Experience design within organisations is rapidly becoming one of the most important trends in the workplace. Human Resources Professionals, In House Recruiters, everyone involved in the world of work all know that the experience people get from their interactions with your business – whether as an employee, manager, job candidate, alumni or customer – will define their relationship with you. A great experience boosts engagement and employee retention and helps to attract and retain customers and clients too.
Most of the workplace trends predictions for 2025 had experience – and wellbeing – as key differentiators, putting the design, planning, thinking and implementation of experiences within the business at the forefront of talent attraction and retention.
