Simitri created a programme of highly-customised virtual instructor-led training (vILT) webinars to help a global software company to drive a cultural shift throughout the region. The content helped employees develop the right mindset, manage themselves, and collaborate with stakeholders as they adapted to major changes facing the industry.

Challenge

As a multinational information technology company faced the challenges of transitioning to cloud-based computing, senior management sought to develop competencies of 850 employees spread throughout Asia Pacific. Key focus areas included mindset and motivation, adapting to change and building better relationships internally and externally

Solution

Simitri developed a customised course featuring three webinars focused on developing the right mindset, managing myself and collaborating with stakeholders. Attendees joined remotely from 11 countries, with select facilitated sessions in English, Japanese, Korean, and Mandarin.

Results

Engagement from participants and managers was very high. Of those attending the first session, 96% returned for the second session and 92% returned again for the third. With strong feedback and observable behavioural changes, senior management expanded the programme into new business units in China, India and US.
