Employee experience breaks down when onboarding, change rollouts, manager comms or culture initiatives get handed off across HR, comms and business teams with fuzzy ownership and competing priorities. Here's how other leaders successfully aligned stakeholders before launch, coordinated execution and kept momentum going. You'll learn how to:

  • Align Around Key Moments: How to get HR, comms and business leads walking in lockstep with onboarding, change efforts, manager enablement and culture campaigns.
  • Clarify Who Owns What: How to define roles, decision rights and approvals so EX initiatives don't stall, splinter or get rewritten by other teams.
  • Run EX Like a Real Operation: How to use shared briefs, standups and simple project workflows to keep execution moving across functions.
  • Keep Momentum after Launch: Smart ways to prevent good EX initiatives from dying after rollout with feedback loops, visible wins and shared success measures—that you own.
  • Sustain and Improve: How to use retrospectives, performance data and continuity plans to make cross-functional collaboration easier on the next initiative.
