Leadership

“While working with the Beaconforce team and using their in-depth analysis capabilities to predict which employees might be at risk of resignation, we saw that the analysis matched what actually was actually happening, in reality, a little later. In other words, they provided us with a way to predict what could happen and avoid it”.
