Leadership Insights: How Company Analytics Can Benefit C-Level Suite

Modern work is constantly evolving, and with it, the challenges that organizations face. Collaboration, communication, and culture are all essential elements of a successful business. However, many organizations and leadership teams struggle with these elements, leading to lost productivity, poor performance, and high employee turnover. Flowtrace, a company analytics platform, is here to help.

Problem of Lack of Visibility and Metrics

The problem with lack of visibility to organizational capabilities is real. This problem have been tried to been solved from multiple angles, including surveys, managerial training, employee activity tracking, and countless others. We guess you know the problem is real, but did you know the huge impact it has on your business?

The Importance of Collaboration:

Collaboration is essential for organizations to function effectively. However, a study by Upchain and Deloitte found that organizations with around 50 employees leave over $125,000 on the table per year when they don't collaborate. Flowtrace's analytics platform provides a comprehensive view of internal operations, including collaboration metrics, allowing leadership teams to identify and address collaboration issues within their organization.

The Importance of Communication:

Effective communication is crucial for organizations, yet many struggle in this area. A study by Project.co found that 89% of people believe effective communication is extremely important, yet 8 out of 10 people rate their own business' communication as either average or poor. Flowtrace's platform includes employee pulse surveys with high response rates, providing leadership teams with the information they need to improve communication within their organization.

The Challenges of Remote Work:

The shift to remote work has brought with it new challenges, particularly in the areas of collaboration and communication. A study by Buffer found that the biggest struggle while working remotely is collaboration and communication (20%), followed by loneliness (20%), and not being able to unplug (18%). Flowtrace's platform is specifically designed to help remote teams overcome these challenges, providing visibility into internal operations and enabling effective collaboration and communication.

The Dysfunction of Cross-Functional Teams:

Cross-functional teams are essential for organizations to function effectively. An authorative study by Harvard Business Review found that 75% of cross-functional teams are dysfunctional, and this challenge is universal across the globe. Flowtrace's platform provides metrics on team relationships, allowing leadership teams to understand and address dysfunction within their teams.

The Importance of Culture:

Culture is a vital element of a successful workplace. A study by Glassdoor found that 65% of 18-to-34-year-olds are likely to place culture above salary; that's higher than any other age demographic surveyed. Flowtrace's platform provides metrics on company culture, allowing leadership teams to understand and improve the culture within their organization.
