Challenge

This challenge is designed to build on the concepts from the preceding sections. The aim is to provide you with a framework to assess the experiences your organization is currently investing in and could invest in, in the future.

[Note] Note

The examples provided in this challenge are based on an organization that is investing in the early stages of understanding its Employee Experience.

List X and O Data for your Organization

Thinking about your organization, or any organization you have experience with, list the following information:

  1. 5 types of Operational data that your organization currently collects.

    Example- Employee Tenure

  2. 5 types of Experience data that your organization currently collects.

    Example- Overall Employee Satisfaction

  3. 5 types of Experience data that your organization should consider measuring in the future.

    Example- Employee expectations for new hire training

Practice Combining X and O Data

Next, consider the X and O-Data you listed above. Answer the following questions for your organization:

  1. What are the different ways you can overlay the X and O components to identify relationships with this data? List three.

    Example - Analyze Employee Satisfaction (X Data) score broken down by Employee Tenure and Employee Training Expectations (O-data).

  2. For each of the items identified in step 1, write out a potential insight you can gain from this analysis.

    Example - Employees early in their journey may have higher expectations of training. You may learn that you are not meeting these expectations in certain categories of new hire training.

  3. For each of the insights, you identified in step 2, write out a potential action your organization can take to improve the stakeholder experience.

    Example - Review the current training programs with new employees to improve the satisfaction for problematic categories for future employees.
