but can be part of it.

which they work, across the employee lifecycle , shaped by the
organization’s culture.

Across the employee lifecycle;
Seen from the employee’s
perspective instead of internal
processes.

We moved from
an employer-driven to a candidate-
driven
job market
In the past people were just happy to have a job and job security
MOBILE & CONNECTED WORKFORCE
Today’s employees are seeking jobs where
they can co-create with colleagues,
embrace flexibility and be exposed to new
development opportunities.
They want gamified collaboration software,
they want to share multimedia, be
connected all the time.
TRANSPARENCY
New platforms make it easy for
past employees, freelancers and
interns to share their employee
experience
HIGH DEMAND FOR SPECIFIC SKILLS
To attract and keep talent,
managers will need to invest in
their well-being, they expect more
than before from a company.
86% of companies globally cite
‘gaps in their leadership pipeline’
as one of their top 3 issues

DIGITALIZATION OF PROCESSES
Digital technology is
transforming how people
work—demanding a
fundamentally different HR
strategy.
Modern HR teams use
multiple tools
(culture/productivity
tools/platforms)
WHY IS A GREAT EMPLOYEE EXPERIENCE IMPORTANT?
Attract, Retain &
Grow Talent
Support The Digital
Transformation
Drive Customer
Centricity
More of the same isn’t going to cut it.
Employers need to update their HR practices.
Taking a more holistic view.
A candidate driven job market requires moving
from efficiency driven processes to the design
of compelling employee experiences.

Why would a
talented
candidate want
to work in our
company?
How do we
retaiN our
engaged
employees?
When you work on EE,
there are 2 important questions to ask!
It’s time to look at HR
from a different perspective.
The perspective of the employee.
Using DESIGN THINKING.
WHAT WE DO
Our purpose is to help you build
internal change and innovation
capabilities so you’re ready to
navigate complexity and
positively engage in an uncertain
world, together with your teams.
We use techniques like Design
Thinking, Creative Problem
Solving, Gamestorming and
Lean to engage your people in
the execution of your strategy
and change, through co-creation
of business strategies and
solutions.
Great employee experiences don’t happen by chance.
They are
thoughtfully designed,
just like great customer experiences.
Design Thinking
=
Creative, Solution & User-Focused
Problem Solving
Design Thinking is a systematic, more collaborative and
human-centered approach to problem solving.
Principles of Design Thinking

CENTERED

CREATIVE
TANGIBLE ITERATIVE
Cisco Hackathon
Cisco organised a HR Breakathon with the slogan:
"In 24 hours HR will never be the same".
The purpose was the creation of a sharper HR
department in which silo’s, timezones and cultural
obstacles sease to exist. That way innovative HR
solutions can get space.
Design Thinking helps HR to reinvent itself
LinkedIn Hackdays
Design Thinking focuses on Employee Experience
LinkedIn organised a 6 week
program with 1000
participants from Linkedin
but also Facebook,
Google and other Silicon
Valley companies.
Main focus was to find
solutions for specific issues
around low employee
engagement of interns.
Citrix Design Thinking
Design Thinking helps HR to feed company wide innovation
Citrix started with initiatives
within their product
organisation, but soon figured
out that the scaling up of Design
Thinking throughout the
organisation was the way
forward. Because it is very much
applicable to everything they do.
Designing the AirBnB Candidate
Design Thinking helps HR to problem solve
Airbnb grew heavily and this
hyper-growth was taking its
toll. “Candidates were falling
through the cracks”. They
mapped out the ideal process
from both the candidate and
the hiring team perspectives.
The Design Thinking Process
Possible Outcomes
Zappos had to reject 99%
of applicants when hiring.
To positively deal with
this, they invented Zappos
insider, ditching the idea
of applying to a specific
job posting and instead
focusing on developing
long-term relationships
with potential applicants
Possible Outcomes
This team developed and
presented ‘Infinite,’ a strategy
and personalized mobile app
that maximizes intern
engagement through
machine learning and
increases the conversion of
interns to full-time hires.
