@ranaq How analytics can help uncover the relevant insights to build powerful retention programs? How can we find out what drives employee happiness, commitment, engagement, performance and productivity?

First step would be to start with engagement surveys and then analyse the results. Different people are motivated in different ways, so there may not be a one size fits all solution; but teams tend to believe similarly. And survey results work best when directed for a team as a whole. If you frame your surveys with the correct context and ask nuanced questions, the results will give you a fair indication of whats working and whats not. For retention programs, the first step is to identify there is an attrition risk - predictive analytics help here greatly. For every employee, taking ONA interaction frequency, engagement scores, pms scores, increment history and internal + external compa together, gives a good insight on flight risk. Once identified, these folks can be proactively put on a retention plan
