We’ve all had that moment: working at a job we dislike, then moving to a nearly identical role at a different company, and suddenly loving it.

In today’s Leadership Spark, we explore why employee experience has become the foundation of modern workplaces.

Work is supposed to be human, but too often it feels like the opposite. For decades, we’ve built organizations on outdated assumptions: managers as “slave drivers,” employees as “cogs,” and work itself as “drudgery.” No wonder so many people feel disconnected. In today’s Leadership Spark, I break down what employee experience really means and why it’s the foundation of the future of work.

We often talk about employee engagement, but before that comes something deeper: experience itself.
