Talentmanagement at PROMATIS – The focus on people

Talentmanagement at PROMATIS – The focus on people

Our working world is constantly changing and with it the requirements of employees. Individual talent management is therefore becoming increasingly important. But how does PROMATIS succeed in implementing such talent management?

In our 3-stage application process – which initially consists of an initial phone conversation with the HCM department, an interview with the respective specialist department and a personal meeting on site – the applicant gets to know the company PROMATIS with its diverse opportunities, as well as a detailed description of the tasks. But we also identify the strengths and interests of the applicant and can then integrate his or her skills and practical experience into the job even better.

In order to create a pleasant working atmosphere from the very first day, a positive impression and a structured initial training are very important to us. Even before their first day at work, new employees receive sufficient information about their first days and weeks. You will find out in advance who your mentor and supervisor is, whether you will start in the PROMATIS office or directly with the customer in the project. The dress code recommendation is also addressed in the welcome email. Onboarding ends on the first working day with a tour of the facilities. Here, the new employees get to know all their colleagues and gain their first insights into the corporate culture. Also the walk to the coffee machine in the PROMATIS lounge as well as information on how to organize the lunch break should not be missed.

Right at the start, each “newcomer” is assigned a mentor who introduces him or her to the new tasks and is available to answer any questions, both technical and about company customs. Integration into the team is an important factor for successful onboarding, in addition to the technical training.

The further training of employees is a central topic at PROMATIS, because the investment through qualification and certification represents added value for both the employee and the company. The central place for this can be found in the PROMATIS intranet “Inside”. In our Learning Center, supply and demand meet one another regarding the key resource of education. Employees can draw valuable potential for their individual further development from this source. For example, regular in-house training courses are held, the so-called “Learning Factory”, in which employees share their know-how. In addition, further internal and external training and certification opportunities are offered around the PROMATIS procedure model and external Oracle certification. A collection of various materials for self-study is available to employees at any time.

In addition to traditional courses, in-company training also includes attendance at external seminars, day fairs and conferences. In addition, further training opportunities can also be individually coordinated with employees in conjunction with various colleges and universities. Professional qualifications and further training are important prerequisites for successful personnel and thus corporate development.

Individual development opportunities, target agreements and successes in projects are discussed in semi-annual meetings with the supervisor. By creating a skills profile in our specially developed Workforce Center, each employee can view and further develop their personal development. The Workforce Center lists information about projects and individual skills of the employees. PROMATIS supports its employees individually with defined career paths.

With the “Compatibility Progress Index”, family friendliness becomes a trademark!

The “Compatibility Progress Index” (Fortschrittsindex Vereinbarkeit) is part of the “Success Factor Family” (Erfolgsfaktor Familie) corporate program, by which the German Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth, in cooperation with business associations and trade unions, promotes a family-friendly working environment. The aim is to establish family friendliness as a trademark of the German economy. The index was developed in cooperation with the Association of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce (Deutscher Industrie- und Handelskammertag, DIHK) and the Federal Association of Human Resources Managers (Bundesverband der Personalmanager, BPM) for use in business practice. PROMATIS – specialist for intelligent business processes and Oracle digitization solutions – participates in the ongoing measurement of family-friendly corporate culture and decisively supports the compatibility of work and family.

Digitization, securing skilled workers, dynamic markets – only future-oriented companies can successfully meet these challenges on a daily basis. What is needed is a corporate culture that supports flexibility and personal responsibility, and in which all employees can unfold their motivation to perform. An important element of this type of corporate culture lies in the compatibility of professional and family responsibilities. This is particularly true in current times, as the reconciliation of work and family has taken on a whole new dimension, especially in the wake of the Corona crisis. Dividing lines between work and family are not just dissolving in the organization of childcare and professional tasks. New impressions are also developing in the individual perception of working time and free time, of exertion and relaxation. Likewise, the question of whether and how working parents and their children relax and recharge their batteries is a task of reconciliation.

The “Compatibility Progress Index” supports employers in measuring, developing and exposing their family-friendly measures. The index consists of two parts: With guidelines, the company commits to an innovative and family-oriented corporate culture. In the second step, companies can measure their culture on the basis of twelve key indicators and compare themselves with the competition.

Here, PROMATIS achieved very good results and met all requirements with flying colors. The globally active software and consulting company with headquarters in Ettlingen – in the heart of TechnologyRegion Karlsruhe – offers its employees not only trust-based working hours, attractive part-time models and home office workplaces, but also a modern working environment that meets both current and future employee needs. Because only a family-friendly corporate culture that is constantly optimized and anchored in a sustainable and binding manner stands for a real success factor.
