Companies that prioritize customer experience (CX) have been shown to outperform their counterparts. But what about the employee experience (EX)? At Sparrow Connected, we firmly believe that treating employees like valued customers and utilizing omnichannel communications can significantly enhance EX, leading to improved organizational performance. Let's explore why and how you should adopt this approach.  

1. Putting Employees Front and Center 

Just as customer-obsessed companies experience higher sales growth, employee-obsessed organizations benefit from engaged and motivated teams. By viewing your internal communications through the lens of your employees, you can orchestrate their comms experience across all channels, ensuring a seamless, integrated, and consistent journey. 

2. Harnessing the Power of Omnichannel 

Omnichannel communications have long been used in marketing to create superior customer experiences. By applying the same principles to internal communications, you can deliver a similar level of personalized and seamless experience to your employees. This is especially relevant as employees increasingly expect the same quality of experience at work as they enjoy as consumers in their personal lives. 

3. Relevant Content 

Individual and disconnected channels and technologies can hinder your ability to deliver relevant employee communications. By embracing an omnichannel approach, you can center your communications around the needs and preferences of your employees, ensuring content is personalized, channels work together cohesively, and information is relevant and engaging. 

4. Steps to Implementing an Omnichannel Strategy 

To make the shift to omnichannel communications, follow these steps: 

  • Conduct an audit of your existing channels and assess their effectiveness. 
  • Survey employees to determine their channel preferences and communication preferences. 
  • Create employee personas to target your messaging and make it more relevant. 
  • Utilize a unified omnichannel internal communications platform with analytics to deliver and measure the performance of your communications.

By treating your employees like valued customers and implementing an omnichannel communications strategy, you can enhance the employee experience, foster a positive workplace culture, and drive organizational success.  

Sparrow Connected is here to assist you in creating a seamless and engaging communications framework that prioritizes the needs and preferences of your employees. Talk to us today and embark on your journey towards an employee-centric culture that fuels productivity and growth.
