Ideas for your next HR dashboard

• Start with one question: Pick the main numbers that help answer the question for the meeting. For example: Do we have enough people? Are people leaving? Are we hiring fast enough?
• Show today and change: Use KPI cards for the key numbers now. Use time charts to show what is going up or down.
• Show the plan next to the real result: This makes it easy to see if a staffing gap is getting smaller or bigger.
• Click for more detail: Use filters and drill-down so you can move from the whole company to one team, location, role, or employee group.
• Keep employee data safe: Show group totals when possible. Only show details about one person when you have permission to see that information.

A good way to start your new HR Power BI dashboard is to find an example that answers a similar question. Look at the main numbers, filters, and drill-down. Then change the dashboard to fit your own data, HR rules, and security needs.
