Employee experience has emerged as the top priority for leaders across the Asia Pacific. Organisations will have to seriously pay attention to EX in order to retain top talent, especially as they face the era of ‘Great Resignation’. To begin with, EX in 2021 requires continuous hearing and feedback from the organisation rather than once in a quarter or once in six months surveys. Furthermore, learning became one of the top elements to differentiate an organization’s employee experience and keep employees engaged. In addition to flexibility, inclusion, and wellness, career development is also a key priority for talent which companies must address. 

Moving on, a hybrid workplace has further accentuated the importance of EX platforms for organisations to ensure a great way of delivering employee experience. 

But what do the new EX platforms look like? What does employee experience in the new hybrid reality of work look like? What are some of the key defining parameters? What does an employee journey in the new reality of hybrid work look like? 

Get answers to these questions at APAC's biggest initiative in the employee experience space, People Matters EX APAC in just a few days on 9th Sep, 2021. 

Here’s why you must attend People Matters EX APAC:
