We often think of employee experience as a checklist: better offices, better technology, better perks. But we’ve been missing the bigger picture all along. In today’s Leadership Spark, we dive deep into how employee experience has fundamentally evolved, and why it's now the most powerful lever leaders have to shape trust, loyalty, and performance at work. Drawing on research from 252 organizations and insights from 150 senior executives, we’ll explore the real drivers of experience: culture, technology, and physical space. You’ll learn why work today isn't just about what people do, but about the environment that shapes how they feel, how they connect, and why they stay. If you want to future-proof your leadership and your organization, it starts with designing an experience worth fighting for.
