Today is a good day to
shop till you drop at H&M.
The current crisis turned everything upside down – shopping malls are mostly empty, and many people try to avoid visiting stores. Where otherwise a wild shopping experience takes place, there is now an empty space. This change has, an impact on retail employees: a massive number of employees who usually work in stores now suddenly find themselves at home. Unusual situations cannot be avoided – let's see how organisations can use this ‘free’ time for the better.
The Swedish clothing brand H&M faced this task. Because H&M’s employees are people of action, they don’t like to sit around doing nothing. On the contrary: at H&M, education and development are one of the most important values. For this reason, they put GoodHabitz online trainings in their shopping bag!
Many organisations and their employees currently have to deal with unfamiliar situations. To get everyone out of this period in the best possible way, it is important to maintain the connection to the company and make sure that everyone does something good for themselves – for example working on ones own personal growth.
This scenario currently affects H&M, one of the world’s most popular fashion brands: due to the current crisis a large number of employees who normally work in the stores have to stay at home. They can no longer follow their usual activities focusing on happy clients and the latest trends in clothing. Therefore, the Swedish textile company introduced, in addition to its in-house trainers a digital learning platform, GoodHabitz online trainings.
With the implementation of GoodHabitz online trainings, the main focus was on the personal development of employees at H&M. With the GoodScan, learning gets on an individual level and employees are recommended to take courses that are tailored to their personal skills.
Presenting these results to H&M’s sales managers, they can focus on developing their employees’ most important skills.
Through the involvement of all managers and the support of the HR department, H&M is actively working to ensure that GoodHabitz online courses and assessments are successfully implemented throughout the company.
This is an inspiring story for every company struggling with unfamiliar situations but still wanting to continue offering their employees the opportunity to develop on a personal level.
