Your insights should describe the steps in your analysis including relevant justifications for the statistical analyses used and report significant results (including the descriptive statistics). Based on your analyses, your insights should identify ONE (1) vulnerable department and recommend TWO (2) areas of improvement (i.e., factors) for the department that may help improve engagement.
