How we helped
EDS partnered with PepsiCo to conduct a top-down, three-level educational process aimed at developing an inclusive organizational culture. Level 1 provided both diversity awareness and skill building. Training of internal facilitators resulted in 55 PepsiCo employees who partnered with EDS trainers to deliver phase-one training to over 10,000 employees and managers. Level 2, focusing on all people managers, provided self- additional skill building in the areas of dialogue and conflict management. Level 3 focused on institutionalizing an inclusive environment.
“EDS has demonstrated a strong commitment to understanding our business and company culture. They have customized their presentations to link PepsiCo’s initiatives and core values with the key concepts taught in workshops. The training sessions have received high reviews as being relevant, impactful and actionable. The end result is that our managers are becoming more culturally competent and are continuing to improve the inclusivity of our work environment. Ultimately, we expect this work to make a difference to our bottom line.”
