CAE and SuccessFinder win a Brandon Hall Group Excellence Award in Human Capital Management

Montreal – September 12, 2022. SuccessFinder, a leader in innovative human resources technology, has won a coveted Brandon Hall Group Award for Excellence. SuccessFinder has been granted a Bronze award for Best Advance in Leadership Development for an innovative program developed in collaboration with high-tech company CAE.

“We are thrilled to be recognized by the Brandon Hall Group as a leader in the Leadership Development space and want to thank CAE for their great partnership on this strategic large-scale program”, states Jean-Simon Leclerc, Vice-President, Client Solutions and Success at SuccessFinder.

The award was won for SuccessFinder’s collaboration with CAE and the implementation of their solution, SuccessFinder Profile Insights (SFPI) (leadership assessment measuring 26 competencies), into the organization’s leadership development. With over 1600 of CAE’s leaders involved, the SFPI program leveraged SuccessFinder data and insights to help CAE people leaders raise their self-awareness, helping them understand their strengths and areas of development, support their teams, and reach their business objectives.

This collaboration also included the creation of CAE’s Leadership Pillars using the Performance Predictor solution and delivery of organization-wide talent analytics to support leadership development and succession planning.

As Dan Sharkey, Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources at CAE explained: “CAE is committed to investing in and supporting our people leaders’ growth and development. We successfully deployed the SuccessFinder assessment to all our leaders globally to support their development and inspire them to reach their full potential. We recently introduced our custom Leadership Pillars, which are the guiding principles for CAE’s leaders, to empower them to excel every day.”

“Excellence Award winners distinguish themselves through their growing understanding that all the functions of HCM (human capital management) are integrated and must work together to move businesses forward,” said Brandon Hall Group Chief Operating Officer Rachel Cooke, leader of the HCM Excellence Awards program. “It is a pleasure to see more organizations collaborating across functions and getting more sophisticated and accomplished at delivering measurable benefit through ground-breaking HCM practices,” she said. “For example, it was inspiring to see how diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives are increasingly embedded into people and business strategies and cultures. We saw more alignment between HCM and business objectives than ever before.”

Entries were evaluated by a panel of veteran, independent senior industry experts, Brandon Hall Group analysts and executives based upon these criteria:

• fit with the need
• design of the program
• functionality
• innovation
• overall measurable benefits

“Our award winners demonstrated the vision, agility and innovation needed to excel in the unchartered hybrid work environment,” said Brandon Hall Group Chief Executive Officer Mike Cooke. “We added and revised awards categories to ensure that we not only validate best HCM practices but also solicit and recognize next practices that set a high bar for everyone.”
