We're often asked about the ROI of Callimac. Here are some elements, and they start with a finding: we massively underestimate the cost of an unsupported manager.
The numbers are public
Absenteeism costs an average of €1,535 per employee per year in direct costs, and the leading cause of long-term leave remains psychosocial risks (WTW 2024). Average turnover in France reaches 15% and is equivalent to roughly €20,000 per replaced executive (Observatoire Diot-Siaci/IFOP). And only 7% of French employees are truly engaged, while engaged teams generate +23% profit (Gallup 2024).
The link to management is direct
The quality of the managerial relationship is the number one factor in engagement and retention. A manager who knows how to give feedback, defuse conflict, or support a struggling team member acts on all three levers at once: reducing tensions that cause absenteeism, retaining teams, and creating the conditions for engagement.
Yet, fewer than one in two managers worldwide has received management training (Gallup).
What Callimac concretely changes
Callimac doesn't replace training. It complements it, every day, in the moments when the manager needs it: before a difficult conversation, after a conflict, facing a sensitive decision. They always have access to an AI management assistant grounded in over 100 reference academic models, customized to their organization's culture and practices.
Beyond traditional HR metrics, supporting your managers produces equally tangible effects:
Ultimately, the real ROI isn't another tool. It's stopping the wait until management problems become HR problems.
