Influencing with Data, Research & Analytics

We dove into leveraging research and data to hone your skills of persuasion and improve how you are able to show up as a strategic leader in the role of CHRO. Leading our discussion was i4cp’s own Lorrie Lykins, Vice President of Research. Lorrie has worked in the field of human capital research for a decade, beginning with the Human Resource Institute, and has published numerous articles, playbooks, case studies, editorial features, and whitepapers on topics ranging from corporate volunteerism to women in leadership, L&D, talent management, and talent acquisition. An award-winning writer, Lorrie’s work has been featured in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, and she is a contributing author to the books ATD's Foundations of Talent Development: Launching, Leveraging, and Leading Your Organization's TD Effort (2018), The ASTD Leadership Handbook (2010), and Red, White, and True: Stories from Veterans and Families, World War II to Present (2014).  

We spent time diving into Lorrie’s survey work and research on the way CHROs are perceived in different organizations and what board members want to see in a highly strategic CHRO.
