As an influential figure in organisational psychology and as a professor at Queen Mary University of London, Rob's insights have shaped the field of People Management in a number of significant ways, which we’ll explore during the course of today’s show. A recipient of numerous awards, including a Lifetime Achievement Award from HR Magazine, Rob is also the Scientific Director of the Centre for Evidence-Based Management.  Here are some key learnings from the episode: Evidence-Based HR (EBHR): The concept of EBHR is based on using multiple sources of evidence, structured approaches, and high-quality, relevant data, originating from practices in medicine.Challenges and Benefits of EBHR: EBHR faces challenges like new fads and the need for quick fixes, but it enhances decision-making and HR credibility when aligned with business goals.Application of EBHR in Practice: Effective EBHR involves identifying business problems first and using real-world examples from Uber and Shell to illustrate its application.The Role of AI in HR: AI can analyze large HR datasets but requires human judgment to interpret results and make informed decisions based on high-quality data.Addressing Fear and Resistance: Overcoming fear in HR involves embracing failures as learning opportunities and fostering a culture of questioning and critical thinking.
