Wellence

At Wellence, we’re tackling a critical challenge in the workplace: manager effectiveness and employee experience. Research shows that manager-employee relationships are the leading cause of disengagement and employee turnover, costing businesses billions every year. Employees join organisations, but they leave managers. Despite the clear link between manager effectiveness and retention, most organisations lack the tools to support and develop their managers effectively. Our solution is simple yet transformative: we empower managers to become impactful leaders who inspire, engage, and retain their teams. Wellence provides personalised, real-time insights and actionable coaching embedded seamlessly within daily workflows on tools like Slack and Teams. By facilitating conversational, adaptive, and data-driven engagement, we help organisations create thriving teams, help employees to effectively manage up and boost retention. Our vision is to create workplaces where managers are the driving force behind happier, more productive teams, fostering cultures where employees reach their full potential. We believe that by enabling better managers, we can transform the future of work and unlock tremendous value for organisations and employees alike. Our team brings together deep expertise in organisational psychology, leadership, and technology. Dib, who faced burnout early in his career, and Gaurav, who witnessed the challenges of poor management firsthand, are passionate about solving this problem. Together, they’ve spent years researching management strategies and engaging with senior HR leaders to build a platform that directly addresses these challenges. Wellence has already gained strong validation through enthusiastic feedback from HR leaders and active pilot users. With Wellence, we’re poised to lead a movement that transforms managers into leaders and creates workplaces where people thrive.
