SOCIETE GENERALE 2014-2015 I 33 DIGITAL FOR ALL IS A PROGRAMME THAT ALLOWS EACH EMPLOYEE TO DEVELOP NEW WAYS OF WORKING AND SERVING THEIR CLIENTS BETTER. A REVOLUTION IN USAGE The change will not be limited to software: a professional touchscreen tablet will be provided to 70,000 of the Group’s employees. Unlike most large companies, which focus their efforts on managers and commercial representatives, Societe Generale has opted to give these tools to its employees en masse, at all levels of the company. An “SG Store”, offering applications for download similar to the Apple Store, was launched with an initial range in 2015 before being progressively enhanced with everyone’s creative input. The most recent and critical aspect of this unprecedented programme concerns the development of infrastructure and networks anticipating future changes to the bank’s IT systems. This is carried out without any impact on data security, as the bank’s role as a trusted partner is one of its major competitive advantages among digital natives. Societe Generale’s conviction is that achieving a critical mass of users will encourage a revolution in working habits and standards. But Digital for All is not just about putting the tools into employees’ hands: an internal think tank has been created to consider ways to support this transformation and stimulate the development of a digital culture throughout the Group. SOCIETE GENERALE EMPLOYEES MUST HAVE THE SAME DIGITAL EXPERIENCES AS THEIR CLIENTS OF INTERACTIONS WITH CLIENTS TAKE PLACE THROUGH DIGITAL PLATFORMS OF THE GROUP’S EMPLOYEES WILL RECEIVE A PROFESSIONAL TOUCHSCREEN TABLET
