The Situation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unifying a global workforce around a common goal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A leading medical device company, renowned for its life-saving innovations, aimed to leverage its expanded market presence following a strategic merger. This strategic move broadened their reach and positioned them for significant growth. However, a crucial element for success was missing: a unified workforce aligned with the company’s financial goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Aligning the workforce with corporate financial goals<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the promise of growth, financial analysts reported that the merged entity had failed to meet performance expectations. Employee engagement lagged behind, and a significant number of employees had not registered their company-issued stock. indicating a disconnect with the company’s financial health. This suggested a lack of understanding of free cash flow, a metric reflecting the company’s ability to invest in growth and reduce debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further complicating matters, 30% of the newly merged workforce spanned 60 locations across the globe, presenting a language barrier that needed to be addressed. To unlock the full potential of the merger and achieve their ambitious financial goals, the company needed to bridge this gap and foster a culture of ownership among its global workforce.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Implementing the free cash flow initiative<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To bridge this gap, BI WORLDWIDE collaborated with the company to create an integrated engagement initiative based on the “Progression of Engagement” model, which focuses on three pillars: Learn, Commit, and Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
