For over 14 years, Jan Becker, Senior Vice President at Autodesk, has been leading the Human Resources and Corporate Real Estate, Facilities, Travel and Safety (CREFTS) team. During this time, as Autodesk has grown, evolved, and transformed, Jan and her team have played a vital role in shaping the company into not just a great workplace, but also a well-structured organization that supports long-term business goals. While many members of the executive leadership team are often in the spotlight, Jan’s contributions have largely remained behind the scenes—making it all the more meaningful that she has been honored by HRO Today Magazine as their Chief Human Resource Officer of the Year.
At an award ceremony held earlier this week in Philadelphia, Jan accepted the recognition and shared insights on how her team has helped maintain Autodesk’s competitive edge and innovation. Here are some key initiatives that highlight their impact:
- Autodesk recently introduced a groundbreaking performance management system that replaced traditional annual reviews with ongoing, quarterly conversations between managers and employees. This shift focuses on continuous development and aligns more closely with individual career goals.
- The Talent Acquisition team was one of the first to leverage social media platforms like LinkedIn for recruitment. Today, they are pushing the boundaries further by developing next-generation online recruiting tools that make the hiring process more personalized and candidate-centric.
- The Corporate Real Estate, Facilities, Travel, and Safety division has used Autodesk software to design and construct a global network of award-winning workspaces. These spaces not only reflect the company's creative culture and energy but also achieve high sustainability standards. They have contributed to Autodesk being named on nearly 20 Great Place to Work lists globally over the past three years, including a spot at #70 on FORTUNE’s 100 Best Places to Work in 2014.
We are incredibly proud of Jan and her team for this well-deserved recognition. Let’s celebrate their hard work and dedication!
