Our story

Original idea

The world of work has changed and will continue to change after the pandemic. Management has become more difficult and more complex as employees and management do not meet in the same way as before. Work has become more stressful and mental health reasons have overtaken physical reasons for sickness absence. The decline in motivation and commitment has led to a large wave of redundancies. Good and well-known employers attract talent.

Our service was born out of the need of employers who need help in a situation where employee experience is the deciding factor.

Realization

We found that while digitalisation allows us to conduct agile employee surveys, it was not enough in itself to add enough value. We realised that the HR analytics provided by the surveys were not sufficiently utilized, because the surveys were conducted as always before in the past, but only with modern tools.

We found that the traditional way of doing things was slow and difficult to manage. It was too resource-intensive to carry out, decode and analyse the surveys and did not add any tangible value to businesses. 

Turnaround

We realized that there was a much bigger problem than just a need for another employee surveys and analytics tool. The market was lacking on the governance, systematic way of operating and the competence. And this even with a modern tools has resulted that people analytics being one of the biggest capability gaps for organisations! 

This is why our mission has been shaped to fill this gap and bring people analytics easily accessible and manageable with our all-in-one solution with ready to go plan that includes the digital platform, customer succees, processes and governance plans, that you can bring the impact starting today.
