A FLEXIBILITY SUCCESS STORY FROM
Aggressive initiative retained key talent in a challenging time
Client challenge
Facing major staff realignments across US and European operations, this leading biotechnology firm determined that enhancing staff control of their schedules would strengthen retention of key contributors.
Our Intervention
Our teams drove global design research, FWA tool customization and multi-level training to transform Amgen’s approach to scheduling. Our respective senior leaders guided and regularly reinvented the “FlexAbility” system to assure consistent adoption.
Organizational outcome
The flexible work rollout was well-received across both the US and European Amgen sites. The initiative led to substantial usage of FWAs in the company and helped engage employees in the wake of the firm’s first significant down-sizing.
