Halogen Honors Customers at User Conference

by DONNA RONAYNE | Sep 23rd, 2008 | Halogen News |

At last week’s Halogen User Conference, we honored three of our customers – CentraState Health System, L-3 Communications Interstate Electronics Corporation and The Zoological Society of San Diego – with awards for their success in talent management programs.

We are announcing the winners today in a press release, and I wanted to share just a little bit about each of these organizations and why they were selected as this year’s winners.

CentraState Health System received the Bright Bottom Line Award for its quantitative assessment of results with employee performance and talent management. The New Jersey-based healthcare organization generated a time savings of 575 hours per year for managers alone and considerable time savings for HR with its implementation of Halogen eAppraisal™ Healthcare. Ultimately this enables CentraState’s managers to focus on coaching employees and delivering outstanding patient care.

L-3 Communications Interstate Electronics Corporation was awarded the Dazzling Implementation Award for its outstanding implementation leveraging Halogen’s flexible deployment models. While going through the implementation process, the company had to switch their technical back-end from the Halogen hosted/on-demand model and bring the Halogen system in-house onto their premises. While their IT team was initially concerned about the amount of work it might cause for them, the flexibility of the Halogen offering made it easy to quickly change deployment models in such a short timeframe and implement the project on time.

The Zoological Society of San Diego received the Brilliant Corporate Culture Award for driving cultural change and development within its organization. The Zoological Society of San Diego used Halogen eAppraisal to help introduce goals and competencies into an organization that had not previously defined them, to instill employee accountability, improve employee motivation and morale, and ultimately transform the organization to one with a culture focused on high-performance.

Please join me in congratulating each of these organizations on their accomplishments and if you are a Halogen customer, I’d encourage you to apply for one of these awards next spring!
