Promotions based onevidence, not politics.
Stop promoting based on tenure or who has the loudest voice. Wudd's Promotion Engine uses a multi-pillar scoring system to guarantee your next leaders are chosen through undeniable, cross-departmental evidence.
A score anyone can check.
Three pillars, one number. Custom weights for your organization, a maturity timeline to prevent premature promotions, and a clear data confidence level on every score.
The Execution Index measures task completion and delivery reliability. The Network Influence Index measures how widely peers trust the candidate across team boundaries. The Cultural Adherence Index measures how strongly they represent your company values. Wudd combines these into a single Promotion Value Score, dynamically adjusting if a pillar lacks data to ensure fair evaluations.
Built for fairness and accountability.
Train a replacement first.
When a manager is nominated for a promotion, Wudd pauses the paperwork until they prove they have successfully trained someone on their team to take over. You cannot move up until you secure your succession line.
Blind cross-checks.
Managers document what their team member accomplished, and the team member answers the exact same questions independently. Wudd compares the two perspectives against actual performance data, flagging any discrepancies before a promotion is approved.
Tamper-proof rules & full audit logs.
Scoring requirements are locked the moment a promotion cycle begins, preventing anyone from retroactively lowering the bar to sneak a candidate through. Any manual override by management requires a formal, written justification and is permanently recorded in the audit log.
A promotion path people can trust.
Every decision is documented down to the individual actions behind the score. Direct managers can only recommend, while approvals are strictly enforced. Build a culture where employees trust the process, knowing that promotions are earned, not given.
