IRVINE, Calif. – Sept. 5, 2023 -- Allied Universal®, the world’s leading global security and facility services company, has been recognized with two prestigious Human Capital Management Excellence Awards from Brandon Hall Group – a gold award in the category of Best Development Program for Frontline Leaders and a gold award in the category of Best Use of Blended Learning.
The 2023 Brandon Hall Group Human Capital Management Excellence Awards™ were earned by Allied Universal’s training program for frontline leaders. The week-long management onboarding course provides newly assigned/promoted account owners and operators with essential practices, tools and guidance needed for success. The program follows a blended learning approach integrating live instruction with virtual learning modules.
“Training and development are extremely important to our organization. We want to help our team members achieve long-term growth and rewarding careers in the thriving and essential security industry,” said Steve Jones, global chairman and CEO of Allied Universal.
The awards recognize best practices for initiatives in learning and development; talent management; leadership development; talent acquisition; human resources; sales performance; diversity, equity and inclusion; and the future of work.
“The Allied Universal Frontline Leader Training Program reflects our dedication to shaping the future of our workforce through learning, development and innovation,” said Don Tefft, Allied Universal’s chief human resources officer. “The program’s central themes of employee engagement, account administration and schedule/workforce management underscore the company’s commitment to excellence.”
Entries were evaluated by a panel of veteran, independent senior industry experts, Brandon Hall Group analysts and executives based on these criteria:
- Alignment to their business need and environment
- Program design, functionality and delivery
- Adoption, integration, user experience, innovation and creativity
- Overall effectiveness, impact, and measurable benefits
"Excellence Award winners are shown to be organizations that truly value their employees and invest in them through their human capital management programs (HCM). These HCM programs have been validated as best in class for business value and the impact on the employees themselves," said Brandon Hall Group Chief Operating Officer Rachel Cooke, HCM Excellence Awards program leader.
Excellence Award winners will be honored at Brandon Hall Group's HCM Excellence Conference in February 2024.
