How SurveySparrow's 360-degree assessments changed GCMMF’s (Amul) growth strategy

Goal

Amul recognized the need to strengthen its employee training and development programs to foster a culture of continuous improvement and growth. Thus, they intended to use 360-degree surveys across different groups for all managers and those overseeing operations. The goal was to evaluate employee competencies, specifically focusing on skill and performance-based components.

Challenges

Amul has been actively engaging in diverse training programs for its employees. However, they aspired to empower their employees to voice their own training and development needs. Amul sought to identify areas where employees required additional skills or competencies. This involved overseeing multiple 360-degree feedback groups, managing responses, and collaborating with external evaluators. Apart from that, ensuring active participation and improving the response rate presented a significant challenge.

Solution

SurveySparrow smoothened the process by setting up a custom role in their feedback system and effortlessly managing the diverse 360-degree feedback groups. This process was further simplified by standardizing multiple question sets for various employee segments. Furthermore, real-time response tracking empowered Amul to make immediate decisions, such as adjusting assessment deadlines and sending reminder emails.

From challenges to cheers! Amul sent out the printed reports to the individuals to help them understand their strengths and areas for improvement. Moreover, Amul leveraged these invaluable insights to establish strategic alliances with esteemed institutions such as IIMs and the Institute of Rural Management, Anand (IRMA), along with several other management institutes. This endeavor involved the creation of customized training programs and workshops, aimed at nurturing employee development.

One of the most liked features of SurveySparrow is personalized feedback with end-to-end report customization. It generates in-depth insights for each employee, helping build a thriving workforce.

Amul also witnessed a significant feature in the form of survey branding. Branded reports, customized for Amul, not only reflected the brand’s overall aesthetic but also emphasized the nuanced differences between participants’ self-assessments and external reviewers’ evaluations.
