internal HR clients. This type of effort is important to free-up time for the people analytics team to build their own skillset (and path to growth), while also creating a greater awareness in other parts of HR about analytics.
Figure 3: Capability - Level 1: building data, technology and analytics savvy clients (Source: Geetanjali Gamel)
The second area of capability building had a more direct impact on the team. We held a team strategy session where we identified areas that needed focus for internal functional, technical and strategic competency building. These focus areas were carefully selected to create dual impact – provide us with a skill or knowledge we could use immediately in our work; and more importantly, help us practice a new behaviour that would develop us as well-rounded professionals. For example, on the technical side, we organised an in-house R-training curriculum, created and delivered by some of our own colleagues to the rest of the team. This helped us build a technical skill we could immediately put to use to do better work, and also built coaching and confidence skills for those who led the program. Another great example was of an external guest speaker series that we launched, which brought recognition to the team for bringing new insights to the company, and also helped the team gain experience in organising an event successfully end-to-end.
Figure 4: Capability - Level 2: Upskilling the people analytics team (Source: Geetanjali Gamel)
Capacity
At first, capacity building measures may not sound like a natural fit with developing career paths. But it is impossible to focus on the next steps in one’s career if there is no time to step away from the daily barrage of activity to have a conversation; listen to a webinar; learn about a new project; or simply, chat with colleagues over lunch. As such creating capacity for the team is critical to allow them to develop their skillset to be more widely applicable, as well as to build the networks they need to find new opportunities.
As mentioned before, our journey began with democratising data and providing a range of workforce metrics and even results of our enterprise voice survey in accessible cloud platforms to our HR community. We continue to supplement our efforts to empower our internal clients, and in the process unlock capacity for our team, by forming global communities of practice for analytics. Another effort to scale our analytics delivery and save precious time has been by finding opportunities to utilise process automation on repeatable tasks.
It is impossible to focus on the next steps in one’s career if there is no time to step away from the daily barrage of activity
Connectivity
Despite efforts in building capability and reallocating capacity, there can’t be much career development if there is nowhere to go! This is when the third “C” of connectivity comes into play. In fact, it could just as easily be C for creativity, because we need a great deal of innovative thinking and risk taking to create opportunities where they don’t always exist.
We started with small yet effective steps rather than trying to construct huge, formal programs. Connecting the people analytics team with other HR, data science, technology, and business professionals builds an awareness and appreciation for different types of work on both sides. We leveraged opportunities to co-create part-time assignments with other teams, participate in cross functional events, invite guest speakers to team meetings, and collaborate on projects to expose the team to other areas of analytical work.
Connecting the people analytics team with other HR, data science, technology, and business professionals builds an awareness and appreciation for different types of work on both sides
To create development assignments for the people analytics team we were creative and went with “quasi-experiments”. The first was an opportunity for a team member to take on the role of an HR business partner on a part-time basis for a few, smaller client groups. This gave the individual an opportunity to apply their analytical skillset to the role and get much greater exposure than before to business clients and business issues. Such an experiment has a multiplier effect. Where typically a business partner track is not easily available to a people analytics professional, creating such an opportunity internally can open up a new career path. Moreover, even if the individual does not end up pursuing this new career direction at the end of the experiment, it is still a valuable learning experience for them to be in the shoes of their internal client, i.e., the HR business partner. Finally, it may help to lay the foundation for what I like to call the HRBP 3.0 model.
Where the original HRBP role had a heavy component of operational (and even transactional) work, the HRBP 2.0 model that many companies follow today aims at strategic business partners who enable key business decisions. The HRBP 3.0 model takes it a step further by envisioning an analytical HR business partner, who relies on both data driven insight and business acumen to support their client.
Another “experiment” in creating new career opportunities was a mini-assignment we created for one of our people analytics team members to lead a large, remote team in the service delivery space. This was a completely different line of work from people analytics, and was heavily focused on operational and organisational skills like identifying and escalating issues on short deadlines, supplier relationship management, building relationships with a variety of HR and non HR stakeholders, and leading a service centre team to drive customer satisfaction. Clearly, this would not be a typical career path for a people analytics professional, but that is exactly why we need to be bold and creative with such experiments. This assignment not only exposed the individual to a different type and pace of work, but also gave them an opportunity to bring their analytical skills to the table to significantly elevate the usage and interpretation of transactional data.
While many mature organisations have good-sized people analytics teams, there are still many where the teams are pretty lean. This model may work well for most purposes, but it usually limits the opportunities for team-members to have people management experience. This is not always necessary for upward mobility, but it many cases it is difficult to move upward without some kind of experience of leading a team. Keeping this in mind, we built more depth in our people analytics team, creating enterprise advanced people analytics and data visualisation and reporting sub-teams within the larger group, which are led by two of our team members. Taking a chance on subject matter experts and giving them the opportunity to lead and delegate not only helps to open up doors for them, it also gives them a chance to coach others on their team to be future experts and leaders.
Lastly, we also created a new learning analytics role on our people analytics team which is a step toward building greater synergies between people analytics and learning practices, but also our small contribution in creating a new capability (and career path!) that is still evolving in many organisations.
招聘自动化后,Sourcing工作将是人类的价值体现!--Sourcing Is the New Recruiting文/Mike Wolford
我有个好消息要告诉你。Sourcing是今天人才招聘的好方法!传统上人们所熟知的招聘正在消失。越来越多的公司采用招聘过程自动化,这意味着即使对人才的需求增加,对传统全生命周期招聘的需求也会减少。面试和评估技术的改进将使公司能够自动完成大部分招聘人员目前所做的工作。
聊天机器人不仅能提高求职者的经验,还能提高进入我们各自的求职者跟踪系统的人数。自动面试将及时取代招聘人员筛选面试。自动评估和调度助理将从那里接管这一过程。这一变化将极大地减少填表时间,因为自动系统全天是可用的,原则上,候选人可以在几个小时内从应用程序转到安排面试。
对招聘人员来说,好消息是,只有最优秀的候选人才能以一种完全自动化的方式通过筛选过程。那些被认为65%匹配程度的候选人仍然需要人工审查。然而,即使在这些情况下,候选人和招聘人员之间也不太可能需要广泛的沟通。相反,招聘人员可能会检查一份文件,查看考试成绩,然后做出判断。2020年及以后的招聘人员将很少真正与应聘者交谈。
我能听到你在考虑我,迈克是一个源程序,而不是一个招聘人员,这对我来说意味着什么? 它意味着一些事情。首先,我们要做的是改变。在更高的层次上,源程序今天所做的是四个主要的活动。我们的工作是在面试过程中识别,参与,鉴定和提交候选人,否则他们将无法自行申请。
到2020年,源程序将主要集中在两项活动上。识别和参与。一旦招聘过程被自动化,就不需要招聘方来筛选候选人。面试过程将筛选候选人,而源程序不会向招聘人员或招聘经理提交候选人,他们会直接将候选人引入管道,开始评估,最有可能的方式是参加某种形式的视频面试。今年早些时候,在拉斯维加斯的SourceCon网站上,格伦·卡西(Glen Cathey)说得既准确又有预言性,“sourcing101是销售101。”
未来的源程序人员需要成为优秀的销售人员,因为他们的主要工作将是识别高潜力人才,并邀请他们进入自动招聘流程。对我们来说,在程序方面,特别是在IT程序方面,市场的声音将会更大。这意味着,参与将变得更具挑战性和关键。2020年的目标不仅是成为一个有说服力的、坚持不懈的销售人员,而且是一个出色的营销人员。采购和招聘营销将融合成一种新的、强有力的组合。
人们很容易忽视人工智能对其他行业的影响,但忽视人工智能正在改变市场营销的方式,以及这种改变将如何影响整个招聘,是不明智的。例如,Facebook最近之所以成为新闻,是因为它们对我们这个时代的政治产生了一定的影响。不管你的政治观点如何,这对我们大家都是一个教训。有针对性的社交媒体和聊天机器人在广告和参与方面的应用是强大而有效的。既然人工智能正在被应用于市场营销,那么人才收购进入这种广告渠道只是时间问题。有智慧的人会看到后职和祈祷正在被目标和参与所取代。
有时很难看到森林中的树木,但我记得我从经济学中学到了这一课。20世纪的定义是大规模生产。21世纪将由大规模定制所定义。这一说法对源程序有一定的影响。
一些公司已经意识到这一点,并采取了复杂的营销活动,但这只是一个例外,而不是规则。原因有很多,但我在这里想告诉你的是,一旦实际的申请和面试过程基本上是自动化的,公司将有时间和资源来集中精力把目标申请者填满职位空缺。作为一个销售人员,这意味着你不仅需要学习如何销售,还需要理解如何像营销人员一样思考。
作为一个源程序,我相信这对你来说意味着什么。今天,我们确认、参与、资格和提交。我们与招聘伙伴密切合作,有时还会与招聘经理合作。在未来,源程序将首先确定潜在人才的目标市场。从那时起,参与就变成了一种双管齐下的方式。
作为长期战略的一部分,招聘营销人员将负责建立品牌并将EVP销售到目标市场。他们将为目标市场提供令人兴奋和引人入胜的内容,而源程序将与这些目标市场中的特定个人进行接触,并邀请他们应用于特定的角色。当前的招聘人员/源程序伙伴关系将会及时被招聘市场/源程序的关系所取代。
我们源程序的底线是。我们的工作正在发生变化,但在所有与人才获取有关的专业人士中,我们的工作最有可能出现显著增长。
我给你的建议是完善你的布尔值,并挑选一些关于销售和数字营销的书籍。如果今天你是招聘人员,我的建议是训练你的采购技能或开始思考另一条线的工作,因为在过程自动化变成了标准的50% +全生命周期的工作正在消失,“招聘”将在很大程度上成为另一个人力资源管理功能。

你能让你的老板把芯片放在你身上吗?-少数员工同意皮下植入但这个想法正在蔓延
Dave Coplin试图向我解释为什么两大洲的人们突然允许他们的雇主将微芯片放在他们的皮肤下。
“我这样对待我的狗 - 我为什么不自己做呢?”科普林说。我不相信,所以他发起了关于地中海派伊维萨岛上一个俱乐部的轶事,人们可以在那里筹码,然后用芯片买饮料。科普林怀疑这是因为他们没有穿很多衣服。
但是,因为你是半裸的而且没有钱包的口袋,所以要让你的雇主给你筹码是非常不同的。那么,我们是怎么来到这里的?
担任Envisioners咨询公司负责人的科普林表示,如果我们只能克服自己的娇气,那么雇主和员工都会受益匪浅。“如果它增加价值,我就是全力以赴,”他说。“今天我们看看人们这样做,感觉有点奇怪,但实际上有一些不可避免的事情。”
Patrick McMullan是威斯康星州三广场市场的总裁。在斯德哥尔摩的瑞典孵化器Epicenter进行实验后,该公司自2015年以来一直在试验切片,他的公司决定进一步开发该技术。当然,作为供应商和开发商,McMullan自己也有一个芯片植入物 - 一个大致相当于拇指和食指之间植入皮肤下的一粒米的大小。它基于近场通信(NFC)技术 - 与非接触式信用卡或移动支付中使用的芯片相同。使用注射器和非常少的血液快速简单地完成植入。
McMullan说,目前的一个限制是,由于芯片是无源器件,因此无法对其进行跟踪。就目前而言,这意味着该芯片用于访问建筑物,登录计算机以及从食堂支付费用。但麦克马伦的员工正在执行“改变世界”的使命,他说,到目前为止,已有70多名员工自愿参与实验。
“我这样对待我的狗 - 我为什么不自己做呢?”
这个想法似乎正在蔓延。除了三坊市场外,至少有160人参加了Epicenter的月度“ 筹码派对”。辛辛那提监控公司CityWatcher.com的一些员工已经获得了芯片,一些人在数字营销公司工作。在比利时称为NewFusion。毫无疑问,这是一个很好的宣传,但削弱倡导者真正相信这将成为未来十年的普遍做法。
McMullan认为,随着技术的进步,芯片将提供更多的好处。“我们正在开发能够监测生命体征的医疗用途。医生将能够主动治疗患者,而不是总是做出反应,“他说。McMullan认为,全球削减员工的数量将在几年内达到数百万,因为低于100美元的芯片的好处可能是巨大的。
自然进步?
McMullan认为没有任何不利因素,尽管人们明显担心,以难以控制或消除的方式与雇主建立密切联系感觉完全是反乌托邦。采用他自己的芯片监控人们健康的想法:未来的嵌入式技术有明显的优势,可以监测胆固醇,血糖水平,甚至只是脱水。
但是,如果某人有一块芯片监测酒精摄入量,作为退出协议的一部分呢?外科医生会被允许拒绝接受手术吗?如果保险公司从车上掉下来,可以提高患者的保费吗?随着芯片变得更先进和更广泛,可以或应该收集哪些信息以及它可能或应该去哪里的问题将变得更加复杂。其他专家也提出了对黑客行为的担忧,以及已知与宠物类似芯片相关的已知健康问题。
“显然,隐私是一个巨大的问题,”科普林补充说。“人们将如何处理这些数据?谁会去看?实际上,我必须携带手机和我的钱包,这已经够糟了。如果这解决了其中一些问题,那我就是为了它。“
尽管存在这些担忧,但很多人似乎都接受了这种情况 - 并且很快就会发生。Lynda Shaw博士,认知神经科学家,Your Brain Is Boss的作者,认为切片是一种自然进展,可能更容易为年轻人所接受。
“If you think of young men, when they’re teenagers, we often think of them as driving too fast, hotheaded,” Shaw explains. “In evolutionary psychology, that’s vital to have in society. In the old days, if a village’s crops failed, they would get the strongest young men to go and find food. They would go and find food by going beyond their usual areas and by being curious.” We may no longer be hunter-gatherers, Shaw’s theory goes, but young people will still test the boundaries, be curious, and do new things; it’s part of what they are.
在某些方面,这已经是一项成熟的技术,至少在有健康问题的人中是这样。Shaw指出,我们已经使用芯片进行人工耳蜗植入,甚至在脑损伤的情况下绕过大脑的部分区域。她说:“切削人体并不是新闻,但我们总是那些邪恶的一面说这有点过于奥威尔式。” 人们可能会担心生活在他们体内的计算机病毒或者当硬件被破坏时会发生什么。
“它将摆脱身份通行证”
智库快速未来的未来主义者兼首席执行官罗希特·塔尔瓦(Rohit Talwar)认为,削片变得非常迅速,尤其是那些希望证明自己具有前瞻思维的科技公司。
Talwar说,在那些希望获得极高安全性的公司中,人们不会进入系统或者他们不应该建造的部分建筑,以及谁想向客户证明他们在安全方面处于领先地位条款。您可能还会看到它被用作使人们能够在食堂,自动售货机上兑换货币的方式 - 它将摆脱身份通行证。“
Shaw也看到了好处。如果有人生病并且有起搏器或使用抗凝药物,通过快速扫描获得该信息可以挽救他们的生命。但她也指出了对犯罪现场的暗示。在犯罪率高且尸体被肢解的地区,Shaw指出,犯罪分子不需要整个身体来破坏安全,只需要插入芯片的肢体。她说:“你最终可能会无意中煽动比原先考虑的更可怕的罪行。”
塔尔瓦尔认为,反乌托邦是旁观者的眼睛。作为数字原生代出生的一代人可能会认为这是一种自然的进化,塑料传递为过时的,神秘的,当然也无法捕捉到我们身体内的芯片可以捕获的信息,比如健康。
“老一代人可能会认为这是非常具有侵略性的,”塔尔瓦尔说。“我去年参加了一个活动,那里他们只是为了好玩而扒人,而且这些线路正在人们的走廊上等待被破坏 - 为了故事和体验。”
我们与机器对话的一部分
那么,切削在哪里?Talwar认为这是一个不可避免的过程的一部分,在这个过程中,先驱者已经说了一段时间,如果人类要跟上人工智能的步伐,我们就必须加强我们的大脑和身体。
“这只是该过程的起点。你可以很容易地预测你的手机内存被插入你,芯片可以加速你的记忆和你的大脑,“Talwar说。“随着我们加强和扩充自己,进入超人类世界,我们可以看到这方面的巨大加速。”
“你可能最终无意中煽动了比原先考虑的更可怕的罪行。”
Coplin认为切削是关于我们如何与机器相关的对话的一部分。他指出,澳大利亚的一名男子试图从旅行卡中取出芯片并将其嵌入手中失败,因为条款和条件说不会损坏卡。“目前,这感觉很奇怪,”科普林说,“但此刻,我可能会在我的手腕上放置一种可能具有该技术的设备。为什么不在我的皮肤下更远一点?“
社会一直在争论技术的潜力及其所带来的变化。四分之一世纪以前,很少有人预测到手机的出现 - 我们更多地预计会将它们用作相机和音乐中心。现在,技术面临着额外的压力。
“我们真的失去了对处理我们数据的人的信任 - 银行,谷歌,Facebook,”科普林说。“在赢得信任之前,我们会非常担心这种事情。而且我认为这是一个真正的耻辱,因为我们可以获得的好处。“

Checkr Creates Dynamic Monitoring Tool to Elevate Safety in Ridesharing
Checkr, the leading provider of modern and compliant background checks, today announced new technology that provides continuous updates about criminal records that may affect ridesharing drivers’ eligibility to drive. Checkr Continuous Check, which was designed with Uber, dynamically identifies potentially disqualifying records to help ensure drivers continue to meet Uber’s safety standards.
“With today's on-demand workforce, there's a need to move beyond static background reports to dynamic screenings," said Daniel Yanisse, CEO of Checkr. "Through Continuous Check, Checkr is creating a new standard of safety for the ridesharing industry and beyond that will provide critical insight into changes in someone's background that may affect their eligibility to work."
Uber is the first company to adopt the technology. Using data sources that cover most new criminal offenses, Continuous Check provides notifications to Uber when a driver is involved in criminal activity. Uber can then investigate any potentially disqualifying information, such as a new and pending charge for a DUI, to determine whether the driver is still eligible to drive with Uber. This new technology allows Uber to continuously enforce its safety standards between annual reruns of background checks.
“Safety is essential to Uber and we want to ensure drivers continue to meet our standards on an ongoing basis,” said Gus Fuldner, Vice President of Safety and Insurance at Uber. “This new continuous checking technology will strengthen our screening process and improve safety.”
Designed initially to meet the stringent requirements of the ridesharing industry, Continuous Check will be available to all Checkr customers in Fall 2018.
About Checkr
Checkr’s mission is to build a fairer future by improving understanding of the past. Our platform makes it easy for thousands of customers to hire millions of people every year at the speed of the gig economy. Using Checkr’s advanced background check technology, companies of all sizes can better understand the dynamics of the changing workforce, bring transparency and fairness to their hiring, and ultimately build a better future for workers.
