Gecina: A Human-Centric and Innovative Digital Workplace
A single experience platform to centralize internal communication
Since 2018, Gecina has been transforming and renewing itself: a new headquarters that has been completely redesigned in terms of usage and quality of service, a new visual identity, the development of a relational brand “YouFirst”, etc. The old intranet, dating back to 2015, was no longer able to meet the current needs of transmission and access to information. Gecina, therefore, wanted to bring a fresh approach, but above all to make this platform a dynamic space, a single point of entry for all internal communications.
Key Objectives
- Centralizing communication. Offer a single source of information and avoid the need for numerous emails and newsletters from different departments within the group.
- Content strategy. To propose a real editorial approach with a coherent tone and style. Implement an ambitious editorial calendar to keep the platform active every day.
- Engage users. Offer employees the possibility to engage with content, but also offer them access to communities to encourage sharing and collaboration.
Gecina, Wedocom and LumApps
By early 2019, Gecina sought to replace their out-of-date intranet. To support their ongoing transformation, the project team wanted to offer a tool that was accessible to all employees ( both at headquarters and in the field), and from anywhere ( desktop and mobile), but above all, a social and collaborative Hub, that is fully integrated with Office 365. To achieve this they choose to work with LumApps.
Gecina was accompanied by the content agency Wedocom, to work on the editorial strategy, and to help them develop the use cases and integrations most appropriate for their platform.
Since then, the platform has been a real success and new developments have been planned, like integration of the media library, synchronization with the Workday HRIS tool, launch of an Employee Advocacy program to develop their employer brand and boost the adoption of communities. There are a lot of great projects ahead!
