Annual employee engagement surveys (#EES) have become the norm, but are they truly driving the #change organisations need? High #participation levels in a survey are great, but it means little if #leaders don’t act on the #insights gathered.

Are Employee Experience (#EX) and #Culture the same thing? In some of the organisations we have spoken to, there seems to be a constant debate: Is #EX simply an outcome of a strong #organisational #culture, or are they distinct #concepts that deserve separate focus?

How much does your company's #culture reflect the external cultural dynamics of the region it operates in? In Africa, regional and historical factors, like community values and post-colonial legacies, deeply shape the way people #interact and perceive #leadership. Yet, many companies fail to consider these influences when transforming their internal culture. Is your company's culture #transformation approach truly aligned with the external social and cultural forces shaping the lives of your employees? How can we leverage cultural intelligence (#CQ) to balance global best practices with Africa's unique cultural context? Let’s discuss in the comments! #CultureTransformation #HRinAfrica #CulturalIntelligence #APAG Deon de Swardt Nicolas Constantinides Nicol Mullins Rene Steyn Stephen Okoth Armando Lionjanga Oliver Nathan Ronel Camacho Janene Schwartz Antoinette Dehrmann
