Book Review – Douglas W. Hubbard's How to
Measure Anything: Finding the Value of “Intangibles” in
Business is a couple of
years old now, but it still has valuable information for any
HR people developing ROI cases (and we all need to do that!).
Hubbard invented a method of
evaluating choices with uncertain risks and outcomes. In this
book, he addresses how to value immeasurable objects and ideas
to work out their true value. He suggests that knowledge
reduces uncertainty, and shows the reader how to use
statistical tools to solve this challenge.
The book breaks down into three
parts, theory, tools and examples, which together provide you
with an effective idea of Hubbard's framework. The tools are
simple, but they provide a robust framework. The hardest part
is getting over over ingrained attitudes about the
immeasurability of intangibles.
We highly recommend it if you
are building an ROI case for workforce planning. Or, for a faster method, just call us and we'll help you make your case - the ROI on workforce planning is a great case to make!
