FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

People who are engaged at work are more involved and more enthusiastic. They are loyal and productive and focused on getting things done. With more than 30 years of research, Gallup studies have shown that 85% of the global workforce is DISengaged from their employer.

This costs the global economy a sum of $8.1 trillion, nearly 10% of GDP, in lost productivity each year. For a company of 1,000 employees with an average salary of $50,000 each, the cost is more than $6 million annually – dramatically impacting a company’s results.

So yeah, engagement really matters.

Interpersonal Alignment shows how well two people naturally work together.

Our hiring and team building decisions are filled with unwanted bias. From how it feels to shake hands with someone to the non-work-related history we have with someone (think: how often good friends who start a business together).

Unfortunately the unconscious bias which make us like people is not a reliable indication that we will work well together.

That’s where OpenElevator’s bias-free algorithm comes in. Now you can confidently and consistently build high-performing teams based on data.

Values Alignment shows how well what the individual values matches what is offered by the company environment.

Let’s face it, we all make compromises. But when the gap between what is important to people and what they get from an organization is very big, they are unsatisfied, disengaged and looking to leave.

We help smart companies know where and what the gaps are, so they can deliver the right incentives and reduce the risk of unwanted leavers.

Predictive Index tells which individuals are best fit for a position, for example working as an accountant versus a salesperson.

OpenElevator tells you who is the best fit for working with the manager, team and what you offer in the environment for long-term engagement. Employee-to-manager fit is so important it impacts an employee’s engagement by 70%. And this impacts your company’s bottom-line, because employees with low engagement have 20% lower productivity.

DISC tells you where an individual is on a spectrum for specific attributes, including how Decisive, Interactive, Stabilizing, and Cautious a person is. Knowing if a person is high, average or low on all these traits, does not help you easily, accurately, or clearly figure out what that means for who works well together.

OpenElevator delivers, simple, accurate and actionable data on how each person in the team fits with every other person. You don’t need a psychology degree to build your best high-performing team!

The software is scalable. And the support is unmatched. We always assign you Client Coaches to support you every step of the way.

The answers to the 5-minute survey questions are not available to anyone. We only present the results of our findings, not the raw data.

Welcome aboard! There’s a global crisis in engagement. If you’re one of the few businesses that understands how empowered employees will positively impact your customer’s lives, ask us about our MasterClass which we have presented to hundreds, including at Google’s Innovation Campus in Warsaw, Poland. 

In addition to helping you assess and optimize your existing teams, we can help you hire the right candidate.

We give you three easy options depending on what you need:

  • When you need to select top candidates: imagine a dashboard that allows you to sort and filter for skills and for interpersonal fit with the manager.
  • When you need to reduce the risk of high turnover. Assess your top candidates (those who have the skills to do the job) for fit with the manager. Lack of employee-to-manager fit is the number 1 reason people quit their jobs.
  • When you need to know which candidate will work best with your existing team members. Yes, you can invite external and internal candidates to compare how well they will fit so you can build your most productive teams.

With OpenElevator you can do any of the above, easily.
