THE PARTNERS
The Octave Program is an original idea by Danone, with the support of ENGIE, Orange, Société Générale, L’Oréal and any company affected by the issue and open to the approach.
The partners of the Octave Program all share the same intention of using each generation’s maximum potential in order to promote varied and broad-reaching collective intelligence. Each partner company sends 10, 20 or 30 participants, building up a ready-made network of people who are able to support and to bring change once they return to the company.
The Octave Program offers plenty of benefits to the companies :
- Companies that perform better, that plan ahead and anticipate the necessary companies adaptations.
- An organizational and human impact: more committed or re-motivated people who are willing to take action, transgenerational networks (e-mentoring and reverse mentoring), better understanding of the digital revolution and how it can be applied , optimizing the ability to work together
- Be recognized externally and internally as a responsible, attractive company that stands out from the rest
- Cross-pollinate the generations, promote varied and diverse collective intelligence
