The Challenge

Can we predict organizational churn using non-traditional, low-bias engagement signals?

Strategic Approach

Technical Implementation

  • Decision: Prioritized Explainable AI (XAI) over raw predictive accuracy to build stakeholder trust.
  • Constraint: Data must remain anonymized and compliant with organizational privacy policy.
  • Trade-off: Used simpler linear models for transparency rather than black-box deep learning.

Business Impact

  • Translates 'Employee Sentiment' into 'Financial Opportunity Cost'
  • Allows for targeted retention spend instead of global across-the-board increases
  • Demonstrates high empathy for the 'Human Systems' that drive business outcomes

Ambiguity Handling

The primary challenge was validating engagement signal causality vs correlation in turnover prediction.

Strategic Assumptions

  • Assumed engagement signals correlate with turnover intent
  • Assumed XAI increases stakeholder trust vs black-box models

Integrated Narrative

My MBA focus on HR revealed that most churn is reactive. My CSE background allowed me to build a proactive audit tool that makes the 'Why' clear to executives.
