Our Approach
We take a data-centric approach to HR data to create custom solutions that have real and actionable business impact. We combine our years of experience in academic research and corporate settings with our expertise in HR, data analysis, and people analytics to bring tools for on-time business decision support. We believe in continuously listening to employees using multi-layered platforms so organizations can pivot quickly and build a supportive environment that fosters a positive employee experience – leading to a more productive and engaged workforce who are advocates for your company and brand.
Our Story
In our experience working within the HR and people analytics space, one thing has become very clear: the way we are thinking about and approaching human resources needs to change. Data is our friend, and we need to do more than just collect it. We need to ensure that we are constructing valid measures that are actionable, and support real and on-time business decisions. These tools also need to be simple while yet contextual to recognize the complexity of people, and the situational strength of being at work. Data often feels like our enemy when it doesn’t tell us what we want to hear, or worse – says nothing at all.
Real analytics about people is an investment. This company was founded on that understanding. We are here to help your company #thinkdifferently about HR, and provide customized solutions to put your company at the forefront of the future of work.
