We read the terrain first.
The people side of change is ground you build on. We survey it before you build: where talent holds, where it slides, where the plan will fault.
The data is the terrain.
Retention cliff · synergy ridgeline · read in section
We do not put your workforce risk in a pie chart. We render it the way it actually behaves: as ground with elevation, grade, and failure lines. A retention cliff is a cliff.
Retention cliff · section view
Month 0 to 24 after close. The drop at the earnout boundary is where the people side of synergy is lost.
Synergy by function · ridgeline
Each peak is realized synergy. Elevation, not bar height. The skyline a buyer reads at a glance.
