Case Study: Macquarie enhances employee connectivity and accelerates delivery velocity with Slack

How Macquarie’s Banking and Financial Services Group enhanced employee connectivity and accelerated delivery velocity

Macquarie’s Banking and Financial Services Group needed a faster, more connected way to collaborate internally, reduce reliance on email, and consolidate multiple communication and developer tools. The team chose Slack to support a six-month rollout aimed at improving employee experience and speeding up internal communication across teams and projects.

Using Slack, Macquarie BFS created dedicated project channels, integrated JIRA and other developer tools, and adopted features like Slack Canvas and Huddles to streamline knowledge sharing and real-time collaboration. According to Slack, the rollout helped thousands of users quickly embrace the platform, with thousands of canvases created in the first 48 hours, while enabling engineers, designers, and stakeholders to work together more efficiently and accelerate delivery velocity.
