Case Study: Stanley Black & Decker achieves global collaboration and increased productivity with Workplace from Meta

How Workplace became the top communication tool for the world’s #1 tool company

Stanley Black & Decker, the global industrial leader with 58,000 employees across more than 60 countries, needed a modern way to communicate, collaborate and drive a digital transformation across time zones and languages. To connect its distributed workforce and embed a new business strategy, the company selected Workplace from Meta for its intuitive interface and built‑in translation and newsfeed capabilities.

Workplace from Meta implemented the Workplace platform—launched company‑wide at a global town hall—and saw thousands of users join within 24 hours and tens of thousands of active users a year later. The platform’s translation tools, groups and integrations accelerated cross‑border collaboration, increased engagement and helped embed company purpose; Stanley Black & Decker reports greater connectivity, improved productivity and profitability, with Workplace groups even generating revenue.
