What if I told you that my most challenging project evolved into a global program for a 20K+ person company?
Two years ago I accepted a temporary role tasked with creating and piloting a Job Rotation Program to pilot in the Americas. This initiative, unique in our industry, facilitates employees to take on temporary assignments within different teams or business units for up to six months with the goal of fostering growth and innovation.
It’s been a challenge to design and launch a brand-new program that balances the needs of current managers to meet business objectives, rotation managers to meet their project goals, and our overall business objectives for growth and innovation. Creating processes, guidelines, systems (with our IT group), and supporting documentation like toolkits, communication strategies, and information sessions, gave me the opportunity to learn new skills that I can continue to build on.
Job Rotation provides our employees with an opportunity to step out of their comfort zone and try something new, to gain cross functional business knowledge, to learn new tools/technologies, and in some cases to find their passion! Ajay Srivastava, a Job Rotation participant, sums it up best when he said “simply, this is the best opportunity you can find without switching a job to learn new things and explore and expose what you can do in your life”.
Not only was this program effective for the company but turns out it was for me as well. My temporary role has become a full-time role in the Talent Management team, where I have worked to scale the program from the Americas only to all roles and all levels within the company worldwide! This year the Job Rotation Program had the highest participation rate yet and I'm excited to see what next year brings.
Programs like these are one of the reasons why Synopsys Inc has been named one of the Best Companies for Career Growth in 2024 by Comparably
