Doing The Right Things Well
Episode 02: Featuring EPAM
This episode features EPAM’s ‘Chief Learning Scientist’, an organizational psychologist at the intersection of skills-based employee enablement and technology-driven business transformation.
EPAM Systems, Inc. is an American company that specializes in software engineering services, digital platform engineering, and digital product design, operating out of Newtown, Pennsylvania.
In our second episode of “Doing The Right Things Well,” we speak with Dr. Sandra Loughlin, EPAM’s chief learning scientist, about the future of AI in the workplace, the transformative benefits of investing in employee education, and EPAM’s remarkable response to support employees impacted by the war in Ukraine.
Discover how EPAM, a leader in software engineering and digital transformation, is championing a culture that empowers employees and leverages technology to drive impactful change.
“When Russia invaded Ukraine three years ago, something like 60% of EPAM employees were in either Russia, Belarus, or Ukraine. This war hit us like a massive punch. While some companies walked away, we didn’t. We mobilized the entire company all over the world to help our colleagues.”
“Our company has invested over and over again in people. I think the fact that our business is where it is today speaks to the business value of doing good for customers, for society, and for your people.”
