Enterprise Rent-A-Car places a lot of importance on the gathering and interpreting of workforce data. We interviewed Leigh Lafever-Ayer, HR Director UK & Ireland at Enterprise Rent-A-Car to find out more about the data they collect, and how they use it.

Leigh tells us about the closed talent system at Enterprise – 99% of promotions are from within the organisation – and explains that this means that the company needs to know a lot about its talent. The HR team ‘use the data to tell a story’ about why people are attracted to work at the company, and where they’ve come from, while being transparent about the collection and use of data in the organisation.

"It’s about knowing what we’re doing, and what’s important to the business. It’s about telling people why the data is important, and what that means to the business."
