CEO asks: Which 3-5 metrics show Empatyzer improves collaboration?

Empatyzer combines diagnosis, micro-lessons and an assistant, so proving impact requires more than tracking logins or lesson opens. Start by measuring HR reports about difficult conversations, accusations of poor communication skills, or inter-team complaints — a sustained drop here means issues are being resolved earlier and locally. Next, track escalations to HR or higher managers: if Empatyzer helps de-escalate conflicts and readies managers for difficult talks, escalations should fall faster than raw adoption. The third metric is attrition tied to management and culture; compare turnover before and after rollout while controlling for other factors and expect measurable reductions with steady use (roughly 180 days). Fourth, measure engagement with short pulse surveys or existing employee surveys and via team performance metrics — Empatyzer boosts engagement through better 1:1s, clearer communication and fewer frictions. Fifth, capture qualitative signals of improved conversation quality: higher feedback ratings, more agreed follow-ups after meetings, shorter conflict-resolution cycles and positive anonymous pulse comments. For rollout, set baselines for each metric, realistic 90- and 180-day goals, and track trends rather than single data points. HR typically watches relative percentage changes and velocity — for example a 20–30% drop in HR reports within six months or halving of escalations in a pilot — while leadership looks at turnover shifts and correlations with financial indicators. Adoption and activity dashboards are leading metrics; to confirm real impact triangulate quantitative reports and turnover, pulse/engagement results and qualitative conversation assessments. Normalize metrics per employee and per week, report monthly, and compare to a control group or historical trend. Distinguish short- and long-term signals: drops in reports and escalations can appear quickly, while culture and turnover improvements usually take several quarters. Control for context — reorganizations, hiring waves or market forces — and collect a few qualitative case studies from managers and HR (anonymized) that show Em helping prepare feedback or de-escalate disputes. Report metrics by team with aggregation options, preserving privacy and avoiding exposure of individual conversations. Set dashboard alerts for sudden spikes in reports or escalations to ensure the system isn’t masking problems. Also track intermediate indicators like number of completed agreements after 1:1s, conflict-resolution speed and participation of key managers in micro-lessons. When these metrics move together — fewer reports and escalations, lower turnover, higher pulse engagement and better qualitative conversation scores — you have strong evidence Empatyzer is improving collaboration, not just being used. Allow a minimum 180-day evaluation window for stable effects, though de-escalation signs may appear sooner, and translate metric changes into business terms (productivity, hiring costs, operational risk) to support executive decisions.

Measuring reductions in HR reports and escalations, lower attrition, higher engagement and improved conversation quality after 180 days gives a reliable picture of Empatyzer’s real impact on collaboration.
