Dr. Scott Mondore is co-managing partner at Strategic Management Decisions (SMD). He is a predictive analytics expert, technology innovator, best-selling author and speaker with more than 17 years of experience in the areas of HR technology, analytics, strategy, talent management, measurement, organizational development and customer experience. Scott is a pioneer in developing the new way for HR to approach surveys and assessments: moving from a focus on the outcomes of surveys to utilizing surveys and assessments to impact business outcomes.
