Otta's take

Assessing every employees soft skills helps businesses optimize operations and ensure teams are running smoothly. However, understanding how each role should be measured can be unclear, and existing job success measurement platforms are generic and do not consider the niche skills of each role.

Spotted Zebra provides a data-driven employee assessment platform for businesses, helping them identify and assess the soft skills required for success within each employee role. Once a role is assessed, the platform generates bespoke measurement tools that can be used by both employers and employees, helping to drive success within workforces without generalized expectations.

Whilst employee success measurement platforms have existed for decades, such solutions generally use a “one size fits all” approach, offering measurements for generic data points such as sales leads or query resolutions. Spotted Zebra, on the other hand, has recognized that customized data points are required to successfully measure the success of each job role, empowering businesses to optimize operations and hire smarter through its platform.
