Our methodology in action for Fortune 500 clients

A major financial institution engaged Emerson to help their leadership group create a positive and inclusive work environment. We developed a workshop for executives. At the end of the workshop, the participants provided real-life examples of how diverse cultural perspectives can cause workplace misunderstandings, described how culture impacts work behavior, identified ways to increase productivity by improving communication skills across diverse teams, and made plans to create a more inclusive and affirming work environment.

We help organizations capture the benefit of their transformation initiatives. 
We don’t care what you’re launching – a new technology, product, service, market strategy, operating model – we’ll help you achieve the intended benefit sooner.

A meat processing company wanted to help its 100,000 employees live their corporate values and culture, so they turned to Emerson. We visited 19 plants to conduct interviews, run focus groups, meet with leadership teams, and tour the facilities. We identified gaps between self-image - who the client said they were on paper - and what employees were experiencing, day-to-day. Based on our recommendations, the client moved forward with communication infrastructure improvements to make their values a reality.

A global technology company recognized their executives needed greater awareness and sensitivity to make their multicultural teams more powerful. Emerson presented the Broadening the Perspective workshop which helps leaders take advantage of their diversity and multiculturalism to gain competitive advantage. Based on an in-depth cultural assessment, we designed a custom solution for our client, including leadership training, awareness training, and management/team leader training. The result: employees were more likely to work with their teams to innovate and take risks. Our client attributed this shift to the more inclusive environment we helped create. Comments from participants of the workshop: “Exceeded my expectations.... Should be a mandatory and comprehensive global diversity curriculum for all new hires, middle management and senior executives.... I now have more consideration for using diversity as a tool instead of just a 'difference to overcome'.... My expectations were much lower. I thought it would be a waste of time. I was totally wrong.”

I thought it would be a waste of time. 
I was totally wrong.
