THEMe: Employee engagement and wellbeing

Happy and engaged employees

Today’s employees expect more than pay—they want meaning, flexibility, and wellbeing. But many organisations still rely on outdated engagement tactics that miss what really matters.

At ImpactWork, we help turn employee experience into a strategic driver of retention and growth.
Our approach blends real-time insight, journey mapping, and culture design to build environments where people feel seen, supported, and ready to stay.

Because you don’t fix disengagement with perks.
You fix it by understanding people—and designing systems that work for them.

94%
of Dutch employees consider a healthy work-life balance a top priority. 61% would reject a job offer if it disrupted that balance.
Why?

The Challenge: 

Employee engagement is in crisis.

Disconnection is rising, while stress-related absenteeism and burnout continue to surge—especially in hybrid and remote settings. Traditional HR models can’t keep pace with the complexity of modern work.

Neglecting employee wellbeing comes at a high cost: higher turnover, lower performance, and a declining employer brand. But meaningful engagement isn’t solved by launching one more initiative. It demands a connected, data-driven strategy—rooted in empathy and championed by leadership.

Our approach.

ImpactWork delivers a productized service that enables organisations to embed employee engagement and wellbeing into the core of their people strategy. This isn’t about isolated initiatives—it’s about building a continuous, company-wide Employee Experience Management (EXM) system.

Our structured approach includes: 

Experience journey scan & baseline assessment - We start by uncovering what your employees actually experience—from onboarding to exit. 
Design a measurable EX strategy - Together with your teams, we define experience goals and translate them into tangible KPIs. 
Activate the experience roadmap – We move from insight to execution.
Measure, adapt, and scale – Employee experience is never done. We set up continuous listening loops, behavioural analytics, and experience dashboards. 
‘You don’t build a great company and then take care of your people. You take care of your people, and they build a great company.’

The impact.

True impact is not measured by policies written, but by how people feel at work—and how they choose to show up, stay, and grow.

Clients who work with us experience:

  • Clearer ownership of employee experience across the organisation

  • Greater alignment between leadership, HR, and employee needs

  • Reduced friction across key moments in the employee journey—from onboarding to growth

  • More engaged, energised teams ready to perform sustainably

  • A stronger employer brand grounded in authenticity, not slogans

But perhaps the most important shift is this:
When organisations start listening to their people—and act on what they hear—engagement becomes a system, not a sentiment.
