Thank you, Willis. Often, I encounter dashboards that focus on "non-actionable" variables, which can obscure the important, actionable insights we need. Additionally, gathering data on non-actionable variables is easier than establishing relationships and delving deeper into actionable variables.
I wonder about the actionable or not distinctions. Age/Gender/Demographics...if Women are leaving at a significantly higher rate, perhaps a review of workplace culture could be in order. EG is there a source of some sort of sexism that is making women more likely to leave? As an example
Nice example of digging a little deeper to try to identify the root causes. I do wonder if saying that Culture is deep and actionable enough. Saying you have a toxic culture is hard to demonstrate and hard to measure but it would certainly be an avenue worth exploring.

Great article, love the actionable / non actionable variables breakdown!
Thank you Jackson - I can't tell you how many times I've seen people analytics "insights" on stuff that you can't really do anything about.
