How Teradata Built EVERFI Into Their Harassment Prevention Strategy

Reach a Diverse, Global Workforce “Our biggest challenge in training is developing course content that is appropriate for a global audience. We’re really trying to reach everybody with content that is appropriate in different countries and we want everybody aligned on the same conduct standards.”
Empower Employees to Be Proactive “It’s more about being respectful and professional and arming employees with tools to help them know how to identify and respond to misconduct, and do a self-assessment of their own decisions and conduct. We’re really trying to put a message of respect and empowerment out to our employees.”
Activate Bystanders “There are more subtle things to be talked about now, and in a modern way, using the vernacular that resonates with younger generations of employees.” Such as employees’ roles as active bystanders, unconscious or implied bias, and focusing on a positive and supportive culture.
Drive Results Through Data “The first year will be focused on learning from the rollout. It’s an iterative approach that will help Teradata identify areas of potential improvement as well as best practices.” EVERFI Workplace Insights seamlessly integrates in-course surveys to help inform post-training initiatives and opportunities.

“I’m really excited about the platform that we have in the ethics and compliance department to help move the dial on the culture, help influence the discussion and behavior around culture, and how people feel at the workplace.”
