As the Great Resignation endures, millions of people continue to voluntarily leave their jobs. For employees who have stayed, and for those looking to return, choices about where, when, and how to work are top of mind.
It’s a concept that’s also top of mind for many employers. Across industries, organizations that have transformed their businesses to accommodate worker preferences are faring better when it comes to attracting and retaining top talent, even as disruption from the pandemic continues.
The role of workforce transformation
In a recent conversation, UKG President Chris Todd and Accenture Senior Managing Director Dave Shaw talked about the role workforce transformation plays in building top-notch employee experiences, and how an employee-first mindset has become an imperative, especially at large, enterprise organizations.
“Organizations are going to become organizations of choice by making their employees empowered and giving them the tools they need in order to feel empowered,” Chris said during the discussion.
Namely, a workforce management solution that offers the tools, methods, and strategic and analytical insights to address business objectives, while accommodating and empowering workers, is a key component of both the employee experience and digital transformation – two areas that UKG and Accenture partner on to help customers evaluate, define, and adopt an optimal strategy for a more resilient, agile, and engaged workforce.
