Make the RTO call with data on how your people actually work best. Not a mandate and a hope.
Blanket return-to-office policies treat every team the same, then leaders find out which teams needed flexibility only after the resignations start. Marlee shows you how your teams actually work best, in the office, at home, or somewhere in between, so the policy fits your people, not the other way around.

The Mandate Gamble
A company-wide RTO mandate is a bet made with no data on which teams it will actually help, or quietly cost you.
Some teams do their best work face-to-face. Others perform best with focused, flexible time. A single policy applied to everyone ignores that difference entirely, and the cost shows up later, in disengagement and attrition you didn't see coming.
"Marlee support teams to rapidly cross-culturally collaborate on commercial outcomes, across distributed teams in South Asia, the Pacific, the Middle East, and North Africa."

WHERE MARLEE EXCELS
This isn't personality typing. It's a predictive model built from your own top performers.
Evidence-Based Motivation Science
25+ years of research behind how Marlee measures collaboration and working style preferences.
Leverage Science on Ideal Work Environments
See how your specific teams work best, rather than applying an industry-generic hybrid policy.
Team-by-Team, Not Company-Wide
Different teams get different guidance, backed by data, not the same mandate applied uniformly.
BUILT AROUND REAL PEOPLE
Some of your best work happens in the office. Some of it doesn't. The data knows which is which.
Marlee shows you where and how each team actually collaborates best, so the policy reflects the work, not a one-size-fits-all guess.
"We found out which of our meetings actually needed to be in person, and which never did."
"We stopped treating every team the same and started building the policy the data actually supported."
"The pushback dropped once people saw the policy was based on how we actually work, not a mandate from nowhere."

WHY NOT JUST...
Badge swipes measure attendance. They don't measure whether the policy is actually working.
ALTERNATIVE | WHAT IT GIVES YOU | WHAT MARLEE GIVES YOU |
|---|---|---|
Blanket RTO mandates | The same policy applied to every team, regardless of how they actually work. | Team-by-team guidance based on real working style and collaboration data. |
Engagement surveys | A lagging sentiment score, usually well after the policy has already landed badly. | Predictive insight into how a policy will land, before you announce it. |
Brute force communication | Unnecessary fracture in culture, productivity and performance. | Deep insight into your team's natural motivations to thoughtfully manage communication strategy about where we work. |
