Case Study: Fossil Group achieves 100% strategic goal completion and improved alignment with Quantum Workplace

Fossil Group Making Time for Performance With a Strategic Platform That Wins

Fossil Group, a global design, marketing and distribution company best known for its watches and lifestyle accessories, faced a major performance-management challenge across its ~15,000 employees: a paper-based process that was time-consuming, inconsistent, produced many misaligned or non-impactful goals, and left managers without the tools to coach effective performance conversations.

By pairing a refreshed performance strategy with Quantum Workplace’s end-to-end software, Fossil introduced recognition, guided manager–employee conversations, frequent strategic touchpoints, and system integrations to drive alignment. The result: 100% of strategic goals achieved for two consecutive years, a forecasted 10% sales growth from Q1 to Q4, and a 42% reduction in goals per employee thanks to clearer prioritization and more efficient performance management.
