Among the many challenges of working with, using, and managing organizational data, HR professionals must decide what mechanisms are most useful. Dashboards can be created using a number of products. Some organizations have enterprise software that offers a full spectrum of dashboard capabilities while others have more limited output platforms. In this discussion, consider the following groups for HRM data and determine which group or groups should be considered as primary, secondary, or not at all in developing dashboard data requirements. The groups include executives, senior managers, HR professionals, managers, supervisors, and employees. The data structure needs for each of these groups differ by role and function.

In your post, address the following. You are encouraged to use sources from any and all areas available to you.

Which groups should have access?
What should the data structure look like in terms of presentation?
What type of data and information would be useful to the selected group?

Discuss any other aspects of dashboard design, data structure, and presentation format you think are important.
