Securing successful strategic change

THE CHALLENGE

Mondelēz International was rolling out Ping MFA (a cloud-based, multi-factor authentication tool) to ensure cyber protection and compliance with GDPR and other regulations. They asked us to help encourage colleagues to make the change.

 

Previously, they’d used a different authentication app, but uptake had been incredibly low. This campaign needed to reset employees’ concerns about multifactor authentication and differentiate Ping MFA.

FRESH APPROACH

We seconded a Fresh consultant to work alongside Mondelēz International’s change and internal comms team. She created and delivered a global strategy to:

  • Implement a phased communication plan, leading from awareness to behaviour change.
  • Use a multilingual, omni-channel approach to tailor country and team-specific messaging and activities.
  • Engage and empower stakeholders and employee influencers.
  • Monitor results and adapt local activities.
  • Prepare reports and ongoing advice for senior leaders.
OUTCOMES

Mondelēz International was delighted with the uptake of Ping MFA. Our omni-channel campaign reached, engaged and offered training for its 80,000-strong global employee base, and engagement metrics at launch were:

  • Week one – 10,936 people set up.
  • Month one – 23,371 people set up
  • Total device setups in month one – 42,929

These figures are a huge contrast with the engagement and interaction metrics for the previous authenticator app used.

USER FEEDBACK
“The introduction of Ping MFA is of utmost importance to MDLZ – to ensure the security of our data environment and our employees. We knew it would be a complex programme, needing careful strategic and tactical management.”
“Our partnership with Fresh Communication, and specifically the dedicated attention of Lorna Webley, our lead IC consultant from Fresh, gave us complete confidence that our goals would be met.
