Getting                              Audience Segmentation is level 1 of getting personal. Personas are level 2 and

                                               Personalisation is level 3. They do not replace each other - you need all 3 to enhance your
          Personal                             employee experience.

                                               Audience Segmentation helps to understand your people and their lives - you usually
                                               start by segmenting them by role, generations, lifecycle, career and life stage, preferences
                                               and other demographics.

                                               Personas are used to empathise and better understand individuals/ groups. They are
                                               fictional characters that exhibit the traits/ lifestyle of an ideal customer. Start by tracking
                                               data and getting regular feedback from key audiences/ stakeholder groups across the
                                               business. Establishing feedback forums for straight talking engaging conversations with
                                               employees about their lives adds more depth to this work. You can then use the data to
                                               create personas, that allow you to empathise with your different audiences and create more
                                               personalized services – especially helpful when looking at the employee experience as a
                                               lifecycle or journey.
                                               We are living in the age of Personalisation - as consumers we have become accustomed
                                               to expecting personalised experiences – where everything from our buying habits,
                                               communication, learning, entertainment and more are personalised. With data analytics
                                               everything can be measured within a business too – so the workplace is following suit –
                                               with the ability to consider individual wishes and capabilities. With a shift to multi
                                               generational workforces and different employment options – we have colleagues with
                                               different agendas and ways of being – it is all about personalisation as an enabler to
                                               connect to people and drive performance.

                                               This will initially be seen in the revolution of learning and development to provide
                                               customised learning experiences and performance feedback; employee led communication
                                               channel preferences and targeted personalisation and customisation across the employee
              We See You                       lifecycle. It will provide the foundation data to detect behaviours and discover correlations
                                               in behaviours among employees to build holistic employee experiences.
             We Hear You                       There are three additional factors to consider when looking to use employee data and

            We Value You                       feedback to get personal: gaining and maintaining employee trust, respecting privacy and
                                               the ethical use of such data.
