Saba Customers Transform Employee Development Experience in EMEA

Bracknell, England (ots/PRNewswire) -

Talent Management leader helps customers meet changing employee
expectations and fuel business growth through modern talent solutions
and strong partnerships

Saba (https://www.saba.com/us/), a leading provider of
people-centric talent management solutions, today announced continued
customer success and partner momentum across the EMEA region.

Employers throughout the EMEA region are facing skills shortages
and lower employee engagement and retention, and are searching for
new ways to balance the changing expectations of employees and
company business needs. According to a recent CIPD Employee Outlook
report[1],more than a quarter of employees in Europe want more
opportunities to learn and grow, yet within the past year, a mere 41
per cent of employees received feedback and recognition on their
performance.

Saba customers throughout the region are successfully using Saba's
talent platform to transform the employee development experience,
increase employee engagement, and strategically align talent
programmes to their business goals.

Transforming the Employee Experience

"Using Saba is helping elevate performance and learning
conversations to become a constant dialogue between line managers and
their employees, rather than the previous annual development
conversation," said Jason Flynn, Global Learning Director, GfK. "This
is helping us build a more vibrant internal talent pipeline with more
vacancies eventually being filled by internal candidates. We are
developing our employees by improving their skills, thus enabling
better talent acquisition and retention."

Modernising People Development

"With Saba Cloud, Liebherr has strategically aligned our learning
objectives, moving from a high number of legacy learning management
solutions across our global organisation to one," said Michelle
Wagner, Head of Corporate HR & Learning Management Solutions,
Liebherr. "Not only does this give us better visibility into the
learning and training activities of all Liebherr companies and nearly
30,000 internal learners, but it allows us to meet the needs of our
extended enterprise and provide consistent training to more than
2,000 external users."

Supported by longstanding partner and reseller relationships with
leading organisations in Europe, Saba sees its channel partners as a
trusted extension the company's go to market strategy, and is
committed to ensuring a strong consistent customer experience through
partnerships.

"At Visma Comenius we strive to give our customers the best and
latest in Talent Management software and as a trusted Saba partner we
can satisfy our customers needs with a modern, cutting edge solution.
Saba is a fantastic partner who are at the forefront of the industry
because they listen to and understands the market," said Henrik

satisfied customers for more than 15 years now. We have been in a
very close partnership with Saba since 2002, yet we feel that this is
just the beginning and we look forward for many more years to come."

"As expectations of employees in in EMEA continue to change, our
customers understand that transforming the talent experience can
improve talent acquisition, engagement, and retention, and we're
proud of and inspired by their success," said Christian Foerg,
General Manager of Saba in EMEA. "We're thrilled to count some of the
most innovative organisations in EMEA as Saba customers, including
GfK, Liebherr, Virgin Atlantic, Fujitsu EMEA, Siemens Healthineers,
