Delivering An Integrated Digital Employee Experience
Christy Punch, Sr. Product Manager, Engineering Experience Global Digital Services| Liberty Mutual
The Wells Fargo digital workplace, Teamworks, supports more than 255,000 employees who work in 31 countries and territories. In addition to using Teamworks, Wells Fargo employees use on average four to five different role-based or administrative systems every day, resulting in communications overload and a disjointed digital employee experience.
This session will share how the Wells Fargo Digital Workplace team is connecting data and systems from across the company into one integrated digital employee experience, including:
Creating multiple ‘views’ of the home page that surfaces personalized content resulting in a more relevant home page
Using a card-based, adaptive design that gives employees easy access to critical news and tools, anywhere and on any device
Aggregating and simplifying system-generated notifications to drive reduction of high volumes of internal email
Using an inside-out (and outside-in) approach to connect employees to the brand and to increase story reach
