HRIS: WorkdayThe creation of a uniform and welcoming On-boarding experience for all our Global locations was the immediate challenge we set upon in collaboration with our US and India sites. This included a launch and updation of a Pre-Boarding portal for all our new SNLers leading to a Day-one experience managed by me and then tracking progress of the overall experience once the employee is transitioned to the functional team. In Pakistan almost 200+ employees were on-boarded with very high satisfaction feedback, The SNL Train The Trainer program was the real highlight during my time at the company, this was a full-day comprehensive program for Mid to Senior Management employees who opted to impart functional training to new as well as existing employees. This was remarkably successful as we held multiple sessions training closer to 50 employees. We also had a couple of refreshers.For soft skills training we created a portal for self-learning and uploaded training materials for employees to self-study. We launched a live training series which was carried out by our L&D Specialists from US, India and I being in Pakistan to cover a variety of time zones. These trainings could be attended by our employees from their desks and since they were interactive, they were much more fun. After limited attendance in the first few sessions, we had significant improvements in people logging-in as well as great feedback. At SNL Financial (now S&P Global) we implemented technology to impart language and soft skills training at the expanding organization. The language component was delivered through effective usage of Rosetta Stone software for learning better English at our non-English spoken locations. We managed and followed-up with the participants helping as many as 100 employees qualify the online series. Show less

Here time was mostly spent in bringing the Learning & Development Centre into full operation after careful planning, budgeting and construction. The organization went through a major revamp in this time and I was responsible for creation of a comprehensive On-Boarding plan for as many 15 senior management and other employees across all our main and sub-regions. Each member embarked on two-week orientation visit to gain the understanding of our operations at each regional centre. Our team was assigned an Organization Development (OD) project to review the Performance Evaluation system and it was clear from the outset that it would eventually be completely overhauled. We had to find a solution which was clear, concise and measurable. After much deliberations with the stakeholders a more practical performance management system was brought in place. Show less

I was the only dedicated officer for the function with very limited resources. But in this time we were able to establish a Learning & Development Centre from scratch and a vibrant training function which also provided support in Organization Development initiatives. The most exciting achievement was 250+ Hours of Training Content created and delivered to 300+ unique Employees of National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA), one of the largest Public Sector organizations of Pakistan. I proposed an idea to train a pool of trainers with fundamental Communication and Customer Services skills spread across 8-regions of the organization all over the country. This ambitious plan required a presentation of a comprehensive proposal to the senior leadership to commit resources to the cause. Training manuals and presentations were to be designed keeping in mind of the objectives and audience. Significant administrative effort was to go into planning and mobilizing to 8-regions at a distance of as much as 1000 kms at a time. The end result was delivery of 32 Training of Trainer sessions on Communication Skills, Customer Services and later we also added Harassment at Workplace training conducted at 8-regions of the organization, whereby I chalked up 250+ hours of training as a Master trainer. Another achievement that I take pride is the standardization of Recruitment and Promotion evaluation processes based on computerized MCQ bank for online testing and assessment of domain knowledge (Mgt/HR/IT) as well as written English language proficiency. Empowered with this new system we embarked on a Recruitment drive in which 1000+ candidates participated at 8-different regions of the country. One of the largest and fairest recruitment in the Pakistani Public Sector. Show less
