Team of the year
Retail Concepts (AS Adventure & Juttu)
The goal of this project was to break away from traditional approaches and technologies, and align our performance management and employee evaluation processes with our organisational values: agility, open feedback, communication, and a healthy focus on personal and professional growth.
We envisioned a platform that would transform the yearly performance cycle into a transparent continue feedback process that actively involves every employee to take part in their own development journey (bottom-up and top-down). To this end, Retail Concepts (A.S.Adventure & Juttu) formed a strategic partnership with jiGSO, and co-created a web-application that now empowers more than 1250 employees to give feedback, set personal goals, evaluate skills, and have regular 1-on-1s with their manager. Moreover, the project was a comprehensive effort that involved members from all levels of the organisation: from C-level executives to a diverse team of HR-experts, our Sales, IT and marketing departments. In summary, we believe that our project is a testament to Retail Concepts commitment to constant innovation, while never losing sight of our core organisational values. In the end, this project gave rise to a brand new performance management platform that encapsulates our organisational DNA – a platform built not just for us, but with us.
