Max Dubroff - Senior Manager of HR Solutions, Sandia National Laboratories

Traditional metrics like cost and headcount ratios, while important, offer a limited view of HR Shared Services' true value.

This session will explore a range of key performance indicators (KPIs) that can help HR Shared Services elevate its strategic role.  

Action Items:  

  • Assess the employee experience at key touchpoints, such as onboarding, personnel actions, benefits administration, and offboarding.  
  • Ensure that HR metrics are linked to the overall business strategy and contribute to the achievement of organizational goals.  
  • Utilize data analytics to uncover insights, identify trends, and make informed decisions to improve HR processes and service delivery.
