Why Learning is Essential to Employee Engagement

While internal mobility was already a growing trend, it is definitely here to stay beyond 2020. Companies that excel at internal mobility are able to retain employees nearly twice as long as companies that struggle with it.

Join Archana Ramesh, Head of People Science, APAC at Glint to hear more about how you can develop great managers.

This session was part of LinkedIn+Glint Impact 2020 Deliver People Success virtual event held on December 3rd 2020.

How are you adjusting your people programs and setting up your employees and organization for success?

Join us for a fireside chat with Rosanna Durruthy, Vice President of Global Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging at LinkedIn, and Matt Roddan, Head of People Science Consulting for North America at Glint, to discuss how organizations can drive meaningful conversations around the importance of creating inclusive workspaces where employees feel supported, thrive in their careers and have a strong sense of belonging.

Astro Malaysia Holdings Berhad (“Astro”) is Malaysia’s leading content and consumer company, serving 5.7 million or 75% of Malaysian households across its TV, radio, digital and commerce platforms.
In 2019, Astro identified a need for change within the business and embarked on its "Go Beyond" programme to focus on customer centricity, putting the customer at the heart of everything.

Astro was experiencing heightened competition in the market, changing brand perception as well as low levels of internal collaboration and reduced employee morale. All this was having an impact on customer satisfaction and customer churn.

The team identified three core behaviours which they believed would drive a change in the business - inclusivity, accountability and creativity - and set about putting them at the centre of everything they do.

As a result, the latest employee survey showed an increase in Customer Focus from 51% to 66% and Collaboration from 58 to 68%. Overall Employee Engagement has risen from 71% to 74%.

Join us as we discuss Astro's journey with Gavin Baxter, Human Resources Director, Astro. Hear more about how they defined the key drivers for change, built communication and collaboration within the organisation and translated that into an improved customer experience.

As the world of work changes, how can organizations reimagine their approach to employee productivity? They can start by letting go of the flawed idea of “tracking” productivity.

In our latest Reimagine Work conversation, Kevin Meyer, Head of Strategy and Business Development, North America, at Glint, and Amit Shinde, Director, Customer Solutions at Microsoft will discuss:

- Why the traditional “command-and-control” approach to employee productivity shortchanges both the organization and its people
- Why it's crucial for organizations to empower their employees in this new reality of flexible work hours and remote workplaces
- How to use employee engagement insights and workplace behavior analytics to reimagine how work gets done

This webinar covers data-backed trends and organisational insights around:
- How organisations are supporting their employees right now
- The critical role of managers
- The vital relationship between learning and employee engagement

Multiple survey approaches. Weeks of waiting for results. A major opportunity for company-wide synergy. Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) wanted to evolve its engagement program to create a level of agility that matched the pace with which its business is transforming. But where to begin?

In this webinar replay, Kyle Gerjerts, Director of Talent Management at WBA, the global leader in retail and wholesale pharmacy, sat down with Tom Nolan, Senior People Science Consultant at Glint, for a fireside chat on how this company evolved its employee engagement strategy to become more agile in the midst a global pandemic. Kyle will explain how WBA went from running siloed engagement survey programs, to standing up a consistent, yet locally flexible, process globally. In addition, he’ll explain how the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated their need to listen to colleagues in a more agile, continuous manner.

How can we best support our people today and prepare them for tomorrow? While the path to the new world of work is different for each organization, let’s explore how we can reimagine it together.

In this presentation, Dana Udall, Chief Clinical Officer at Ginger, and Carolyn Kalafut, People Science Consultant at Glint, will sit down to discuss how employee well-being and mental health trends have shifted throughout these past few months, how this affects productivity and what organizations and leaders can do to better support their people moving forward.

The world has drastically shifted and organizations and their people are navigating a new set of challenges posed by these changes. Your people are foundational to your organization's ability to persevere. And many organizations have responded by putting their people first—from rapidly addressing employee’s physical safety in the mass migration to remote work to asking for feedback more frequently to providing resources to help them navigate the changes they face in their personal and professional lives. How can you support the happiness and success of your employees during a time like this?

There's a big reset happening at work. As we look forward to the next phase of recovery from the COVID-19 crisis, CEOs, HR pros, and employees are acknowledging that in the future, work is going to look very different.

In this fireside chat between Glint head of people science Justin Black and Josh Bersin, we'll explore the questions on every HR pro's mind: How do we "return"? What elements of work might be different? How can we use this as an opportunity to help our people be happier and more successful in the long-run? And, what would it look like to create a more people-centric organization?

The likelihood of employee feedback fueling organizational success hinges on the actions taken based on that feedback. However, the momentum that is built before the survey is typically lost between telling employees what is going to be done as a result of their feedback and actually addressing issues to make positive, incremental changes. This can lead to higher levels of disengagement. Glint data shows people who don’t believe action will be taken are seven times more likely to report being disengaged compared to those who believe action will be taken.

Rather than perpetuating a broken system, Glint has reimagined action taking on survey feedback for today’s people-centric organizations. As we like to say, let’s move from action planning to action taking. We believe a new approach to acting on survey feedback is needed; one that consists of a set of unified practices, enabled by technology, that make action taking inherently collaborative. In short, we want to move from cumbersome action planning to action taking that is simple, collaborative, and integrated. The process and the technology work together to drive focus, create structure, and develop meaningful habits. Learn how in this webinar.

How can we best support your people today and prepare them for tomorrow? The path to the new world of work is different for each organization. But it will likely pass through three phases:

- Respond: Develop a rapid response to the needs of your organization.
- Recover: Create a thoughtful plan for recovery that’s tailored to your situation.
- Reimagine: Transform your strategy for long-term success by putting your people at the center.
