Engagement reimagined
One Person at a Time
Engagement happens at the individual level. Micro-interventions achieve what macro programs cannot.
Time Between Matters
The time between surveys is more important than the survey window itself. Continuous listening wins.
Speak When Ready
People should have the option to speak when they want to, not just when asked. Always-on feedback channels.
Entire Lifecycle
Engagement needs to be measured over the entire employee journey—from hire to retire.
Intrinsic Motivation
Motivation is intrinsic but gets impacted by events over time. Track and respond in real-time.
Personalized Experience
Use technology to personalize employee experience and engagement at scale.
Our engagement construct
The WeSoar Engagement Construct is built around four core factors that truly measure employee connection.
R-Squared
The power of Retention—where you unlock infinite possibilities for fostering employee commitment and loyalty.
A — Advocacy
Empower employees to become passionate advocates. Harness employee advocacy to amplify your brand and attract top talent.
B — Belonging
Foster a strong sense of belonging. Create a collaborative, supportive environment where everyone feels valued and connected.
C — Commitment
Cultivate unwavering commitment. Inspire employees to go above and beyond, driving productivity and loyalty.
R² — Retention
Would they stay even if offered a similar job elsewhere? Measure true loyalty and predict retention risks.

Analytics that go beyond dashboards
Most platforms give you charts. WeSoar gives you a branded, insight-ready PowerPoint that your CHRO can present to the board — generated in one click.
One-Click Branded PPT Export
Generate a complete presentation in your organization's branded PowerPoint template — with auto-generated commentary and insights, not just raw charts. Apply any slice or filter first, then export. Board-ready in seconds.
Heatmaps & Red/Blue Flags
View all factors across all departments in a single heatmap. Red flags automatically highlight outlier items significantly below average. Blue flags highlight strengths significantly above average. Drill down to the smallest reportable data set.
Unlimited Slicing & Dicing
Slice results by any dimension — department, location, tenure, grade, gender, age band, manager, or any custom demographic field. No limit on the number of cross-tabulations.
eNPS Tracking
Employee Net Promoter Score tracking with trend analysis, segmentation by demographic, and comparison across org units and survey waves.
Org-Unit & Manager Reports
Dedicated reports per org unit and per manager — so every leader sees their team's results alongside the organization-wide picture. One-click comparisons across demographics.
Text Analytics & Sentiment
AI extracts themes and sentiment from open-ended feedback. Understand not just what employees scored, but what they said and how they feel.
BestMarking™ — not benchmarking
External benchmarks compare your scores against unknown organizations with different policies, cultures, and contexts. That's interesting but not actionable.
BestMarking™ compares every score against the best-performing unit inside your own organization — same company, same policies, same systems. If one department achieves 92% on manager effectiveness while another scores 64%, the gap is entirely addressable because both operate under identical conditions.
BestMarking™ vs External Benchmarking
BestMarking™
"Your Riyadh branch scores 92% on manager effectiveness. Your Jeddah branch scores 64%. Same company, same policies. The gap is actionable."
External Benchmark
"Your organization scores 73% vs industry average of 71%." What does that tell you? Very little about what to do next.
From insights to action — not just reports
AI-Generated Action Plans
Based on your specific results and context, AI generates recommended actions with owner assignment, timelines, and progress tracking. Managers don't start from a blank page.
AI-Powered Manager Nudges
Personalized, timely nudges for managers based on survey results. Positive reinforcement for behavior change, specific calls-to-action, and progress tracking.
Mobile-First Survey Experience
Conversational, mobile-optimized survey experience that feels natural — not like a spreadsheet. Higher completion rates through design that respects employee time.
