Driving Productivity and Resilience in the Workplace During Challenging Times

Employee belonging has emerged as the most powerful factor fuelling the employee experience. 

Fostering a sense of belonging at work leads to greater productivity, stronger employee well-being, and lower levels of turnover, but it takes more than a one-size-fits-all approach to build an employee experience that supports the unique and often changing needs of your people.

The Belonging Factor: Technology to Power Your Employee Experience

How to Master the Tech-Enabled Employee Experience

The way we show and receive appreciation differs from person to person across geographies and cultures. While some may love being thanked in front of the entire office, stepping into centre stage while others are less keen on the publicity and attention.
 
The cultural gap linked to differences in communication, attitudes and behaviours between Asian cultures and their Western counterparts can pose significant challenges for HR in implementing high performing employee engagement programs.
 
So, how can HR address these fundamental cultural differences among employees and develop programs that can create a sense of belonging?

The last two years have served as a reminder that while our employees may be out of sight, they can never be out of mind and they must always be heard.
 
When employees have a real voice at their organization, they feel like they’re a part of something bigger than themselves. Organizations that make employee listening a key part of their employee experience are more likely to have committed employees that feel valued and respected and are enthusiastic about their work.
 
With many employees struggling to stay motivated and engaged in the workplace today, cultivating a culture of belonging is essential for every company and leader who wants a thriving, productive, and happy team.
