On October 8, 2024, at ODILO we joined over 3,000 HR professionals and industry leaders at HR Indaba 2024, Africa’s largest HR conference, hosted at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Organized by CHRO South Africa, the event gathered a vibrant community from some of the continent’s most influential companies, including Old Mutual, Sanlam, Discovery, and Standard Bank. The stage was set for in-depth conversations, powerful sessions, and a showcase of cutting-edge innovations shaping the future of learning and development (L&D) across Africa.
Our stand: The hub of connection and collaboration
We made our impactful debut at HR Indaba 2024, connecting with over 160 HR leaders and professionals at our stand. As Africa’s HR landscape embraces a more diverse and connected workforce, our team welcomed an enthusiastic community eager to explore solutions that personalize learning and drive organizational engagement. This event provided an excellent opportunity to share our approach to empowering L&D departments across various industries, catering to the evolving needs of African companies.
Session Spotlight: “Pathways to Success, The Art of Personalized Learning”
Our speaking session, Pathways to Success: The Art of Personalized Learning, was a centerpiece of our participation. Led by Isaac Chafera, Regional Director for Africa at ODIO, and Ivan Lopez, VP of Corporate Global Sales at ODILO, the session welcomed registered attendees from over 25 major organizations with a shared passion for innovation in corporate learning.
MTN’s case story, an authentic testimonial of transformation
One of the most memorable moments was an impromptu testimonial from Juleiga Hoosain, a member of MTN’s Centre of Excellence, who shared her first-hand experiences with ODILO’s solutions. Juleiga opened up about MTN’s rigorous RFP process, during which they evaluated leading L&D providers, ultimately choosing ODILO for its clear ability to meet and exceed MTN’s needs. Her powerful words underscored the value ODILO has added to MTN’s learning ecosystem:
- Seamless Integration: ODILO’s Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality helped MTN eliminate persistent support issues, providing a streamlined experience that significantly improved user engagement and satisfaction.
- Dedicated Consultancy and Support: With ODILO’s dedicated consultant and technical support desk, MTN’s internal teams experienced smoother, faster troubleshooting, allowing them to focus on strategic goals.
- Localized, Multi-Language Learning: ODILO’s platform supports English, French, and Portuguese, adapting to user preferences to make learning accessible to MTN’s diverse workforce.
Juleiga’s testimonial resonated strongly with HR and L&D professionals in attendance, offering an authentic testimonial of the transformative potential of personalized, tech-driven learning solutions.
