关于客户
A leading industrial manufacturer is committed to achieving a workforce that reflects the communities where it works and serves. This organization, with over 35,000 employees in over 50 countries, believes diverse teams are key to achieving their mission. They aim to continue building on their success improving diversity that started over fifteen years ago. The company has a strong focus on diversity and inclusion, aiming to achieve gender equality by 2030 and matching its employee populations in terms of gender and ethnic diversity to the areas they have locations and the people they ultimately serve. They have been dedicated since their inception to raising the quality of life for all, and they recognize the need for different diversity improvement strategies across their global locations.
挑战
The confluence of three factors–the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter, and an economy negatively impacting women and minorities–generated the need for a heightened sense of action to improve diversity and inclusion at this organization. In fact, the CEO’s number one request from the people analytics team is for diversity and inclusion metrics and analysis. They have been dedicated since their inception to raising quality of life for all. This includes continuing work on their public pledge to achieve gender equality by 2030. The organization has also committed to matching its employee populations in terms of gender and ethnic diversity to the areas they have locations and the people they ultimately serve. Operating in over 50 countries, they recognize they must have different diversity improvement strategies across their global locations. With limited resources, the organization has chosen to first establish goals for improvement in the top ten countries where they have operations. They are doing benchmarking in their locations to establish and meet these goals. With gender, their goal is 50/50 by 2030. However, mirroring the ethnicity of their workforce to the communities they serve is more complicated. For example, in the mid-west U.S., the ethnic demographic mix is less diverse.
解决方案
This organization has an internal program dedicated to improving diversity and inclusion. Under this program and using Visier as their people analytics platform, they did a talent refresh strategy, forecasting out to 2030 to determine what it would take to achieve their goals. Their analytics and strategy are nuanced, digging into how long it will take to reach gender parity in, for example, director and above levels, as well as predicted rates for hitting their ethnic goals for these roles. Visier is used to keep track, in real-time, of the predicted rates for hires, promotions, and retention among gender and ethnicity groups. The people analytics team compares these rates, directing leaders to any opportunities or problem areas. They use Visier to answer questions along the employee lifecycle processes of attract, develop, and retain. For attracting talent, Visier People: Talent Acquisition helps them track the diversity of their hiring pipeline. For development, people analytics enables the team to monitor promotion rates to see if women and men are getting equitable ratings, the right development opportunities, and going through the right programs. For retention, the team measures attrition and looks at engagement, belonging, and inclusion metrics. They do an annual survey that is released to managers as long as there are at least five responses. Leaders are then held accountable for improving engagement scores. Further, they conduct sentiment analysis.

Flex Contact Center: Supporting rapid business growth with IBM Connections Cloud and IBM Verse
Flex Contact Center, a professional services company offering telesales, call-center, anti-attrition, back-office, helpdesk and collection services, has grown rapidly since its establishment in 2009. With operations in 12 sites across two states and four cities in Brazil, the company employs more than 11,000 people. However, the company realized that to prevent barriers to future expansion, it was essential to make it as easy as possible for its people to work together effectively—even if they were based in separate geographical locations. Traditional approaches to collaboration—based on email and phone calls—threatened to reduce productivity. Flex Contact Center wanted to enable better collaboration and communication across its workforce, but did not want to make large investments in infrastructure.

PureFluent: Connecting to partners and customers through the cloud for enhanced productivity
PureFluent, a translation services company, was facing challenges in managing its translation and document review processes. The company often received files in uneditable formats from customers, which required staff members to transfer text to word processing or spreadsheet documents. During the translation process, maintaining version control was a challenge because PureFluent sent work to hundreds of translators in multiple geographic locations. It was also time-consuming for staff to manage the large volume of emails and FTP transactions required to submit translations for customer review and ensure the integration of requested changes. Furthermore, staff were spending significant time hunting through their emails for specific attachments.
