Human Resources Director Canada, a publication that focuses on the real issues and challenges facing the HR professional, writes about FOUNT’s latest research. The article summarizes the fact that employees and managers have different ideas about this issue – and it’s costing money.

“While most leaders believe they are well-informed about the work friction their employees experience, this research clearly indicates a stark divide,” said Christophe Martel, co-founder and CEO of FOUNT, an SaaS provider that conducted the research.
