Engagement
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
Why did TME need external help ?
Employees were exhausted
Answers lay in the spirit of Toyota Way, but confidence lost
Years of austerity led to low initiative levels… “play safe”
“PLAY SAFE” = NO SURPRISES NO INNOVATION

Challenge : how to appeal to all employees. Bring on the designers !
NMDAction
TME Organisation
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
The first iteration of many: Hitting the client’s culture
How we had to change course from the very beginning and how it led us to unveil the real needs of our client.
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
The real challenge? Change the way people are managed
«The automotive industry is changing and these changes question the way we manage people. Toyota Europe needs to become more agile, creative and adaptative to be able to fight in a highly competitive market. How do we achieve that?» Didier Leroy, Vice-President, Toyota Motor Corporation
From top to bottom and accross divisions, we heard the same thing
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
The even more real challenge? (Almost) no one wants to be the one who changes (first)
Where are the corporate rebels?
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
The way people are managed = Employee experience = Customer experience
«Customer experience is the brand. And customer experience follows employee experience.» Steve Cannon, CEO, Mercedes Benz USA
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
So, what happens to your brand when your employees’ experience looks like that ?..
Things have to change, don’t they ?..
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
And what if you would create new, completely different experiences for employees…
That’s where experience design kiks in (but we still don’t know about it)
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
Then capture what emerges…
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
…and leverage energy and ideas to start transforming the organization from within
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
…by designing processes that help collectively decide what to do and how to do it…
Give everybody a voice, facilitate creativity, quick consensus building and collective action-planning
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
…and then share it to gain support?
That’s what you may get when you ban powerpoint presentations and change the setting…
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
How to cross the «big, scary chasm» and reach out to the entire organization?
Everybody is talking about themselves and what great ideas and projects they have…
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
That’s where experience design officially kicks in
Serendipity ?..
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
How empathizing with users and co-design unleashed creativity
The turning point
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
The brief:• the branding must be so strong that it can survive complete freedom underneath• no glossy corporate touch and feel (it is an employee led initiative)
A brand new brand
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
Each group gets its own pictogram
Customizable
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
And the brand becomes the roadshow layout itself
Which works at all scales
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
And generates positive energy
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE

TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE

TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
Everything has been made to make everybody feel they shouldn’t miss it
Will they come?
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
Friday afternoon, it’s 5:30 pm and people are still showing up massively
Well… They came
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
End result : almost 90% attendance (our target was 40%)
What «customizable» means
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
And will we live up to the level of expectations we had unveiled?
Did we cross the chasm?
?
TOYOTA MOTOR EUROPE
How to help managers to adopt the new behaviors which will support the desired culture?
