73% of Companies Don't Know Their Own Workforce — Betterworks Is Changing That

Most HR leaders believe they have solid data on their workforce. The reality? A new Betterworks report finds that less than three-quarters of actual employee skills are captured anywhere in most organizations — and 73% of companies say those gaps have directly caused negative business outcomes. In this episode, we break down Betterworks newly launched Talent Intelligence suite — a system that skips the skills survey entirely and instead infers workforce capabilities from actual work signals: OKRs, manager feedback, one-on-one notes, and peer recognition. We cover how the system works, who its built for, and why the most valuable skills data in your organization might already exist — its just buried where no one can see it.
