Qualtrics, the leader in experience management, has launched a diagnostic assessment and employee experience methodology that combines expert advice and best practices amassed from thousands of successful employee engagement, talent and culture programs with leading global brands. The new tools will serve as an enhancement to Qualtrics’ employee experience (EX) management platform, Qualtrics Employee ExperienceTM.
According to an IDC Asia-Pacific study, only a mere 35 percent of employees across the region are moderately satisfied and engaged at work. In fact, 28 percent of employees surveyed are very likely to switch jobs if an opportunity arises. With the rising issue of brain drain and talent shortage in the region, tracking and managing employee experience is increasingly important in helping Asia-Pacific companies understand how employees are faring at work and prevent employee defection.

“It very clear that there is a significant gap in between employee expectation and the delivery of a world-class employee experience. This gap is causing frustration and disengagement amongst employees resulting in companies potentially losing their top talent and future leaders” said Steve Bennetts, Employee Experience Expert at Qualtrics. “Great employee experiences engage employees throughout their career journey and provide ongoing opportunities for feedback, growth, and create an engaging workplace environment, which in turn increases the employee’s lifetime contribution and commitment to the company.”
Qualtrics is the first and only employee experience management platform that measures employee experiences across the entire employee lifecycle, automatically prioritising key drivers of engagement and experience. Powered by a predictive intelligence engine, Qualtrics Employee Experience eliminates the need for manual analysis and automatically surfaces deep insights that help organisations make important HR decisions. By delivering real-time, role-based insights to the right people, managers and leaders can now uncover areas of weakness, take action, and drive critical organisational outcomes.
Qualtrics offers a free EX diagnostic that provides a customised assessment of employee experience at any organisation. Measured against the Four Pillars of EX Success—Qualtrics' proven methodology for EX program success—the diagnostic evaluation includes an individualised report with a full description of what can be done to improve an existing EX program to achieve better organisational and financial results.

Qualtrics' Four Pillars of EX Success provides a guide for companies to assess and manage their employee experience programs according to best-in-class criteria. Based on years of experience with the world's leading brands, the methodology provides practical guidance on:
- Executive Alignment & Culture: Establishes a culture of feedback and transparency driven by executive leaders who see feedback as an integral driver of employee experience and organisational improvement.
- Experience Feedback Mechanisms: Captures feedback at every stage of the employee journey--from recruitment to exit--to identify and optimise key experiences and engagement drivers.
- Engagement & Accountability: Empowers managers and leaders to take action and improve their teams by giving them the tools they need to visualise feedback, analyse data, and build action plans.
- Expansion & Scale: Creates a flexible, scalable, and integrated employee experience program that enables you to continually test and innovate as well as connect employee experience data with customer, brand, and product experience data.
Qualtrics Employee Experience is an anchor of Qualtrics' leading XM Platform™, the industry standard for experience management. The XM Platform allows companies to manage the four core experiences of business—customer, employee, product and brand experience—on a single platform. Experience data from the platform tells companies why things are happening across the organisation, and helps predict what customers and employees want most.
