Kolegz & Amélio: a winning recipe!
When HR creativity meets data, the employee experience becomes delicious.
Marianne Lemay's vision? To make Québec a better place to work by developing techniques that move away from the traditional HR model, in order to attract and retain employees differently.
That's how she founded Kolegz in 2019, a creative human resources firm that uses the ingredients of marketing and technology to turn organizations into true talent magnets.

Talent magnets, of every size and sector
And who are these organizations? Of every size and sector - such as the SAQ, Moment Factory, Leucan, Club Piscine and several municipalities - they share one thing in common: an openness to innovating and modernizing their HR.
Guided by values of empathy, imagination, concrete action and contagious positivity, the Kolegz team offers a full range of services around the candidate and employee experience - from strategic planning to employee retention, including employer branding, job postings and onboarding.
Taking the pulse before cooking up the employer brand
What's the ideal starting point for a strategic employer-brand plan? Taking the pulse of the employee experience is essential to build a bold, creative employer brand that's consistent with what your teams actually live.
That's why Kolegz uses the Amélio platform in its mandates to establish a precise, fast diagnosis of employee engagement.
In a few words
Our clients love Amélio! Our whole team of consultants gives you 11/10… and so do our clients!

The synergy between Kolegz and Amélio is obvious!
Technology, an essential ingredient
At Kolegz, technology is at the heart of everything they do: virtual training, interactive journeys, making the most of social media and the website for recruitment, online guides for managers, HR marketing strategies… the list is long!
Technological tools are an essential ingredient in transforming organizations and their human resources practices.
The collaboration with Amélio is therefore a perfect fit with the idea of putting technology at the service of improving the employee experience.
According to Marianne Lemay, the Amélio platform makes it easy to run diagnostic engagement surveys with their clients. But above all, thanks to advanced data analysis, Amélio greatly simplifies the work of HR consultants and helps prioritize the actions to put in place.
When data makes things move
The following example illustrates it perfectly! Within a large unionized organization, the results obtained through Amélio were an important lever for change.
Following the engagement survey conducted with the teams, management realized that significant changes needed to be made, while knowing exactly where they had to happen.
That's how the collective agreement was renegotiated and several initiatives were carried out to improve employees' working conditions.
This example really shows how, thanks to Amélio - with the data you can draw from it and the priorities that follow - it's possible to put in place measures to optimize employee satisfaction, whether the workplace is unionized or not! We then support them in taking action. It was truly a wonderful success.
Flexibility that fits every reality
The members who make up the Kolegz team have solid expertise in human resources, marketing, psychometrics and technology.
And on the side of the organizations they work with, realities are varied - because of the number of employees or the sector of activity, among other things. As you can imagine, a company specialized in technology won't face the same day-to-day challenges as a school environment, for example.
Given this diversity of expertise and environments, it's crucial that the tools used by Kolegz offer great flexibility.
Everything is customizable with Amélio. We can easily add our own pinch of salt by adapting the survey questions, for example, to measure exactly the engagement factors we want to measure, all while staying true to our clients' reality.
With real-time results analysis and automated reports right within the Amélio platform, the "kolegz" can save many hours of digging through data. They can then add their pinch of salt to maximize their high added value in their mandates. In short, everyone wins!
Choosing partners with the greatest care
At Kolegz, partners are chosen with the greatest care so that they constantly exceed clients' expectations. The user experience is at the heart of these decisions.
I've used many survey or employee engagement platforms, but the user experience offered by Amélio is really what sets it apart. Everything is simple, intuitive and user-friendly.
Being close to the Quebec market and having access to fast support are also factors that made Amélio a partner of choice for Kolegz.
A deliciously winning recipe
Kolegz has made it its mission to help organizations make themselves appealing in the eyes of candidates and to give employees a sweeter, gentler experience.
To do this, the creative human resources firm needs to be able to rely on good utensils that will help it achieve delicious results.
And that's exactly what the partnership between Kolegz and Amélio makes possible: a deliciously winning recipe that combines ingredients of engagement, marketing and technology, turning the organizations that get a taste into inspiring and attractive workplaces.
Employee engagement is essential to performance
Amélio is the most complete tool to create an inspiring employee experience and retain your employees.
