Why employee experience is a business-critical priority
Employee experience covers how workers feel about their culture, managers, growth opportunities, work-life balance and day-to-day support. When employees lack support in these areas, organizations may see effects on engagement and performance before employees leave.
The business case is clear. According to the study, employers reporting supportive cultures are 71% more likely to see productivity improvements, 54% more likely to improve retention and 28% more likely to see revenue growth. Yet the report identifies several perception gaps, including that many employers may overestimate how well they meet employee needs around compensation, work-life balance and manager support. This report gives HR leaders, executives and business owners the research and direction to help close those gaps.
