In line with the vision of Prime Minister of Pakistan’s new initiative of Digital Pakistan, WB by Hemani has brought in a technology from a USA based company, Jolokia, thus becoming being the first retail industry to digitalize its HR and Training process. A contract-signing ceremony at their office took place here earlier today, attended by select members of the media.
WB by Hemani, established in 2017 with over 30 outlets all across Pakistan, was the first company to bring a natural and organic experience to Pakistan. This time, through the partnership with Jolokia, WB by Hemani will again be the first company in Pakistan to manage HR and do online training with product information along with appraisal, increment and product quizzes all in one software called Inferno LXP. Inferno LXP is already been used by various MNCs in USA.
Inferno LXP is a brand-new edition to this part of the world and will be instrumental in making WB by Hemani have a full-featured, reliable SaaS platform that allows instructors to create engaging video learning experiences. Ultimately this technology will add value to the learning and development departments of corporate organizations regardless of whether a learning management system is available there or not.
Having everything presented in Video is the new norm; short and engaging videos are undoubtedly more effective, digestible and helps an organization save paper. SMEs and other employees provide a wealth of resources, so while automation is the new way forward, human connection is important too. LXPs enable the best of both worlds where access to learning in video format can be made watchable at any time and at any place – with valuable content being just a few clicks away. Pete Mastin, CEO of Jolokia (based in USA) said, “We are very excited to partner with WB by Hemani in this region to expand the reach of our business development efforts.
The fact that this time round there will be automated caption creation and translations into Urdu is the icing on the cake”. By adding this kind of technology to their current business model, WB by Hemani is headed in the right direction. Not only are they leading the retail industry, but also tapping on the Digital Pakistan initiative to the nation’s benefit, by being the first to embark on video learning experience platforms.
