Infosys was ranked among the top
50 most respected companies in
the world according to Global Reputation Pulse 2009, the
annual report release by the Reputation Institute. According to the recent
survey of Indian consumers, conducted by the Reputation Institute,
Infosys received a global reputation pulse rating of
77.45, and was ranked 39th on a list of the largest companies
in India. The IT giant's reputation score is above the average rating of all
organizations rated by costumers in 32 countries. Infosys in placed as one
of the best elite group made up of the 200 best-graded companies in
the world.
At a time when organizations are debating the significance of
cultural and behavioral interventions on human resources, Infosys, a
consulting and software services organization, includes its human resources on its
balance sheet to affirm their asset value. As the knowledge-intensive
company, Infosys recognizes the value of its human assets in maintaining and
building enhanced culture and values for increasing its aggressive position
among the rivals. At the same time,
Infosys realizes that these assets can easily `walk away', as competitors in
India and abroad want IT talent. Subsequently, the challenge facing
Infosys is: "How can it build an effective organization through attracting,
retaining and developing its human assets in a highly competitive and
dynamic environment." This question is answered through extensive
literature review and interview with the Infosys employees. |
