— Engagement survey results 2020

Higher participation, an engagement level above the global benchmark, and positive feedback show we are moving in the right direction.

What does this mean for you? As of November 26, the Glint platform was opened for all eligible line managers. An el- igible line manager for this purpose is one who has at least five respondents. All teams with at least five respondents will be able to see their individual team results as well as the overall performance of ABB on a global level – as a comparison to the team results from 2019 and an external benchmark. Teams with fewer than five re- spondents will not receive their own team re- port but will be able to see the results of their extended team, one level up in the organiza- tion. Comments are only displayed for teams of 15+ employees and are anonymous. HR has organized trainings for eligible line managers to be able to navigate and un- derstand the reporting tool, interpret re- sults and set action plans. Line managers can find all necessary information about engagement survey including the training recordings and slides on Engagement Survey - Line Manager Resources sharepoint site.

We recently announced the full results of our second annual ABB Engagement Sur- vey to all employees and now are looking towards the next steps. First of all, thank you to all of you and your teams who par- ticipated, promoted the survey and gave your honest feedback. This year, we have both higher participation and engagement rates which show we are on the right track to a culture of open dialogue. The results show we have made progress, and importantly employees have felt sup- ported during this challenging year. Yet, there is still work to be done in improving cross-team collaboration, driving empow- erment and removing barriers to execu- tion. Colleagues also asked for more infor- mation about the company’s future and to continue our endeavors to strengthen our customer focus. The Executive Committee has decided to continue with ‘Company Direction’ as the priority while Business Areas and Divisions will define their priori- ties based on the findings from their own teams.
