How to Bridge the Gap Between Customer and Employee Experience (an Interview with Luke Farrugia & Kaz Hassan)
Digital HR Leaders with David Green
January 30, 2024
As HR professionals and leaders, if we want to start taking a more strategic approach that will elevate the business impact HR has, we need to evolve from being process-focused to becoming strategic partners. This means taking ownership of people data and insights, and using them to drive decisions that have a real impact on the business.

Take, for instance, employee experience. How can we make this more strategic? What can we learn from marketing and the strategies that they use to enhance the customer experience?

To delve deeper into this topic, on this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green sits down with Kaz Hassan, Employee Experience Industry Lead at Unily, and Luke Farrugia, VP of Marketing at ScreenCloud.
