Take the Guesswork out of People Management

At the HR Lux Trade Fair 2025 on March 20th, Sophie Koyanagi, Senior Consultant at WeProgress by MindForest delivered an impactful presentation that shed light on the critical role of People Analytics in contemporary organisational development.

With a decade of experience in HR strategy, Sophie emphasised how People Analytics has evolved from a peripheral function to a critical driver of business performance. Her keynote underscored a fundamental shift: HR is no longer just an administrative department, but a strategic partner capable of generating meaningful organisational insights.

The presentation illuminated how data-driven approaches can:

• Transform complex HR challenges into clear, actionable strategies
• Align human capital directly with corporate objectives
• Enable more nuanced and effective talent management
• Create a more responsive and adaptive organisational culture

What distinguished WeProgress’s approach was the emphasis on maintaining a “human touch” while utilising sophisticated analytical tools. The presentation made it clear that data should serve people, not replace human judgment.

For businesses seeking to transform their HR strategy, WeProgress’s insights offer a roadmap. By placing People Analytics at the heart of organisational decision-making, companies can unlock unprecedented potential in their most valuable asset: their people.
