Big idea

The future organization knows exceptional employee experiences drive exceptional customer experiences.

If Maslow had created a hierarchy of organizational needs, employee experience would be the base of the pyramid.

What we're seeing

How much your customers like working with you depends on how well your employees’ needs are met. Unearthing and improving the daily, lived experiences of your employees is a surefire way to enrich the experiences you create for customers.

Why it matters

Serving your customers starts with seeing systems and processes from your employees’ points of view. The future organization needs to uncover previously-hidden connections and deeply-buried pain points in order to grow.
