Mission Australia, one of Australia’s leading not-for-profit community services and employment organisations, will use Sonar6’s performance review and succession planning solution for 3,500 employees in 8 states and territories across the country.

Faced with the need to track the performance of staff and identify talented individuals across more than 450 diverse services, Mission Australia scoured the market for performance management options before hitting on Sonar6.

“We wanted to simplify the way we track the performance of our people across the organisation so we can gain a greater understanding of how well they’re performing in comparison with their peers and what skills and capabilities they have,” says Organisation Development Manager Andrea Muras.

“Sonar6 stood out against other providers because of its simplicity.

Their solution was one of the few on the market that gives us a bird’s eye view of our entire workforce so we can take a much more strategic approach.

It allows us to clearly identify the strengths in our organisation, find the stars amongst our staff and nurture them, as well as focus our development and support.

The information that Sonar6 gives us will also be critical to planning for the future needs of our workforce, and ultimately that enables us to provide better services to our clients – whether that’s someone who is looking for work or a person who is homeless and in need of accommodation.

We’ve been helping to transform the lives of individuals and families in need for 150 years and we want to have the best systems in place to make sure we can offer the highest quality services for next 150.”

Sonar6 Head of Experience Michael Carden says Mission Australia’s decision highlights the flexibility and accessibility of Sonar6’s performance management solution:

“Sonar6 provides a fully configurable solution, equally suited to NFP organisations as to the big corporates. We’ll be working closely with Mission Australia to deliver the solution they need for their future development.”

Mission Australia is Sonar6’s largest not-for-profit client, as well as its largest Australian customer.
