HR issues and challenges

Axa is a company undergoing constant change to meet ambitious growth targets. Managers are on the front line of these transformations, and face many challenges:

  • The need for constant adaptation in a constantly changing environment
  • Complex management of balances: individual vs. collective, performance vs. fulfillment, short-term vs. long-term
  • a need to reinforce the managerial posture: motivate and develop the team, give responsibility, provide feedback
  • A heavy workload in a demanding environment
  • A feeling of isolation and lack of connection with peers

The Simundia solution

AXA has set up an à la carte program, accessible to every managerial stratum. The program comprises 3 pillars: WeBecome, with 4 months' training on taking up a new position; WeShare, with monthly conferences; and WeGrow, where Simundia coaching is provided on demand. Simundia offers tailor-made support via an online platform with over 300 international coaches, enabling real responsiveness and flexibility. The system is accessible on demand, to empower managers.

Feedback from HR teams

What makes the difference today is a manager's ability to adapt, listen and understand what's going on in the organization. Coaching has become an essential response to this challenge.

Coachee feedback

Thank you for this initiative, which enabled me to feel supported, to become aware of my abilities and areas for improvement, and to learn techniques for progressing in my first managerial position.

The results

Strengthening managerial skills

Thanks to a personalized coaching offer, managers develop concrete tools and their ability to adapt, thus becoming better prepared to meet the challenges of transformation and support their teams in a constantly changing environment.

Manager well-being and commitment

Coaching offers managers a place to "breathe" and take a step back from their responsibilities. This support promotes a more serene posture, contributing to their personal and professional development.

24%
In 2020, women accounted for just 24% of senior managers and executives in France.

Stimulating organizational dynamics

Setting up the platform has created a collective leverage effect, encouraging managers to share best practices with each other, and as Sandrine Girszyn confides, "There's a snowball effect that's been created in the organization". This collective impact has helped to strengthen cohesion and commitment throughout the organization.
