Send us a textIn today's digital landscape, the exponential growth of data presents unique challenges and opportunities for organizations. Keith Goode, a leader in human capital management and business intelligence, emphasizes the significance of leveraging data to enhance decision-making around an organization's most valuable asset: its people. As a member of ZeroedIn Technologies, Keith is dedicated to turning HR and business data into actionable workforce intelligence.Keith's JourneyWith a background in information management systems, Keith combines technical expertise with deep knowledge of HR practices, including benefits, payroll, and core HR functions. His experience allows him to create comprehensive reporting solutions that empower organizations to make informed decisions using historical data.About ZeroedIn TechnologiesFounded by a visionary who Keith has collaborated with since the early 90s, ZeroedIn aims to address the issue of siloed HR solutions. These systems often offer a wealth of data but lack the insights needed for effective workforce management. ZeroedIn integrates data from various HR functions—such as learning, benefits, and payroll—into a unified platform that provides a single point of truth regarding employee interactions and performance.Success StoriesKeith highlights several success stories from his work with clients. For instance, in organizations with outdoor workers, ZeroedIn correlated core HR information with weather data. This analysis helped clients understand how environmental factors affected performance and efficiency.In the retail sector, ZeroedIn assisted clients in correlating employee performance data with sales figures. This integration enabled store managers to identify top performers and allocate coaching resources effectively, thereby enhancing overall sales output.Trends for 2025: Merging Human and Data IntelligenceAs organizations move toward 2025, Keith identifies two key trends: collective listening and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI). Collective listening involves combining quantitative data from various systems with qualitative insights gathered from employee surveys and communications. This approach provides a comprehensive view of organizational health.In the realm of AI, Keith discusses the potential of machine learning and large language models. These technologies can analyze historical data, generate predictions, and even interpret complex datasets in user-friendly formats. For example, managers can leverage AI to gain insights from dashboards, enabling them to understand trends and identify actionable strategies without needing advanced technical skills.The Role of Critical ThinkingA key question arises: as AI becomes more integrated into decision-making, will critical thinking diminish? Keith addresses this concern by encouraging a balanced approach. He believes AI should enhance human capabilities rather than replace them. By using AI-generated insights as a starting point, professionals can apply their expertise and intuition to delve deeper into the data, ultimately leading to more informed and innovative decisions.ConclusionKeith Goode's insights reveal the immense potential of data in transforming HR practices. Through platforms like ZeroedIn, organizations can harness their data to make better, faster decisions that positively impact their workforce. As technology evolves, the fusion of human insight and data intelligence will be crucial in navigating the future of work.

Summary John Pavlovitz, author of the book, Worth Fighting For: Finding a Faith That Makes a Better Human, discusses his journey from being a conservative evangelical pastor to a more progressive Christian ethos. Tim and John discuss the tensions between personal convictions and pastoral expectations, the challenges of navigating relationships within the church, and the importance of humanizing people in the midst of political differences. Takeaways Many people within conservative evangelical communities feel torn between their convictions and the community they love, making it difficult to navigate their beliefs and relationships. It is important to humanize people and remember that individuals within the Christian nationalist movement are not a monolith. There is diversity of thought and experience within these communities. Dehumanization is a dangerous path that can lead to violence, and it is crucial to maintain empathy and respect for others, even in the midst of political differences. Authentic dialogue, empathy, and compassion are essential in bridging the divide and fostering understanding between different theological and political perspectives.  Navigating relationships with people who hold different beliefs requires curiosity, understanding, and respect for their journey. Being a progressive Christian involves the challenge of maintaining relationships while advocating for systemic change. Unity, empathy, and humanizing the conversation are essential for moving forward and creating a more inclusive society.
