Top BPO Convergys Philippines Celebrates 15th Anniversary
Convergys
Philippines, one of the largest and leading BPO companies in the country,
celebrates its 15th anniversary wiith the theme “Made By YOU – Celebrating Our
Stories, Embracing New Possibilities.”
Convergys
is known for putting its people front and center and with the celebration of
its 15 years its focus on people remain true since Convergys Philippines opened
its first contact center back in 2003, creating jobs and careers for talented
Filipinos with its nationwide expansion, and helping build its communities and
the country’s economy in the process. This same focus has enabled a number of breakthroughs
such as nationwide operations from North Luzon to Mindanao, being first to be
inducted into the ICT Hall of Fame as Best Company and Best Employer, first BPO
in the world to gain the global standard on workplace gender equality, and
sustaining its position as the country’s largest private employer. More than
anything, this focus on people is perhaps the greatest quality the company has
tried to sustain for the past 15 years – a place where employees know that they
truly matter.
Now,
15 years of growth and 55,000 employees later, the company celebrated this
milestone in the BIGGEST and BEST way, with another breakthrough: the
FIRST-EVER concert headlining two of the country’s greatest singers, Sarah
Geronimo and Regine Velasquez.
Held
last August 13 at the Araneta Coliseum, the concert was the first time the two
musical artists starred together, and it was Convergys that successfully pulled
off this casting coup.
Long-time
followers of both the country’s Popstar Royalty and Asia’s Songbird can no
doubt appreciate that the attributes shared by the two singers in their rise to
fame seem to parallel the journey of Convergys and its people: talent,
determination, hard work and dedication to excellence. The company’s workforce
are the very reason that Convergys was able to maintain its status as an
industry leader for a decade and a half. In that span of time, men and women
across the country, with stories similar to Regine’s or Sarah’s realized their
dreams through hard work and commitment, were able to provide for their loved
ones, and able to contribute to the company’s legacy.
As
Regine and Sarah headlined the historic concert for Convergys’ 15th anniversary
together, the message was also clear: Convergys is breaking new ground and
embracing new possibilities. Convergys’ success in having Regine and Sarah
together in a single, momentous event also signaled a welcoming of a new
chapter in its journey.
It
seems fitting then, that on Regine’s 30th and Sarah’s 15th respective
anniversaries in the entertainment industry, they joined forces for a perfect
night of celebration in honor of Convergys’ employees and excitement for the
company’s future. The concert title stayed true to theme: “Convergys at 15:
Made By YOU – Celebrating Our Stories, Embracing New Possibilities.”
With
its track record, Convergys has every right to look to its future with both
satisfaction and optimism – with the assurance that its team is moving forward
every step of the way, together.
“From
the very beginning, our people, and the commitment we have to their growth and
to the country, have been the backbone of our company,” says Convergys
President for Asia-Pacific Ivic Mueco. “This celebration is to show our
employees the gratitude and appreciation they so deserve, and to recognize the
stories they made that brought us the industry leadership position we have
today. In holding this concert – itself also a first – we are not only
celebrating a milestone, we are also showing that the possibilities remain
endless. Together, we are excited to become even stronger and better as we
continue the journey forward,” she closes.
