SilkRoad Technology (www.silkroad.com),
a global leader in strategic onboarding and workforce transformation
solutions, announced Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP as its 2019
Talent Activation Award Winner during Connections 2019, SilkRoad’s
annual user conference. Akin Gump was honored for its
relationship-driven employee experience and onboarding program,
particularly:
-
Employee experience: Akin Gump’s new hire onboarding experience
focuses on the human elements of being a new employee and allows new
hires to make connections more quickly with their managers and other
staff members. By leveraging SilkRoad Technology to support
simplification and automation of the process, Akin Gump was able to
remove traditional new hire barriers to promote relationship-driven
onboarding and a personalized experience for each new hire. -
Day-one productivity levels: Platforms and processes utilized by Akin
Gump reduced manual processing and administrative tasks, which enabled
new hires and staff to achieve higher levels of productivity – with
new lawyers joining the firm becoming billable on day one. -
Value and ROI: Changes made to the onboarding and employee engagement
initiatives followed best practices for mature and strategic programs
set by SilkRoad, which led, among other things, to reduced time and
resources to maintain process, more proactive resolution of issues,
greater transparency and improved communication for internal and
external stakeholder groups.
The Talent Activation Award honors outstanding employer branding and
design, innovative candidate-to-new hire experiences and strategic
excellence in leveraging the onboarding process to activate talent to
drive positive business outcomes.
