What is people experience?
People Experience is the result of all the interactions an employee has with their employer. Its closely related to employee engagement and focuses on creating a great working environment for organisations to get the most out of their people.
What are the benefits of a good people experience?
Research, by Gallup, shows connected employees achieve 37% higher performance at work. And 89% of executives say better employee experience leads to better customer experience.
This data is clear: Employee experience is not a nice to have, it’s a business imperative. Engaged employees means happy customers, which leads to better business outcomes. And that’s a win for everyone.
When employees succeed, companies succeed. Designing your employee experience leads to:
- Lower turnover rates
- Attracting high quality candidates
- Improved products and services
- Improved communication and deeper engagement between management and employees
- Employees who are more focussed on contributing to company success
- A more collaborative environment
- Increased customer satisfaction
- Improved productivity
- Amore inclusive workforce
- An innovative workforce and a great employer brand
