Willis Towers Watson partnered with Tandem HR Solutions to optimize real-time feedback cultures in global organizations. 

The global advisory firm will apply its change management and employee engagement expertise to Tandem HR Solutions’ mobile phone-based technology platform, which enables real-time feedback for both employees and managers.

The new global relationship means that clients of both organizations can be supported in any transition away from traditional annual performance feedback approaches to continuous ‘always on’ feedback.

Angel Hoover, head of talent for Western Europe at Willis Towers Watson, said: “Many organizations are moving away from traditional performance management, enabling agile systems that focus on continuous, real-time feedback using the same kinds of tools we use to manage everything else in our lives.”  

“The Tandem solution offers people the chance to understand their performance in a more meaningful and dynamic way. That self-awareness helps them develop to improve the way they work and the outcomes they generate. Through insightful analytics, an organization can see what its values and strengths are. We think there is huge market potential in combining this cutting-edge technology with our global expertise in driving organizational change and creating an extraordinary employee experience,” Hoover adds.

Aisling Teillard, CEO and co-founder at Tandem HR Solutions, said: “This new relationship enables us to bring real synergies for our clients, by combining Willis Towers Watson’s ability to enable behavioral change with Tandem’s best-in-class technology.”

“With Willis Towers Watson’s unparalleled expertise in supporting global change initiatives, and Tandem’s capabilities to bring its award-winning feedback and coaching technology, the possibilities for us and our clients are unrivaled,” Teillard adds.
