International Committee of the Red Cross Adopts Jive Software to Drive Connections and Collaboration Worldwide

MUNICH, Nov. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Jive Software, a leading provider of employee experience solutions and part of the Aurea family of companies, today announced that the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) rolled out a Jive-powered enterprise community to deepen collaboration and connections in support of its mission to help victims of armed conflict and violence. At Aurea Experience 18 in Munich, ICRC's collaboration project manager, Ernesto Izquierdo, shared the organization's experiences and best practices surrounding employee engagement.

Based in Geneva, the ICRC is part of the largest humanitarian network in the world – the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. With over 18,000 employees, the ICRC operates in more than 80 countries worldwide. The organization recently added Jive's collaboration solution to its digital workplace ecosystem in order to better connect both internal and external stakeholders across regions, hierarchies and programs – such as initiatives to help missing people, address urban violence and promote international humanitarian law. By transforming the way its employees exchange and capture organizational knowledge, the ICRC is minimizing inefficient email threads, fostering collaboration and making people more productive.

"Being able to tap into our vast network of collective intelligence via easy-to-join, searchable digital brainstorms, discussions, Q&As and blogs is key to driving ICRC's mission," said Izquierdo. "With Jive, we can extend conversations so they continue long after face-to-face project meetings and turn ideas into practical, achievable objectives. This improves the effectiveness of our work and ultimately increases our capacity to help people caught up in armed conflict and violence."

Currently rolled out to 50 expert communities, Jive also supports key pillars of ICRC's new four-year institutional strategy by tapping into valuable perspectives from the field to foster an inclusive and diverse work environment, for example. Using Jive's mobile application, remote employees can effortlessly participate in strategic projects with the ICRC headquarters. Based on this initial success, the organization is taking an organic approach to continued adoption across its complex structure.

"World-class organizations like the ICRC have teams located in so many different countries and regions around the world that communication and corporate memory can easily be lost without the right digital workplace solutions in place," said Christian Stadlmann, senior vice president and general manager of Europe at Aurea Software. "We're honored to welcome ICRC to our community of digital thought leaders and to support its important work through a collaborative network. We are thrilled Ernesto is sharing his advice on taking Jive to the next level at Aurea Experience 18."
