Overview
Driven by the ambition to have greater autonomy over its employee engagement programme and to design and improve experiences across the entire employee lifecycle, Olam International selected Qualtrics EmployeeXM to understand and take decisive action as a global organisation in key moments of the employee lifecycle.
How Olam is closing the experience gap
Understanding the entire employee lifecycle
With operations in 60+ countries globally, Olam uses EmployeeXM to engage 2,000 leaders across the entire business at various stages of the employee lifecycle, such as on-boarding, exit interviews, and learning and development. The qualitative and quantitative insights provide the company with a deeper insight into its employee experience, enabling it to design and deliver targeted and meaningful action.
Enabling managers with insights
A key reason Olam selected EmployeeXM is the real time access to insights. Managers across the business are provided with scorecards to view data in real time. They also have the ability to analyse trends over time and segment data by different regions, roles, and demographics to further tailor the action taken. Olam plans to integrate its Qualtrics platform with SAP SuccessFactors to create a seamless onboarding process.
Autonomy drives fast action
The ability to quickly and easily make changes to engagements at scale means interactions can be instantly configured to address changing situations. Having this ability ensures maximum value from the support and services being delivered. For example, during the COVID 19 pandemic Olam was able to quickly identify and deliver the support its employees and their families needed most.
