Speaking to HR Katha, DXC Technology India VP & HR Head, Lokendra Sethi, shares some views on how the company is embracing the new normal. "Our talent quotient has increased since we have adopted a virtual-first model at DXC Technology."
Changing the norm to virtual working
DXC Technology decided to work remotely in March 2020, the firm has hired more than 30,000 employees virtually to date, and all hiring has been done virtually.
“We do not need to be in office to drive collaboration,” says Lokendra. Even during pre-pandemic days, people working from different offices and locations collaborated virtually at DXC.
This also means that now the company has no boundaries to attract talent. The best of talent can be hired from any part of the country without any geographical constraints.
Acknowledging that a major challenge to the culture shift to virtual was mindset, Lokendra explains: “We organised various sensitisation sessions to train our leaders to manage people in a remote environment and evaluate performance without really interacting with them physically in the office."
Additionally, the women’s leadership development programme at DXC Technology, SheLeads, is a 100 per cent virtual programme, and a major success. "Our ability to train and scale training programmes has really gone up since we moved to a virtual-first model,” explains Lokendra.
