Case Study: YouGov achieves increased employee engagement and deeper workforce insight with Cornerstone OnDemand

Increasing employee engagement and gaining more workforce insight

YouGov, a global market research and consulting firm with offices across the UK, US, Europe and the Middle East, faced a mismatch between its technology-forward services and paper-based HR processes. With a small HR team of seven, the company couldn’t track objectives, identify top performers, or gain consistent workforce insight across sites and needed a single, easy-to-use performance management system.

YouGov implemented Cornerstone’s cloud-based performance solution (Growth Edition) in six weeks, standardizing reviews, integrated self-assessments and 360 feedback, and using a nine-box “helicopter view” for talent analytics. The result was nearly 100% adoption, increased employee engagement, faster access to HR data anywhere, clearer insight into performance and succession, and a shift from administrative tasks to more strategic HR work.
