On-Demand Session Videos Now Available
WorkplaceEX 2021 was a successful two, half-days thanks to all our speakers and facilitators, nearly 1,000 registrants, and those who helped produce the event. We all came together and created some incredibly valuable insights. We’ve collected these workplace experience insights and created a treasure trove of information now available to watch on-demand.
Shared Insights
WorkplaceEX had over 20 speakers and 1,000 registrants. Collectively they shared some key insights and takeaways. Here are a few we’d like to call out.
An emergency work from home event forced us to have to look at how we operate in different ways and really amplified completely changing what the workforce is, where it is, how it’s going to operate, and what expectations are.
This wasn’t just a year of the pandemic or reflection. It was also the year of the great reset. The reset is potentially a great opportunity for us to come back to work with fresh ideas and also the courage to be able to make a difference.
On the topic of diversity, equity and inclusion, a stance is not an action. A stance is not a commitment. A stance alone is not accountability.
We spent the last few years listening hard to our customers and we learned that most communication is really only one way, and frankly that is a challenge to making an employee journey meaningful when we are just communicating from top down.
A brand today in 2021 is not something that is tightly held and controlled by an individual or a marketing team. A brand is something that others feel ownership of and is a platform which others can build on top of. If you allow your employees to build a space where they can come together, congregate, educate about a lived experience or identity it weds them to each other, to your organization, and provides a source of information that can further your business.
Today we are missing that in-person connection, so our intranets, mobile and social apps, and emails are becoming the pulse of the organization, and as communicators we are becoming the heartbeat as we get messages out there which gives life to our organization, culture, values and what’s going on.
When it comes to how we will handle the hybrid workplace opportunity we are going to take the same approach we do with everything we do which is data-drive and test and learn. We don’t have the answer yet, but we do have a strategy on how to approach it.
My communications team and I learned burnout is real, so we have to be mindful of the type and volume of messaging we are pushing at people.
We shouldn’t wait for an incident to happen for us to start to talk about mental health in the workplace so thinking about ways where we are constantly protecting and trying to drive employee psychological well-being on an everyday basis is where we need to be.
Stop random acts of communication. Be strategic and intentional about your approach. Find the data you have and start using it to segment employees and teams and engage them to understand their preferences and opinions and what they expect from your communications approach.
