Enhancing a Leader’s Influence in the C-Suite
With uncertainty in the broader economy, our client recognized the strategic need to stay attuned to their workforce to be resilient through shifting market dynamics. As an analytical leader influencing C-level leaders, our client was seeking access to real-time insights to benchmark their workforce experience against the broader context in which the company operates. Recognizing that data drives conviction and conviction enables decision making, they were looking for a reliable source of workforce data to help influence leaders to act.
“Our leaders are making decisions in real-time. We need real-time access to real-time data so we can make the right decisions for our company and our workforce.”
The idealis Approach
With data powered by CivicScience, idealis offers data and insights from over 100,000 U.S. workers representing the current U.S. workforce as measured by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Hearing the questions that were on the clients mind and bracing for issues that may impact the workforce in the future, the idealis team provided our client with data and insights on emerging and existing trends through our Pulse of the U.S. Workforce Quarterly Reports.
The report, designed by organizational psychologists and data scientists, leverages idealis’ proprietary human-centered approach to leadership to understand the drivers of the human experience at work across multiple levels - from how individuals are doing, to how leaders and teams are operating, to how organizations are functioning, to how workers are navigating societal dynamics in the world of work. With a range of 100,000-250,000 respondents across every sector, industry and geography in the U.S., the report armed our client with a benchmark to point to when reviewing their own data with C-level leaders in the company.
