Every engagement since 2011 started with a question, asked almost word for word by a workforce planning leader, an HR executive or a CEO. This is one of them:
“We have a new taxonomy. Do we throw away all our historical statistics?”
What the Question Really Asks
The dilemma every reorganisation creates: keep the history and freeze the taxonomy, or modernise and lose years of trend data. Most tools force the choice.
How OXYGEN Answers
Retroactive Org Restatement: replay the organisation of three years ago through the taxonomy of today. History is remapped, not discarded, so trends stay comparable across every reorganisation. Almost no platform in the market can do this.
