"Human Capital Analytics" is the sort of book I've been looking for a long time. It combines a good business overview of HR issues with specific, actionable steps to studying issues in my company. The "how you do it" part seems to be skipped in the books I've read. The case studies are excellent, drawn from actual companies, not the "ABC Company" type stuff that you usually get, and the advice on how to actually get the data, clean it up, and analyze alone makes the book worth getting. The math sections point out how to wade through things like regression and find the one or two numbers that you actually should care about. The section about how to present the results, giving tips on charts, what kinds of documents to write, etc., seems pretty useful, although I haven't gotten that far in my own work. Well worth a read!

Gene, Boyce and Jac created an incredible book on how you look at Analytics and apply those concepts to managing your company.With real examples, always making sure to combine the right level of technical details and business benefit, the book has proven to be a source of ideas and lessons for professionals which are looking to make their companies more data-driven.
