“HR leaders have been looking for a tool to help them make the business case for the changes in HR strategy they know are necessary to improve overall business performance. The Vienna Index will give heads of HR the financial information needed to get the financial resources and C-Suite commitment to effect positive change in the organization,” said Eileen Clark, former Senior Vice President, Human Resources at Amerisource Bergen.
Offered as a web-based software application, the Vienna Index features dashboard views that visually monitor how an organization’s human capital investment performs as a whole and against internal benchmarks.
