In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/resources\/research-reports\/state-of-the-connected-customer\/?d=7013y000000ZsyyAAC&amp;nc=7013y000000Zsz3AAC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">66% of customers<\/a> have stopped buying from a company whose values didn&#8217;t align with theirs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, your employees want to work at organisations that share their values. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlassian.com\/blog\/leadership\/return-on-action-report-2021-employee-expectations#:~:text=Values%20alignment%20matters%20more%20than%20ever&amp;text=41%20percent%20of%20Gen%20Y,not%20align%20with%20their%20own.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">In one study of Australian workers<\/a>, 37% of employees would quit their job if their employer\u2019s values didn\u2019t align with theirs \u2014 a 6% rise from previous years. For millennials, who make up the largest cohort of the workforce, this number was 41%.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Equally, employees also want insights into how the business is run and opportunities to learn and grow within the business. Finally, they expect their employers to be responsive to their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Improving employee experience makes sound economic sense, too \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/resources\/research-reports\/state-of-service\/?d7013y000000vbhiAAA&amp;nc=7013y000000vbhdAAA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">85% of decision-makers agree there is a direct link<\/a> between employee experience and customer experience. And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/resources\/research-reports\/state-of-the-connected-customer\/?d=7013y000000ZsyyAAC&amp;nc=7013y000000Zsz3AAC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">85% of customers say their purchase decisions<\/a> are swayed by how companies treat employees. Bottom line \u2014 if you want to deliver a great customer experience, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/great-customer-experience-starts-with-employee-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">look first to the experience of your employees<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But how do you improve employee experience without spending a fortune? The solution lies in treating employees more like customers. You can use technology to make every interaction as slick, intuitive and rewarding as possible. Here are a few tips on how to deliver a top-quality employee experience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-focus-on-digital-collaboration-to-drive-employee-productivity\">1. Focus on digital collaboration to drive employee productivity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Successful digital collaboration has myriad payoffs, including:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>strong team relationships that don\u2019t rely on an office space to flourish<\/li><li>faster innovation<\/li><li>increased responsiveness to customer needs.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/new-to-slack-heres-our-101-guide-to-getting-started\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">Workplace productivity tools like Slack<\/a> make collaboration in hybrid environments much easier. Users can streamline workflows, automate mundane processes, share files, and collaborate on projects. Tools like Slack will empower your team to keep track of information and reduce clutter in their inboxes. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/what-is-intelligent-automation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">Task automation<\/a> reduces the potential for error and AI-driven prompts and alerts stop important tasks from falling through the cracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-use-workflow-automation-to-reduce-busywork-and-streamline-processes\">2. Use workflow automation to reduce busywork and streamline processes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Automation can help boost employee engagement by eliminating repetitive tasks, allowing your employees to focus on more meaningful work. Automating manual operations like data entry can reduce not just tedium and frustration, but also the risk of human error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Automated systems can also speed up and streamline review and approval processes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/blog\/automated-onboarding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">onboarding and training<\/a>, and other HR and administrative tasks. This helps employees work efficiently and effectively \u2014 no matter where they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"layout-one wp-block-salesforce-blog-offer\">\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__wrapper\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__content\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"wp-block-offer__title\">Prepare your workforce for the future<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wp-block-offer__description\">Get the latest research and webinars for how to prepare for the future of work.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/resources\/future-of-work\/\">Explore resources<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__contour\"><\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<!-- Standard Illustration -->\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__illustration\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-illustration-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\n\t\t<!-- Small Accent Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__accent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-accent-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Left Side Illustration -->\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Cloud Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__cloud\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-cloud-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-rethink-your-approach-to-employee-wellbeing\">3. Rethink your approach to employee wellbeing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Employee wellbeing and employee engagement are closely connected and can have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jimpurcell\/2020\/02\/11\/employee-wellbeing-a-new-perspective-on-roi\/?sh=7df61642574d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">measurable impact on ROI<\/a> \u2014 including reductions in turnover, absenteeism, and recruitment and training costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The challenge for businesses is how to make meaningful improvements to employee wellbeing. Beware free snacks and yoga classes as a quick fix. Instead, consider:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>involving employees in the company\u2019s vision<\/li><li>listening to and acting on their input<\/li><li>recognising and celebrating performance<\/li><li>creating opportunities for meaningful work<\/li><li>providing training and guidance to support career growth<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-make-culture-count\">4. Make culture count<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like customers, employees want to be part of a culture they can be proud of, so look to your customers for insights into your employees. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/resources\/research-reports\/state-of-the-connected-customer\/?d=7013y000000ZsyyAAC&amp;nc=7013y000000Zsz3AAC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">Recent Salesforce research<\/a> shows that nearly nine in 10 customers expect companies to clearly state their values, but only 50% say they think this actually happens. By clearly stating your company values, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/giving-back-the-secret-to-growth-engagement-and-loyalty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">and living up to them<\/a>, you\u2019ll not only attract the best talent, but more customers too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as customers increasingly value authenticity, so too do employees looking for clear and consistent communication and leaders who really connect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-boost-employee-engagement-with-gamification\">5. Boost employee engagement with gamification<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gamification can be a powerful way to make onboarding, training, and learning more dynamic and engaging for employees. This is especially true for remote and distributed teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gamification can have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/blog\/gamification-platform\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">dramatic impact on employee productivity and engagement<\/a>. In a recent survey, <a href=\"https:\/\/financesonline.com\/gamification-trends\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">54% of new hires<\/a> said they are more productive due to gamified onboarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/trailhead.salesforce.com\/for-companies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">Trailhead<\/a> \u2014 Salesforce\u2019s continuous learning platform \u2014 companies can create a customised environment with their own content and branding to help employees with everything from onboarding to company-specific enablement skills and career progression.
