Thread regarding Follett layoffs

Innovation and Urgency

Does the home office act with any urgency to solve problems? The innovation website has been active for many weeks now with lots of ideas to help the stores satisfy our customers. How many will be done before fall rush?

Is there a plan on what is selected and when it will be delivered?

The #1 innovation of vacation accrual doesn't count. That is a simple change undoing what was done to employees last year.

Nice try. Save it for FHEG. I was there when the winners were announced. Did you implement the listening lab in your imagination?

The winning entries were:

Listening Labs -- UI/UX team. It was implemented and a new interface for BryteWave and Destiny has been released/will be released for Fall.

Consolidated Order Management -- implemented and rolled out to customer service.

Follett Bucks -- implemented for both textbooks and library.

There was no winning entry for Destiny. Go back and look. The new UI for Destiny comes out this summer as you can't launch a new interface during the school year.

Maybe if you spent more time helping the cause and not complaining and/or spreading conspiracy theories, you'd be more successful here.

Go ahead and tell everyone that they implemented the changes to Destiny. FHEG won't know the difference but anyone who knows Destiny will. And we were told that the ideas were so wonderful they were going to implement more than the top choice.

Actually, FSS implemented the top three, even though they had originally only committed to implementing the top one. Nice try negative Nancy.

Who wants to submit ideas in a toxic environment? Good thought, premature

FSS had an innovation contest. They committed to implementing the top five. Guess what happened. Wait for it.... nothing.

1 innovation at Follett - give employees there vacation back. Priceless

They will probably do some of the things that cost nothing, but I would be shocked if they did anything that directly benefits employees.

This sounds like a valid question to throw some lipstick on and ask internally.
