People Matters EX APAC Virtual conference is a full-day event which will feature four virtual tracks and will take a deep dive into different aspects of the EX with keynotes, case study sessions, panel discussions, and a dedicated virtual exhibition space for service providers to showcase their latest offerings. It will cover the foundations of EX to maximize business success, accelerating the development of a consumer mindset to solving people & work challenges in order to attract and retain future talent, bolster productivity and ultimately build happier workplaces, which makes more business sense in the long run. So Come, Learn, interact, and network virtually with over 1000+ delegates and explore how EX translates in every decision in the talent strategy.

Adapting Employee Experience for the Now and Next of Work

People Matters EX Conference is a journey of discovery and imagination as to how organizations and businesses can leverage experience at the core of their business strategies to rethink employee experience for recovery, growth, and success in our new world of work. Below are the three broad Agenda themes:

Looking Back at 2020: The Year of EX?

How did the pandemic alter employee experience in 2020? What changes did organizations bring about? How did the EX change for an employee? What does employee experience in the new hybrid reality of work look like? What are some of the key defining parameters? Organizations will have to seriously pay attention to EX in order to retain top talent as work will stay virtual for the majority. Employee experience in 2021 requires continuous hearing and feedback from the organization rather than once in a quarter or once in six months surveys.

Employee Experience Journeys: The Next Curve

From hiring to onboarding to development, employee journeys have changed this year. What does an employee journey in the new reality of virtual work look like? Learning became one of the top modes to differentiate an organization’s employee experience and keep employees engaged. How will learning continue to be a top draw in 2021? What is new in learntech?

Designing a new EX for the Now and Next of Work

A hybrid workplace has further accentuated the importance of EX platforms for organizations to ensure a great and probably the only way of delivering employee experience. What do the new EX platforms look like? EX is not an HR strategy alone to increase well being and improve productivity and retention-it will become one of the most important components of employee branding. Designing for EX like you design for CX will become equally critical.
