Webinar: Big themes of 2021 and tips on how to embrace them

Details

Internal Communications teams proved their worth in 2020 by aiding organisations to effectively respond to the pandemic. The challenge in 2021 is to build on this momentum to ensure that internal comms is thought of as central to organisational success, whatever the circumstances.

Last year, the IoIC continued our work with Brand Experiences on the Employee EXperience Opportunity (EXO). This included running the EXO survey. The results are now in, and big themes include:

• Employees' attitudes to work
• Motivation & Wellbeing
• Leadership
• Aligning Employee Experience and Customer Experience
• Managing change
• Productivity
• The impact of Covid-19

In this webinar, attendees will have the exclusive first look at the results, and industry thought leaders will zone in on some of the big themes for 2021 and offer guidance on how to tackle them.

By the end of the session you will:

• Have an overview of the EXO survey results, arming you with knowledge of the big industry themes for 2021
• Learn some tactics and tips on how to meet these challenges
• Be the first to have access to the full EXO survey report

About the EXO

In November 2019, Brand Experiences and the IoIC launched the Employee EXperience Opportunity, calling on internal comms professionals to ‘come join the evolution’. The movement has a singular mission: to give Employee Experience (EX) parity with Customer Experience (CX) and seeks to address some of the issues which have led to worldwide employee engagement figures being at just 15%, and global costs of unproductivity at a staggering $7 trillion.
