Revolutionize your workplace - discover the keys to unlocking an irresistible employee experience
Despite 20 plus years of focusing on employee engagement, we have seen little improvement – according to some studies employees are actually less engaged today than they have ever been! Why? Because we need to focus on intentionally designing experiences that deliver engagement, rather than focusing on engagement as an end in its own right. This starts by asking and understanding what a great EX looks and feels like. In this keynote EX Space co-founders, Emma Bridger and Lee Smith, share the findings of People Lab research spanning more than 15 years which answers that seemingly simple question, along with a simple, practical, but powerful tool that will enable you to discover what will make the difference in your own organisation
