Glenmark, a global pharmaceutical company, realized this first-hand when their traditional, manual approach to conducting succession planning within the team became increasingly complex and resource-heavy.
With hundreds of employees to assess at the junior levels, the process was no longer scalable. Glenmark partnered with Jombay to transition from these manual assessments to a seamless, tech-enabled solution.
Here are some details of the development center we ran to bring Glenmark’s succession planning process into the new age >
> Mapped to Glenmark’s core competencies for managerial success: The assessments were designed around Drive Results, Stakeholder Orientation, People Orientation, Change Agility, and Business Acumen.
> Added tech and AI to the Development Centre experience: We conducted a host of virtual assessments that included the 27 Forte Personality Assessment, a business case study, a Simulation, and a Recorded Interview.
> Tied in an efficient, human centric approach: Glenmark’s internal assessors were trained to conduct BEIs and share scores, which were combined with virtual assessment results to create comprehensive, unified reports for each participant.
The result?
A scalable, efficient, and sustainable evaluation process that has replaced manual complexity with a streamlined, digital-first experience - helping Glenmark make more confident, data-backed succession planning decisions.
