41 Willis Towers Watson Testimonials

"Agility can seem difficult when you are part of a large, mature company; people often think that this way of working could only exist in start-ups. Our role is to make it safe for people to operate in an agile manner by getting comfortable trying little things, failing small and learning. This is the only way we’ll start to make it part of how we operate.”

“Willis Towers Watson has a truly unique set of solutions that integrate HR software products with consulting services and personalized data. That powerful combination is what brought our portal to life and helped us create an exceptional employee experience for our team members. The implementation team at Willis Towers Watson were true partners; they had the tools and knowledge to successfully lead us through our myHR launch.”

“The ‘Our Way’ values are a key statement of what’s important to us as a business and also the behaviours that are required to drive our future success. After launching the, Our Way values to the new organisation, we wanted to run a survey to establish a base line and to understand how and where we should focus to improve.”

“We are going to have to invest in our next generation of leaders. I now factor into my business that I’m going to have to train people forever.”

"You start to deconstruct jobs into tasks and pockets of work, and your employee population from numbers of people to clusters of skills.”

"What’s really required of future workers is fundamentally to be avid learners. Companies need to be in a place to help their people reskill.”

"Companies are going to need more of very scarce talent in areas such as AI and data science. Those people are already very expensive and hard to find. HR leaders are going to have to get good at growing their own and reskilling their people.”

“We have a big role to play around culture and purpose. We need to make sure that we continue to build this as our North Star across the organization and leverage it for the decisions that people make every day.”

“We have reached a cultural tipping point in the workplace, driven by public attitude shifts on employment policies, blurred lines between work and home life, and generational differences in the expectations of work itself.”

"In a fluid organization what binds people together is culture. In other words, culture is the new structure.”

“When your organization’s work is less concrete and more dynamic, people identify more with intangibles. They’re going to grab what they can to give meaning to what they do. That’s why culture and purpose and shared values aren’t just fads.”

"The culture of Upwork is foundational to who we are; it’s the driving force for why people come to work. Everyone’s here because we believe in the mission; it surrounds everything we do. We talk about how we create programs that are a physical manifestation of our values and mission.”

“You need fewer experts to know how to operate and you need more people who can think conceptually and use data to their advantage.”

"How we apply data and technology is increasingly more critical to ensure a scientific and evidencebased profession. We need to move from a world of experience to one of science, analytics and judgement.”

"It takes a tremendous amount of knowledge about the business and good data to tell you what your real needs are and where you should be focusing your time. HR is in a unique position to draw insights from trusted data to help make smarter decisions.”
