Visier – A Cloud-Based Analytics Platform Improving Employee Retention, Diversity, and Inclusion, Engagement

The Silicon Review

We all know that humans are good decision-makers when they are unbiased. However, there are times when they give in to emotions, prejudices, biases, etc. Decisions made under such influence can hurt the company’s ROI and growth. Also, the time that is taken to analyze and manage such a vast amount of data is more and prone to mistakes. This is where Predictive Analysis and Machine Learning come in. When these decision-making models are fed with data, they can deliver error-free decisions, provide actionable insights, and catch trends in the data, which helps in propelling the growth of the organization. Companies experiencing high turnover can use People analytics or HR analytics to understand the reasons for the dip in their performance, and the factors which impact their productivity. By doing so, they can instill faith in their employees, and they can maintain the current workforce instead of replacing it. The idea is to identify factors that affect employee engagement and overcome them by fostering suitable conditions.
