Explorance and Partner PETRONAS Wins Two 2020 Brandon Hall Group Awards for Leadership Development Measurement & Learning Measurement

Montreal – August 26, 2020 – Explorance, a leader in journey analytics solutions, along with partner PETRONAS, won two Brandon Hall Group awards. They won Gold in leadership development measurement and a Silver award in learning evaluation. PETRONAS and Explorance jointly applied to the Brandon Hall Group award, and the winners were announced on August 20, 2020.

To adapt to the volatile oil and gas market, PETRONAS recognized that talent is a significant driver of business growth and invests in leadership development and a multifaceted learning strategy for 50,000 employees. While delivering these programs, PETRONAS partnered with Explorance to implement a robust learning evaluation plan using Metrics That Matter that demonstrates program effectiveness, the value and impact of training to meet dynamic business challenges, and the role of training in successfully executing a number of growth strategies.

“It is great to witness firsthand how PETRONAS’ commitment to leadership development and overall learning effectiveness contributed to meeting business challenges and supported key growth strategies,” stated Samer Saab, CEO of Explorance. “We are proud of our association with PETRONAS, through their leverage of Metrics That Matter (MTM) learning effectiveness solution, in the making of this inspiring story of success.” 

“Organizations around the world highly value Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards — so much so that we received a record number of applications in the middle of a global pandemic,” said Rachel Cooke, Brandon Hall Group COO, and leader of the HCM Excellence Awards Program. “The awards provide valuable recognition and validation of best practices in all areas of HCM at a time when they have never been more important to both employers and employees.”

Award entries were evaluated by a panel of veteran, independent senior industry experts, Brandon Hall Group analysts, and executives based upon the following criteria: fit the need, design of the program, functionality, innovation and overall measurable benefits.

Excellence Awards winners will be honored at Brandon Hall Group’s HCM Excellence Conference, January 26-28, 2021, at the Hilton West Palm Beach, Florida.

“The Excellence Awards serve the critical function of reinforcing the essential business benefit of creating great experiences for candidates and employees,” Brandon Hall Group CEO Mike Cooke said. “All award winners must demonstrate that their HCM programs drive bottom-line business results. That’s what sets our awards program apart from all others.”
