'This book reinforces the value of making evidence-based talent decisions. Many organizations have massive amounts of human capital information available to them and People Data helps the interested reader separate the wheat from the chaff. Readers will love the illustrations and how-to applications. This is also a great book for applied graduate level studies in human resources and business management.'
