Employee Experience Design and Moments That Matter

Employee experience is the sum of every interaction a person has with the organisation, from the first interview to the final farewell. This course teaches HR practitioners to apply design thinking to the employee journey, identify the moments that shape loyalty and fix the friction that quietly drives good people away. Practical mapping exercises use African workplace scenarios throughout.

What you will be able to do

  • Define employee experience and distinguish it from engagement.
  • Map the full employee journey and locate friction points.
  • Identify the moments that matter most for your workforce.
  • Apply design thinking methods to redesign a key HR touchpoint.
  • Gather employee feedback through listening posts and personas.
  • Build an experience improvement roadmap with clear owners.
