More and more organizations today are beginning to implement employee experience strategies, as a way to better prepare for new hires. This module examines the growing importance of the employee experience and the positive impact it can have on a company's overall performance. It breaks down different components of the modern employee experience including perks, benefits and recognition. 

Work-life balance, another key pillar of the employee experience, is also discussed. We debunk the misconceptions of what really motivates a younger workforce, providing you with insight to create a customized experience for your own team.

Featured Insights

Stability-Based Perk
Businesses reevaluate employee perks to center them around value and need
Implications - Brands have long addressed Millennial recruitment and retention with relatively superficial perks in the form of free liquor, snack fridges, in-office games and more–however it is slowly being understood that these perks are not what fosters happiness or longevity within a company. Businesses are adapting to new research surrounding this generation's preferred work culture by offering benefits that centralize around stability, income, professional advancement, and the prioritization of a work-life balance – all relatively practical values that have long been overlooked by employers when seeking out the Millennial recruit.
Workshop Question - In what ways can your business let go of stereotypes within the recruitment process, and how can it better value the practical and professional needs of its prospective and current employees?

Agile Workplace
As more offices adopt a hybrid model more flexibility is needed
Trend - The post-pandemic workplace demands more flexibility than before. The average office worker knows how to be productive from home, making the idea of being in the office full-time harder to justify. Thus, hybrid workplaces are more common than ever; however, these come with a unique set of challenges that organizations in the industry aim to solve.
