Lunch Time Round Table – A Discussion About Today’s Employee Experience

We know that many companies have now committed to being largely remote through much of 2021, and that the adrenalin of the initial phase of the pandemic has worn off. Everyone is exhausted, and we are clearly on a change journey with no end in sight… So how are companies approaching employee experience and communication over the next 6-12 months?

So, how then do we as professional communicators support our organizations to:

– Ensure employee engagement and avoid performance ‘drop outs.’

– Successfully onboard whole cohorts who have never met IRL?

– Support managers in leading and connecting fully remote teams?

– Safeguard employee wellbeing in the face of burnout, isolation and trauma?

– Help employees to deliver consistent customer experience?

– Recreate the ‘serendipity’ of co-location that fosters innovation and connection?

– Maintain company culture and values?

– Ensure that all employees understand, and are delivering on, critical business strategies and goals?
