Essential Insights

Overview

Free for CIPD members and Core Learning Subscribers.

The psychological contract is evolving, and employees are fast becoming “consumers of the workplace” (Gallup 2019.). We increasingly look for purpose and meaning at work; we want to be motivated and engaged and we seek managers who will coach us to be our best. By valuing people, a culture of trust, wellbeing and people development is fostered. Consequently, employers must examine and optimise the employee experience and employer brand.

Touching upon neuroscience and psychology, this short course defines employee experience vs. engagement and why it matters. You’ll explore evidence-based approaches to creating a great work environment for people, how a business case for change is built, and you’ll recognise management’s impact on a positive employee experience.

Designed and presented online by author and respected expert, Emma Bridger, this programme is aimed at anyone new to, or interested in, improving employee experience. It features insight from across the people profession, debunks the myths and signposts sources for further exploration.
