In this HCI Podcast episode, Dr. Jonathan H. Westover (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanhwestover/) talks with Josh Bersin about his new report, The Definitive Guide: Employee Experience (published July 14, 2021; see https://joshbersin.com/ex-definitive-guide-2021/). EX has evolved from a niche topic that only the most forward-thinking CHROs worked, on to a c-suite priority. The report crystallizes the key best HR and HR tech practices CEOs need to embed into their organizations to deliver excellent EX. Most significantly, the report finds that while technology is important, trust in leadership, transparency, and inclusion are what really moves the needle here. See the video here: https://youtu.be/RsUnjwQp8rU.
The six key EX best practices Employee Experience: The Definitive Guide identifies are:

Focus on trust, transparency, inclusion and care
The importance of a supportive culture
Innovation and sustainable growth depend on equitable rewards and building communities at work
Consistent, mission-first people investments in any business climate improve business performance
EX excellence leads directly to increased profit
HR capability and the right technologies are vital to great EX
