The connection between employer/organization and its people is like that of land and farmer; each brings the other to life. They appear to be strung together, and yet, engage in ways that are both separate and inseparable.
ICE© Cube was created purely from the point of view of what is functionally important to the practitioner. This tool measures the human capital input that goes into building the organization i.e. capability – people and people related infrastructure- and commensurately its output i.e. effective performance.
Academically, there are a plethora of theories that form the foundation of Human Resource Management. Theories abound on what makes the relationship between employer and employee tick. At the crux of it is the knowledge and understanding of the skills, know-how and aptitudes that people need, to work effectively; the incentives that encourage them to give their best; the systems, organization structures, use of technology, and the way work is organized so as to enable people to perform, is, what makes Human Capital effective. The relationship between the employer and the employee is what brings all these factors together.
Here, we refer to Human Capital as the accumulation of skills, knowledge, abilities, experience, training, wisdom, expertise and judgement that people bring, which when added to the physical capital invested in by the organization, forms the organization’s wealth. Both physical capital and human capital together are directed to achieve the organization’s goals.Functionally, this relationship is driven by the business’ purpose and culture – both internal and the external (as in social norms), legitimised by policies, practices and other deliberate interventions that the employer puts in place in order to govern and create a sense of predictability of outcomes both for itself and its employees.
This tool strategically measures your organizational Capability and Effectiveness at the level of dimension, component and theme for twenty components with several sub-components within. It highlights the diagnosis in each section, based on the relative importance, you ascribed for each component. The definitions of dimension, component and theme are described below in your report for ease of understanding.
About ICE Cube – Technology Enabled Human Capital Diagnostic Tool
Ideate Influence Implement2
Not only are the dimensions and components the rallying points of interaction between the employee and the organization, they also form the lifecycle of workforce management in an organization.
If Capability is like the gears of a clock, then the factors that affect Effectiveness are like the coiled spring that stores the energy of motion. Finally, the Importance attributed to a component within a dimension by the employer, is the pendulum - the weighted balance - that determines the direction and level of swing.

An ICE© Cube report is like your company’s Human Capital health check statement. It tells the story of the Capability and Effectiveness of each component within a dimension in your organization and rank orders the analysis in order of Importance to your business. So, first to bring you on board, given below are definitions of some often used terms in this report: A Dimension is a strategic pillar that aggregates several cohesive components to build a human capital framework. Our five dimensions are:
1. Attract and Retain 2. Measure Performance 3. Reward and Recognize 4. Build Capability 5. Institutionalise Process & Culture
A Component comprises of several themes constructed to diagnose the capability and effectiveness of strategy, People, policy and process (e.g. Workforce Planning, Talent Acquisition and Onboarding). A Theme is a statement within a component, constructed at three levels of maturity that form the building block (e.g. Recruitment Capability). Capability is a “Measure of your organization’s ability to achieve intended results”. An adaptation of Maturity model forms the basis of three levels of Capability with level 1 being Basic capability and Level 3 is an Evolved capability. Effectiveness is the “Degree to which intended results are achieved”. Importance is the “Relative degree of criticality of the component for your business”.
The Report
Ideate Influence Implement4Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Section 5

Our research indicates that capability and performance of components in each dimension impacts and is impacted by components in other dimensions. In the diagnosis below, some findings from the correlation studies of the initial data of 1000+ companies, across ten countries in three continents are shared to provide further insights.
Attract & Retain Capability Effectiveness
This dimensional pillar finds its feet in the dynamics that surround the notion of attractiveness. People join an organization based on what is attractive about it, and retain their affiliation if the attraction is sustained.

Management; Career & Succession Planning are the components that make up this dimension and form the basis of interaction and relationship building between current employees, potential employees and the organization.
The overall capability of this dimension is 'Moderate' contributed mainly by the following components:1. Workforce Planning, Talent Acquisition & Onboarding2. Career & Succession Management
However, the following components contributed differently.1. Structure, Grades,Titles & Pay (Basic)2. Talent Management & Retention (Basic)
This dimension appears to be delivering 'Effective' performance primarily due to the contributions of the following:
1. Workforce Planning, Talent Acquisition & Onboarding2. Career & Succession Management
However, the following components contributed differently.1. Structure, Grades,Titles & Pay (Least Effective)2. Talent Management & Retention (Least Effective)
Amongst the four components 'Structure, Grades,Titles & Pay', 'Workforce Planning, Talent Acquisition & Onboarding', 'Talent Management & Retention' and 'Career & Succession Management' have been rated as being most important by you for your business.
Our analytics on this dimension established the following:1. On capability, three of the four components- Workforce planning, Talent Acquisition & On
boarding, Talent management & retention, and Career & Succession Management indicate strong interrelationships with each other with a positive correlation of +0.80. In other words, maturity level of one component is likely to have a positive impact on the other two.
2. Component Structured, Grades, Title and Pay has a direct positive correlation of +0.58 with component Talent Acquisition and Onboarding, indicating that capability to resource talent might be enhanced by investing in the right framework and process of the former.
3. In terms of effectiveness, it appears that there is a strong correlation between each of the four components with a coefficient range of +0.74 to +0.86. In other words, effectiveness of one component would have a high positive impact on the performance of the other three.
4. Components in this dimension would have an impact on the components in other dimensions and vice versa. For example :
a. Talent Acquisition is impacted by the policy and philosophy of rewards and Employer brandb. Career & Succession Management is impacted by Learning & Development and Leadership
development and vice versa.
Similarly, it is important to identify factors related to and interconnected with components in this dimension and those of others, to discover specific strengths, solutions and areas of focus.

Measure Performance & Value Capability Effectiveness
At the centre of this dimension is the interaction between organization and employees with a view to integrate hard business agenda with people's sentimental and material needs. The components in this dimension - Balanced Score Card or a similar tool, Performance Management, Human Capital Index, and Employer Brand Value - seek to value and acknowledge the tangible and intangible contributions that support organization and individual success.
The overall capability of this dimension is 'Moderate' contributed mainly by the following components:1. Performance Management2. Human Capital Index
However, the following components contributed differently.1. Balanced Score Card (Evolved)2. Employer Brand Value (Basic)
This dimension appears to be delivering 'Effective' performance primarily due to the contributions of the following:
1. Balanced Score Card2. Performance Management3. Employer Brand Value4. Human Capital Index
Amongst the four components 'Employer Brand Value' has been rated as being most important by you for your business.
Our analytics revealed the following results for this dimension:1. On capability, all the four components- Balanced Score Card (BSC), Performance Management,
Human Capital Index (HCI) and Employer Brand Value indicate strong interrelationships with each other with a positive correlation of +0.70 to +0.89. In other words, maturity of one component is likely to have a high positive impact on the other three, with the strongest between Employer Brand value and HCI at +0.89.
2. In terms of effectiveness, it appears that there is a strong correlation between each of the four components with a coefficient range of +0.72 to +0.81. In other words, effectiveness of one component would have a high positive impact on the performance of the other three.
3. Components in this dimension would have an impact on the components in other dimensions and vice versa. For example :
a. Performance management impacts and is impacted by all the components under the dimension Rewards and Recognise as well as the component- Organizational Alignment
b. Employer brand value is impacted primarily by talent acquisition, rewards, engagement, culture and Learning & Development.
Likewise, it is essential for your organisation to find reasons associated and interconnected with components in this dimension with those of others to discover relative strengths and improvement areas.

Reward & Recognize Capability Effectiveness
Reciprocity forms the substance of this pillar. Through this powerful mechanism organizations seek to motivate, define, sustain, regulate, and create new behaviours. It seeks to invoke an emotional connection between the individual and the organization that is satisfying and binding through tangible and intangible means. Rewards, Benefits, Recognition - Financial & Non-Financial, Short & Long Term Incentives, form the components that are the touch points of interaction and relationship building in this dimension.
The overall capability of this dimension is 'Moderate' contributed mainly by the following components:1. Rewards Programs2. Benefits Programs3. Recognition - Financial & Non-Financial4. Short & Long Term Incentives
This dimension appears to be delivering 'Effective' performance primarily due to the contributions of the following:
1. Rewards Programs2. Recognition - Financial & Non-Financial3. Short & Long Term Incentives
However, the following component contributed differently.1. Benefits Programs (Least Effective)
Amongst the four components 'Rewards Programs' has been rated as being most important by you for your business.
Our analytics confirmed the following findings for this dimension:1. On capability, all four components- Rewards, Benefits, Recognition, Short & Long Term Incentives
(S<I) indicate interrelationships with each other with a positive correlation of +0.56 to 0.84. In other words, maturity of one component is likely to have a positive impact on the other three with the strongest between S<I and Recognition at +0.84.
2. In terms of effectiveness, it appears that there is a strong correlation between each of the four components with a correlation coefficient range of +0.69 to +0.92, with the strongest between Recognition and S<I at +0.92. In other words, effectiveness of one component would have a high positive impact on the performance of the other three.
3. Components in this dimension would have an impact on the components in other dimensions or/and vice versa. Two examples :
a. All components in this dimension mutually impact Performance Management, Talent Acquisition and Talent retention, amongst a few others.
b. Short & Long Term Incentives and Rewards Programs impact Culture, Organisation Alignment, and Performance management, amongst few other areas.
In the same way, it is critical to ascertain elements linked to and interconnected with components in this d imension and those of others to determine expl ic i t s t rengths and development areas.

This pillar is constructed on the sense of mutuality - to be able to separately and jointly learn and apply learning and/or experience in order to expand and develop people and organizations together. Learning being an active and participative process brings people to life, and the application of learning and the changes that occur therein, bring organizations to life. The components in this dimension - Leadership Development, HR Structure & Capability, Knowledge Management, Learning & Development, International mobility & global mind-set - are aimed at fostering a relationship between employees and the organizat ion, enabl ing a mutual learning-to-adapt, grow, and change, environment.
The overall capability of this dimension is 'Moderate' contributed mainly by the following components:1. HR Structure & Capability2. Knowledge Management, Learning & Development3. International Mobility & Global Mindset4. Leadership Development
This dimension appears to be delivering 'Effective' performance primarily due to the contributions of the following:
1. HR Structure & Capability2. Knowledge Management, Learning & Development3. International Mobility & Global Mindset4. Leadership Development
Amongst the four components 'HR Structure & Capability' has been rated as being most important by you for your business.
Our analytical studies showed the following for this dimension:1. On capability, all the four components- HR Structure & Capability, Learning & Development (L&D),
Knowledge Management (KM) and Leadership Development have strong interrelationships with each other with a positive correlation of +0.70 to +0.84. In other words, maturity of one component is likely to have a positive impact on the other three, with the strongest between KM, L&D, International Mobility & Global Mindset at +0.84.
2. In terms of effectiveness, it appears that there is a strong correlation between each of the four components with a coefficient range of +0.71 to +0.85. In other words, effectiveness of one component would have a high positive impact on the performance of the other three with the strongest indicated between International Mobility & Global Mindset, KM and L&D at +0.85.
3. Components in this dimension would have an impact on the components in other dimensions or/and vice versa. A couple of examples being :
a. HR Structure & Capability impacts Process, Technology & HR risks;b. Leadership Development impacts Career & Succession Management and talent
Management.
It is advised that you identify factors interconnected with components in this dimension and those of others to ascertain particular strengths and focus areas.

At the crux of this dimension is the stringing together of separate entities - the organization and the individual - to build a relationship platform which facilitates understanding and supports the meeting of needs of mutual significance. The components in this dimension - Organizational Alignment, Ways of working & Engagement, Processes, technology & risk; Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability & CSR - support in translating learning, objectives, practices, and fundamental values - both stated and adopted - into the organizations way of life.
The overall capability of this dimension is 'Moderate' contributed mainly by the following components:1. Organizational Alignment2. Ways of Working & Engagement3. Process, Technology & HR Risk4. Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability & CSR
This dimension appears to be delivering 'Effective' performance primarily due to the contributions of the following:
1. Organizational Alignment2. Ways of Working & Engagement3. Process, Technology & HR Risk4. Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability & CSR
Amongst the four components 'Organizational Alignment' and 'Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability & CSR' have been rated as being most important by you for your business.
Our analytics identified the following findings for this dimension:1. On capability, three of the four components- Organizational Alignment; Ways of working &
Engagement; Process, Technology & HR risks have shown fairly strong interrelationships with each other with a positive correlation of +0.63 to +0.73. In other words, maturity of one component is likely to have a positive impact on the other two with the strongest at +0.73 between Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability & CSR and Process, Technology & HR Risks.
2. Component Diversity & Inclusion, Sustainability & CSR shows the lowest positive correlation of +0.43 with component Organizational Alignment indicating that capability in the former has relatively lower impact on the latter.
3. In terms of effectiveness, it appears that there is a strong correlation between each of the four components with a coefficient range of +0.68-0.81. In other words, effectiveness of one component would have a high positive impact on the performance of the other three, with the strongest between Ways of Working & Engagement and Process, Technology & HR Risks at +0.81.
4. Components in this dimension would have an impact on the components in other dimensions and/or vice versa. A few examples are:
a. Process, technology and HR Risks impacts component HR Structure and Capability.b. Organizational Alignment impacts Performance Management, Employer Brand Value, and
Rewards.

Your organization's policies and processes to build an employer brand are documented and repeatable with limited leverage of technology. It works on improving or changing its processes or policies as and when required. Its Employer Value Proposition (EVP) is broadly defined and led by leaders to enable desired outcome. People responsible for delivery of the agenda may have limited skills and expertise to initiate better practices.
Inspite of minimal capability built for its employer brand, its clearly producing better than expected results. Its focus on employer brand is possibly beginning to impact business results positively and attract key stakeholders. Chances are that your people feel more engaged, communicate better with each other, and enhance customer experience and therefore the overall brand. In the medium term, investing in Employer Brand helps in attracting and retaining key talent which in turn supports business growth, and contributes to the overall brand value of the company. In order to continue the journey towards building and sustaining an employer brand, it is best to review the reasons for current success and institutionalise them to build a firm base for building a best employer brand for your organisation.

Figure 5.0
Figure 5.0 above is an 'Action Score Card' organized as under:
All the components under each dimension are stacked in the order of high to low priority.Each component is force ranked on its relative importance to your organisation. Low scores on a component for capability and effectiveness and rated as most important indicates that it is high priority and needs immediate attention. Similarly a component with relatively low scores and rated as important will be your next priority. All of them are ranked from 1 to 20 based on their scores. We recommend you to pay attention to the top five components for your organisation.
For the components that require immediate attention, it is recommended that you devise strategies and finalise solutions with clear milestones to enhance the desired level of capability, instil governance to track progress and measure their effectiveness to produce the intended business results. Given that the employee life cycle is interconnected, the influence of each dimension on others, also need to be balanced to ensure that you have a well-oiled clock.
