While the rise of people analytics has dominated the narrative in and around HR departments, there is a critical audience on the executive floor that needs to understand its impact: the board of directors. Directors have a fiduciary duty to stockholders that includes three legal obligations: 1) the duty of care that directors make decisions with due deliberation; 2) the duty of loyalty that directors act in the interest of the corporation (i.e., in the interest of shareholders); and 3) the duty of candor that directors provide shareholders all information that is important to evaluation of the company.
