A Zoe health dimension (12% weight) that measures the health of the human system. Tracks eNPS, voluntary attrition, psychological safety, leadership alignment, DEI progress, and L&D investment. Culture problems are leading indicators of execution problems — a declining Culture & People score often precedes drops in Delivery & Execution.
Culture precedes performance. A declining Culture & People score is a 3-6 month leading indicator of drops in Delivery & Execution and Financial Vitality. Voluntary attrition, psychological safety erosion, and leadership misalignment ripple through hiring velocity, decision latency, and customer success. PE investors know that post-close value creation depends entirely on the people staying and the new leadership integrating smoothly. Culture problems predict resignation cascades and integration failure.
Zoe tracks eNPS, voluntary attrition trends, cross-team collaboration density, psychological safety signals from communication patterns, DEI progress metrics, and L&D investment rate. These come from Slack patterns, exit data, and HR systems. Culture & People carries 12% weight in the Zoe Score and correlates strongly with retention risk and integration friction.
