Accent HR: Bridging Cultural Gaps in the Workplace

Posted by Amanda Del Signore on Tue, Oct 22, 2024 @ 04:13 PM

AccentHR Founder A BevanFounded by Audrey Bevan, Stevie-winner Accent HR emerged from a keen observation of the limitations within conventional HR practices, which often reflect an Anglo-Saxon cultural bias. Recognizing that standardized HR approaches frequently do not resonate with diverse worldviews, Bevan set out to create a solution that embraces cultural differences rather than sidelining them.

Since its launch in 2022, Accent HR has positively impacted over 40,000 workers across the Asia-Pacific region. The organization acts as a trusted advisor for businesses struggling with cross-cultural communication. By helping clients turn multiculturalism into a strength, Accent HR aims to enhance engagement, lower attrition rates, and reduce workplace conflicts.

A Focus on Cultural Sensitivity
At the core of Accent HR’s philosophy is the understanding that effective communication must be culturally sensitive. The organization has shifted corporate communication strategies to align with the cultural norms of the communities it serves. A notable example includes a project with an Australian Indigenous organization, where Accent HR redesigned communication practices to prioritize oral traditions over written documents. This approach emphasized direct interactions, such as face-to-face meetings and phone calls, thereby strengthening connections between employees and the organization. 

The success of this initiative showcases how culturally adaptable communication can significantly improve workplace interactions and foster growth.
accentHR logo
Innovations in HR and Employee Development
Accent HR is redefining the HR and employee development landscape by addressing the often-overlooked cultural challenges in the workplace. Instead of merely celebrating diversity, the organization focuses on practical strategies to engage employees from various backgrounds.

Recruitment: Recognizing that candidates from different cultures may express their experiences differently, Accent HR assists organizations in accurately interpreting these responses, considering the cultural context.

Leadership: The organization educates HR teams and managers on the nuances of cross-cultural behaviors. For instance, avoiding eye contact may be a cultural norm, and understanding these differences can lead to more effective management practices.

Leave Entitlements: Accent HR promotes an understanding of cultural obligations, such as traditional ceremonies and family commitments, ensuring that diverse employees feel recognized and valued.

Through these initiatives, Accent HR not only enhances workplace harmony but also fosters a culture where every employee's background is respected and celebrated. Clients report improved team performance and satisfaction, leading to longer retention rates and a deeper connection to their leadership teams.

Accent HR aims to revolutionize the field of HR by turning traditional practices on their head. By reimagining the approach to cultural diversity in the workplace, the organization positions itself as a leader in fostering inclusive environments where every cultural background is not just acknowledged but cherished.

As businesses navigate the complexities of a global workforce, Accent HR's innovative strategies serve as a valuable resource for achieving true cultural integration and enhanced organizational performance.

Accent HR won a Bronze Stevie® Award for Excellence in Innovation in Business Product & Service Industries - Up to 20 Employees in the 2024 Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards.

From Groceries to Gadgets: How Chum's AI-Driven Shopping Tools Find the Best Deals

Posted by Amanda Del Signore on Tue, Oct 01, 2024 @ 11:52 AM

Chum LogoStevie-winner Chum is a Dubai-based price comparison app designed to help users save money and time by allowing them to compare prices across various stores for products ranging from groceries to tech gadgets.

By aggregating data from major retailers, Chum helps users find the best deals without the need to visit multiple websites. The app is particularly helpful for frequent purchases, like groceries, where it shows price comparisons across supermarkets, allowing users to select the cheapest options.

Additionally, Chum extends its service to travel bookings, offering comparisons for flights, hotels, and car rentals, making it a versatile tool for budget-conscious consumers. Its user-friendly interface enables shoppers to quickly identify price drops, with some products seeing discounts as high as 60% to 70% from retailers like Carrefour, Amazon, and Noon.

Chum also offers valuable features tailored to enhance user experience beyond simple price comparison. For instance, the app allows users to set price alerts for specific products, so they are notified when prices drop, making it easier to snag the best deals.

The ability to create and save wish lists ensures that users can revisit and purchase desired items at their convenience, without having to search for them again. Chum also provides cart comparison across supermarkets, helping users ensure they are getting the best deals on their grocery orders from various retailers.

What sets Chum apart from its competitors is the integration of multiple verticals, combining various categories like electronics, groceries, fashion, and even travel services (flights and hotels) within a single platform.

chum image
The app stands out in the UAE market as it utilizes AI-driven tools to compare millions of products, which gives it a significant edge in ensuring accurate and up-to-date price listings. This comprehensive approach, combined with user-friendly features like deal alerts and cart comparisons, offers customers a one-stop solution for efficient and budget-conscious shopping. 

Since winning a Stevie, they are now launching a Cashback feature, which will help customers get cashback on Chum for any shopping they do. This fuels their vision of being the first touchpoint in the region—no matter where a customer shops from, they want them to first come to Chum to see the best prices and deals and initiate cashback before buying the product they want from the respective stores.

Chum won two Gold Stevie Awards for Most Innovative Startup of the Year - Consumer Service Industries, and the Award for Innovation in Shopping or E-commerce Apps in the 2024 Middle East & North Africa Stevie® Awards.
