We work with a lot of large companies within NZ and have seen the challenges faced by HR teams in implementing learning and development and talent processes. We believe that the TalentPulse solution by Accendo will fill a much-needed gap and provide significant value to organizations here,”

Accendo is a Malaysia company offering a Talent Intelligence Platform and was recently featured in multiple Gartner reports as a best-in-class solution provider of Assessment for Talent Acquisition and Development. Accendo aims to help organizations revolutionize how they attract, assess, align, develop and retain talent. Their intelligent talent platform, TalentPulse, provides a wide range of insights into each employee’s skills and assists in determining whether they are ready for promotion, who is most likely to succeed when promoted, and the things they need to address if they wish to be promoted. TalentPulse achieves this by consolidating talent data, speeding up talent management cycles, and improving talent decisions. Adds Sharma Lachu, CEO & Founder Accendo, “We are very excited with our partnership with Fortuna. As innovators in the talent space, we seek like-minded organizations that share our vision of helping HR drive their digital HR agenda, be more data-driven, and help organizations achieve agility and resilience. Fortuna International, with their know-how and expertise in the talent assessment space as well as overall HR consulting experience, is a most suitable partner for us to expand into New Zealand and explore opportunities in this market.”

With the constant disruptions becoming the new norm for businesses nowadays, Fortuna International shall now also carry TalentPulse locally to address the need for a consolidated assessment marketplace as well as the constant push to increase talent decision quality. Significantly reducing the risk of a wrong hire/promotion can have a drastic impact on an organization’s performance and bottom line.
