What about data privacy?

Big data can be daunting, especially in relation to data-privacy.

Veldhoen + Company have developed frameworks, templates, and guidance to define clear use cases and gain buy-in from leadership teams and work councils, right at the start of a Viva Insights project.

By focusing the privacy discussion on the purpose and research questions, V+C will support you by building a research framework and establish boundaries for what data (not) to include in order to answer the most relevant research questions and business challenges.

V+C provide full transparency of the architecture for the data pipeline and interact directly with data privacy officer(s) to gain approval for the privacy solution.

Example Viva Insights use case

The HR team of a global consultancy firm received signals that their people were overloaded with collaboration and employee retention was declining in the past year.

Therefore, the HR team engaged us to investigate collaboration trends by comparing collaboration patterns across two time periods.

Our analysis validated the sentiment around increased collaboration load over time for the organisation as a whole.

Furthermore, we identified collaboration load specifically increased for middle managers and leaders.

We socialised these findings with managers and leaders to understand both the antecedents and impacts of these results on their productivity and wellbeing, to obtain a more holistic view of this business challenge.

 

After-hours work analysis - Veldhoen-2 After-hours work analysis - Veldhoen-1

By combining the quantitative outcomes of the Viva Insights data, with the qualitative output of the socialisation process, we were able to provide this client with an action plan and specific focus points for the development of their new leader and management training program.

Our project gave a rationale for the negative sentiment, as well as a clear and positive way forward.

Since the start of the program, employee experience factors such as; retention, engagement, and wellbeing all went upwards.
