Prescriptive Analytics: The type of analysis described involves recommending specific actions (training interventions and job rotations) to prevent high-performers from leaving the organization. This is characteristic of prescriptive analytics, which not only predicts future outcomes but also suggests actions to achieve desired outcomes.

Action-Oriented: Prescriptive analytics focuses on what should be done to address a problem or opportunity, providing actionable recommendations based on data analysis.

Use of Data: The HR manager uses data from the attrition analysis to inform the recommended actions, which is a key feature of prescriptive analytics.

Outcome Focused: By prescribing specific interventions, the HR manager aims to influence future outcomes positively, such as reducing attrition among high-performers.
