"The Estée Lauder Companies’ (ELC) intranet — MyELC Digital Workplace — must support a large and diverse workforce, and its innovative design rises to that challenge with ease. MyELC celebrates the organization’s culture, strategy, and peer-to-peer communication while promoting productivity and collaboration to fuel the business. "
