Our Approach
Science and experience for high performance
The science of performance
Workforce Engagement encapsulates the overall mental, emotional and physical energy an employee puts into their work. It’s well established in research and practice that a highly engaged workforce is strongly correlated with high performing businesses.
But how do you improve engagement? There are a myriad of factors that can improve engagement but how do you know which lever to pull, and if it will actually improve performance?
Enter Employee Experience.
Employee experience for high performance
Our approach is to reveal the holistic picture of the end-to-end employee experience (from before joining to after exit) to show not only where improvements could be made to impact engagement the most, but which interventions will have the greatest impact on performance. We’ll show you where to invest to get the biggest return.
A great employee experience leads to a highly engaged workforce, which in turn leads to better business performance. Good business performance allows further investment into the employee experience and the virtuous cycle continues.
The opposite is also true. A sustained period of poor business performance tends to erode the employee experience, decreasing engagement, which in turn negatively affects business performance, turning the cycle from virtuous to vicious.
SaltX brings Science and eXperience
No matter where you’re at, we bring our extensive real life experience in engagement, behavioural science and AI to pinpoint where and how you can make the biggest impact.
Workforce Engagement
We know engagement inside out and back to front based on both academic research and 20 years of real life application with businesses across industries from medium sized national tech companies to global pharmaceutical corporates. We know how to get underneath the skin of engagement and we know the levers to pull to give the best ROI and make a real difference to performance.
Behavioural Science
We don’t just understand business, we get people too. Humans aren’t 100% rational beings but rather make decisions and take actions based on a wide variety of complex factors and are, quite wonderfully, predictably irrational. So we don’t design solutions in spreadsheets and from textbooks but by using behavioural science to ensure our interventions actually work.
AI
AI is changing the business landscape, but how is it affecting the employee experience, and what’s the impact on workforce engagement? Our research has identified the core areas where AI is affecting the employee experience and we have an up to the minute overview of the potential benefits and risks of AI applications to workforce engagement.
Season with SaltX
A little salt makes food tasty. Our employee experience designs and interventions make work ‘tasty’, keeping your workforce highly engaged in a constantly changing environment. Salt is also the original preservative. These days, businesses must continually invest in their employee experience if they’re to preserve and keep improving their culture and high performing people. But how do you know what’s going to give you the biggest bang for your buck? That’s where we come in with our ‘X’ being short for ‘experience’. Season with SaltX.
