Essential Huddle Metrics for Enhancing EVP and Boosting Talent Attraction & Retention

Employee Value Proposition (EVP) encapsulates the unique set of benefits employees receive in return for their skills, capabilities, and experience. By continuously monitoring and refining your EVP, you can enhance employee satisfaction, drive engagement, and improve talent attraction and retention.

The following metrics are designed to help you assess critical areas that influence your EVP and make data-driven decisions that support both team dynamics and broader organisational goals using Teamgage. They are also crafted to be actionable at the team level while providing valuable insights for senior leaders.
