Other metrics such as implemented impact of innovations on corporate revenue and the recruiting and employer branding effectiveness are also gaining attention. Together these and other important metrics are becoming important metrics that should be measured and watched. 

As organizations increasingly place value on business metrics, HR will need to identify and update the strategic and operational metrics that it measures and reports.
