Redefining
                               Business Challenge
                               Reinventing the recognition and reward program was something that

recognition
                               Dyson ANZ knew would spur employee engagement. A new approach
                               to facilitating recognition would help make the program more tailored
                               and consistent.

                               Guided by its core values, Dyson ANZ began to redefine its recognition
                               and reward program goals with a focus on improving the frequency
                               and quality of recognition.

                               Some Dyson ANZ team members had exposure to the Achievers
                               platform in their roles at other organisations. They had experienced
                               the benefits along with the positive impact the platform could have
                               on an organisation’s culture and decided this would be a good fit for
                               Dyson ANZ.

Business
                                      Dyson ANZ knew when it set out to implement a recognition program
                                      that there was a real need for a program like Achievers within the
                                      organisation, and the positive response from their employees has

impact                                reinforced their decision.

                                      Within the first 90 days, the platform rollout, the communication
                                      associated with it and the positive energy and buzz generated has
                                      resulted in tangible business results.

                                      Key statistics include:
                                        •   Increase in NPS score YoY
                                        •   Uplift in YoY Sales performance
                                        •   97% activation rate
                                        •   Monthly active usage of 82%
                                        •   Uplift in employee engagement score

Platform
                                      The 3 aspects of the platform that have stood out for
                                      Dyson ANZ are:

features                              1.    Social recognition
                                      The overall employee response to peer-to-peer recognition has been
                                      very positive. The platform’s ability to let employees appreciate and
                                      thank their own team members and other cross functional teams
                                      has broken geographical barriers and resulted in a strong sense of
                                      camaraderie among employees.

                                      2.    Points based recognition
                                      Leaders have also benefited with the ability to recognise easily and
                                      further engage with their team members through allocation of points

                                      3.    Leaderboards
                                      The leaderboards have helped showcase top performing employees
                                      and made them more visible, inspiring others to raise their
                                      performance and experience the same form of public appreciation

 In July 2021, Dyson’s Australian Contact Centre recorded an improvement in sales perfor mance
            with the Achievers recognition platform being a key driver of this success.
The engagement boost

“With 97% of accounts now activated and
82% actively using the account each month
the Achievers program has helped us increase
sales YOY, improve NPS and helped improve
our engagement scores”

Head of Customer Care ANZ
What’s next?
                      The overall response to the platform has been outstanding with leaders
                      receiving unprompted positive feedback about the platform via casual
                      comments, internal emails and mentions at team meetings.

                      As employees draw down on their points and start redeeming them
                      for purchasing, Dyson ANZ has seen spontaneous ‘thankyous’ with
                      employees sharing what this means to them and how the experience
                      has made a difference to their working lives, resulting in a big uplift in
                      engagement levels.

                      With its initial program objectives met, Dyson ANZ is eager to embark
                      on the next steps in its employee engagement journey. Enabled by
                      the strategic support provided by its Achievers program and customer
                      success manager, Dyson continues to focus on pioneering ways to
                      drive engagement.

                      Given the popularity of Achievers, Dyson ANZ plans to continue to
                      reinforce the program’s value as an engagement hub by adding even
                      more initiatives, such as: the ‘Feedback’ tool to engage, educate and
                      inform employees through surveys, forms, polls, and quizzes and
                      enable actions that have a direct impact on engagement. Dyson ANZ is
                      also looking at testing and trialing different result driver campaigns to
                      further drive engagement with their frontline teams— all while keeping
                      recognition at the center of what they do.

                      Dyson ANZ also looks forward to rolling out Achievers to additional
                      teams of retail experts and their retail partners. Together, Dyson
                      ANZ and Achievers will remain partners in employee engagement,
                      celebrating the programs’ milestones and continuing to identify new
                      ways to deliver real employee engagement and business results.
