Soluflex and AtmanCo: Where Science Reinforces Intuition in Talent Management

Founded in 2008, Soluflex has established itself as a strategic player in human resources management for SMEs. Its main objective is to transform companies into elite employers by optimizing both their talent attraction and retention strategies.

"What we do at Soluflex is transform companies into elite employers by optimizing their HR strategies, both offensively (talent attraction) and defensively (retention and mobilization)." - Étienne Claessens, President

With a network of nine franchises in Quebec and an approach focused on excellence and continuous improvement, Soluflex supports its customers in HR outsourcing, recruitment, coaching and team building, among other areas. The company relies on solid, scalable HR strategies to enable managers to focus on growing their business.

The integration of AtmanCo has enabled Soluflex to enrich its support by adding a scientifically validated psychometric tool, thereby strengthening its recruitment and talent management processes.

Before adopting AtmanCo, Soluflex was looking for a comprehensive, reliable and objective tool to validate its recruitment and talent management intuitions. Although the company had a proven methodology, it was finding inconsistencies between employers' expectations and the reality of the profiles hired.

"I hired someone without taking the AtmanCo test first... then after the fact, I realized the person didn't have the right profile for the job." - Maude Rodrigue, Franchise Owner

Without a scientific tool to confirm or adjust their assessments, Soluflex and its customers often had to make decisions based on subjective impressions, which could lead to costly mistakes in recruitment and team management.

Another challenge was team building and labor relations management. Without a structured framework for understanding communication styles and team complementarities, they could find themselves reacting to, rather than preventing, certain internal conflicts, damaging cohesion and organizational effectiveness.

Key points:

Prior to working with AtmanCo, Soluflex faced several key challenges in its recruitment and talent management services, including:

• The lack of a reliable, scientifically validated psychometric tool to confirm or adjust recruitment intuitions.
• The need for an objective method to avoid the costly errors associated with decisions based on subjective impressions.
• Inconsistencies between employers' expectations and the profiles actually hired, despite a proven HR methodology.
• A lack of a structured framework to better understand communication styles and team dynamics, which made conflict prevention difficult and undermined internal cohesion.
