Building Leadership and Enhancing Engagement
Your Bank conducted Abhivriddhi, a leadership development programme for mid-management officials, sharpening skills in delegation, communication, and decision-making, with feedback-driven improvement. Our first Employee Engagement Survey, Abhyuday, and its upgraded version Abhyuday 2.0, provided insights to launch strategic initiatives like LEAP, Employee Happiness Survey, and Team KRA Implementation.

Strengthening Succession and Celebrating Success
A robust talent pipeline is in place to mitigate succession risks and ensure seamless leadership transitions. A Leadership Summit focusing on Creating Employee Value has also helped refine our approach to future leadership needs. To foster a culture of appreciation, your Bank launched SBI ACE — a dedicated employee social networking platform that celebrates achievements, builds unity, and drives high performance.
Recognising and
Rewarding

Performance-Linked Incentives (PLI), additional leave benefits for Chairman/MD Club members, and extra LFC entitlements for outstanding performers. SBI GEMS and SBI Applause honour employees’ achievements digitally, with the inaugural Applause felicitation held in 2025 - further strengthening a culture of recognition and motivation.
