As both a consultant and researcher my work is dedicated to advancing the science of workforce management and improving the understanding of labor markets. This work is rooted in economics, organizational psychology and statistics. It brings together insights and practical facts to securing and managing an organization's workforce. My work, and that of my former colleagues, has been in the forefront of the evolution toward this “new science” of human capital management that is characterized by the empirical analyses of the enormous data organizations now have.Too many organizations refer to people as their most important asset while failing to apply a true discipline to workforce management in the same way they manage financial assets and supply chains. Today's availability of workforce data, technology, and methods allows leading companies to measure the true impact of policies and practices and optimize their workforce investments. Given the fact that workforce expenditures are often the single biggest investment an organization makes - there is no longer any excuse not to base these decisions on hard evidence derived from actual workforce outcomes and the business impact of these investments.Labor markets remain the least efficient markets in the world, hurting employers, employees and slowing economic growth. Understanding how jobs will change in the future and where best to locate and recruit should be part of each organization's workforce plan. That plan should not simply identify key workforce gaps uncover the best actions to fill those gaps.My goal is to continue advancing the measurement methods for labor markets, promote strategic workforce planning, and help organizations enter a new era of fact-based people management.I have worked with over 100 of the Global 500 and have particular industry expertise in oil & gas and technology companies.

Listed skills include Organizational Design, Workforce Planning, Personnel Management, Human Capital, and 28 others.
