While large corporations can afford to invest heavily in employee experience programmes, other organisations tend to have smaller budgets available to invest in these programs. Thankfully, budget doesn’t always need to be a factor, below are some low cost strategies that any company can implement to optimize their employee experience:

1. Create a culture of diversity and inclusion

2. Introduce employee wellbeing initiatives

3. Introduce small rewards and bonuses

4. Personalize their workplace experience

5. Digitize your HR function

Alexis Smith, Director of Employer Branding & Digital N.A. at Anheuser-Busch speaks to the importance of replacing the focus on the employee. Recommitting to the employee experience and remembering that the only way to reach your customers is through your employees is what makes or breaks a company.

In a dearth of worldwide employee engagement, more companies are realising the benefits of articulating the Voice of the Employee in the employee lifecycle. Strategies for determining this voice are now being leveraged alongside Customer Experience’s Voice-of-the-customer in an HR revolution for greater service delivery and profitability.

Contributing experts include Niall Ryan-Jones, the Head of Employee Experience at Harrods; Alyson Fadil, the Head of People at Missguided, and Piers Robinson, Chief People Officer at Flybe.
