Memra Language Services is a learning and analytics laboratory that brings sociolinguist research techniques into traditional workplaces to capture and analyze employee language-use.
Linguists who work for Memra use language data to deliver nuanced insights about company culture, employee engagement, manager effectiveness, and team functionality. These linguistic insights are then used to design company-specific, language-based training.
Memra transforms organizations and people by harnessing the technology they've always had at their disposal, but have never learned to use: language.
So what, exactly?
Language Does More
Data Analysis
Sometimes HOW your employees say something can tell you a lot more than WHAT they say.
Capture these subconscious nuances by analyzing them linguistically.
Memra takes your language data, performs sociolinguistic analysis by identifying key features, and reports on actionable insights.
Corporate Training
Team training should be engaging, meaningful, and most importantly - actionable.
Memra trains employees and management teams on how language functions in the brain and out in the world - and how to apply this knowledge in the business context. Trainings involve LIVE linguistic analysis and practice-able “next steps”
