About Nansen

Nansen is a remote-first company providing blockchain analytics to crypto investors. In hyper-growth mode, their employee presence now covers 35 countries.

The Challenge

Nansen is determined to reward based on output. However, with no holistic view of employees, there was a serious lack of information to make informed performance decisions.

Joanna Yeoh, Director of People at Nansen, decided it was time to shake up employee performance evaluations, so she turned to Confirm for help.

The Solution

Only Confirm makes network data readily available to understand how people are performing and helping each other. Quantified performance and behavioral insights remove politics from calibrations. And live dashboards make it easy to track impact and influence—every day of the year—to make informed talent decisions whenever you need.

The Results

After a technical presentation and panel review, 2 employees who were interviewing for the same position were seemingly coming up equal. Confirm uncovered hidden and actionable data:

Employee 1

Had a majority of gold stars awarded from their own team, showcasing examples of successful people development.

Employee 2

Had a majority of gold stars from outside their team, highlighting their ideation and collaboration across the company.

"Confirm is the first tool that lets me see the behavioral side with some evidence. I can quickly get the information to make decisions."
– Joanna Yeoh, Director of People, Nansen

The Impact

With Confirm's network data and behavioral insights, Nansen's leadership team was able to make two informed strategic decisions that strengthened their business. The data revealed not just what people were accomplishing, but how they were contributing to the broader organization—uncovering hidden talent that traditional performance reviews would have missed.
