Change is so rapid today that leaders must do more than stay the course to create successful, performance driven teams. To achieve real employee engagement and radical business results, leaders need to be flexible and ready to adapt to the shifting needs of candidates and employees. Creating an environment for employees to perform includes both art and science. The art of engagement and employee empowerment starts with making 5 key leadershifts – setting the stage for authentic, purpose driven teams. The science is integrating analytics into the way leaders engage with individual team members to unlock discretionary performance. The result is engaged teams that crush our goals!

11:45 am - 12:15 pm How Occupational Segregation Can Improve Workplace Diversity Initiatives

Patrick Boyle - Talent Analytics & Strategy Consultant, Dell Technologies
A function of D&I units is to minimize the barriers people may face when trying to find and obtain work that suits their skills and experience. Barriers can be very subtle, such as "word-of-mouth recruitment". This type of barrier is also referred to as “opportunity hoarding”, and is often overlooked by those who benefit from it. These barriers harm not only employees, but also organizations that are less able to access, retain, and promote the best possible candidates as a result. One of the many ways to spot these barriers is to explore how different demographic groups are spread across occupations and how people might be assisted in or restricted from holding certain roles. 

Learn in this session:
  • How Occupational segregation (OS), the slotting of a primary race- or gender-based groups into particular occupations, can have a harmful effect not only on employees’ income and stability but also on organizational outcomes
  • Measuring occupational segregation will tell us how far we are from that ideal so we can provide a resolution

12:45 pm - 1:45 pm Shared Networking Luncheon with EX Impact

The team building never stops! Hook up with your team members and peers from EX Impact over lunch. Discuss best practices and lessons learnt so far in a friendly, informal environment.
The field of people analytics is booming - there is a huge increase in investment as well. It's not only new software or new tools we have to analyze and store your data. Now we can go as far as to analyze "change in mood" or signs that your employee is looking for a new job. Soon we will also have programs that can analyze conversations and take note of the stress level. With all that developing the main question is: where is the ethical line between being advance and caring about your employees to converting to Big Brother and invading the privacy? What is the difference between employee data and private data? And what about organizational networking analysis if we are talking about social interactions?

3:00 pm - 3:30 pm Afternoon Networking and Coffee Break

3:30 pm - 4:15 pm How to improve retention and culture using advanced ML technologies. Artificial Neural Networks can detect employee burnout analyzing active and passive data.

David Yang - People Analytics, Predictive Behavioral Analytics expert, Co-Founder, Yva.ai
Detecting burnout in the early stages as a way to prevent potential resignation. Burnout, recently included in the WHO’s International Classification of Diseases as an “occupational phenomenon”, causes an estimated 1 million workers per day call in sick. This data is backed by the poll conducted by Monster, with 61% of respondents claiming stress has been the cause of illness and 46% of respondents missing time at work due to work-related stress. The departure of a skilled employee may jeopardize the company's operations for months and the corresponding costs add up to a two-year salary in hiring, training, and getting a replacement up to speed. Learn in this session:

  • Artificial Intelligence and its role in detecting early signs of burnout
  • Why luck of managerial support is of the most common reasons behind burnout and how to change it
  • How to use Data to recognize signs of an employee’s dissatisfaction
