LONDON, June 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP SE (NYSE:
SAP) today announced that Nestlé, the world's largest food company,
has implemented the SAP® SuccessFactors® continuous performance
management (CPM) functionality on mobile devices to facilitate
ongoing feedback and performance coaching for its employees. Part
of Nestlé's digital workforce strategy, CPM helps the company
engage and retain top talent by fostering continuous dialog and
feedback between employees and managers with easy-to-use,
leading-edge performance and development tools. This announcement
was made at SuccessConnect® in London taking place June 12-14 at the ExCel London.
With employees present in 191 countries, Nestlé needs to engage
its people with broader business goals and strategy while also
standardizing performance management and development. By shifting
to a continuous performance management model with the help of SAP
SuccessFactors solutions, Nestlé's employees and managers can turn
a backward-looking annual assessment into an ongoing series of
activities that focus on employee development to drive continuous
performance improvement. The company can also align performance
management with other critical HR and business processes.
Nestlé is empowering a modern digital workforce by ensuring its
global employees have access to a cloud-first, mobile-enabled,
flexible HR platform. To help standardize, simplify and unify its
HR data and processes, Nestlé is currently planning the rollout of
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central and SAP SuccessFactors
solutions for workforce analytics and workforce planning across all
regions with a target go-live date at the end of 2019. The latest
introduction of CPM along with the previously implemented SAP
SuccessFactors solutions for performance and goals, compensation
and succession helps Nestlé to engage, motivate and retain a highly
skilled, diverse and global workforce.
"Nestlé is truly one of the most recognizable and innovative
companies in the world," said Robert
Enslin, Member of the Executive Board of SAP SE and
president of Cloud Business Group, SAP. "It's refreshing to see the
Nestlé commitment to every individual in its massive workforce. It
recognizes that investing in a differentiated and digitalized
experience for employees today is a strong investment in the future
of both its talent and the company. We're excited to continue
innovating and partnering with Nestlé to provide an employee
experience that truly powers its journey to become the world's
leading nutrition, health and wellness brand."
Tarun Wadhwani, head of
Integrated Talent Development at Nestlé, and Karen Lofthouse, senior HRIS specialist at
Nestlé, will join SAP SuccessFactors product leaders James Harvey, Thomas
Otter and David Ragones
during the product keynote on June 14
at SuccessConnect in London.
