Abstract: The attention towards HR Analytics is very good but the adoption rate is still not that impressive. John Boudreau (2017) in an article said: "progress in HR analytics has been glacially slow though industrial surveys suggest a stunning rate of anticipated progress". This research paper attempted to identify the key adoption issues with HR Analytics aiming for its successful adoption. To identify the adoption issues with HR Analytics, a couple of active HR Analytics professionals from different industries and countries have been surveyed randomly with an online Google Forms questionnaire. The findings are a mix of beginner issues to advanced issues of HR Analytics adoption. This research survey result motivates to go for another advanced research survey on the measures to take when adopting HR Analytics and using it the way to bring in the best business benefits out of it.

Abstract: Many organizations in Saudi Arabia especially the family-owned firms lack in human resources both in quantity and quality. Firms, which have a policy of training their employees do not have strategic training programs to meet the current and future needs of the organization. The reason for this is absence or lack of training need analysis (TNA). This paper focuses on TNA in family-owned firms in KSA and is based on mixed method analysis of research conducted in 2014. Qualitative research is based on the interviews of HR managers and quantitative research is with the help of survey questionnaire of HR employees of the family-owned firms.
