About

People analytics is changing how organizations make talent decisions.

Austin People Analytics brings together practitioners, researchers, and leaders who use data, behavioral science, and AI to solve real workforce problems โ€” from hiring and performance to retention and org design. We meet regularly to learn from each other, share what's working (and what isn't), and grow a stronger analytics community here in Austin.
