Product-Led People Experience ⚡️: The future of HR? (with Luke O'Mahoney)
Product-Led People Experience (PX). It’s a fresh, practical approach to HR, based on treating the employee experience like a product, and applying Product/UX thinking to solve organizational challenges and design, test and improve their People Experience.
The results: smashed HR silos, faster, more impactful business wins, and a shift in HR’s traditional role from admin support to strategic business growth driver.
It’s a hot topic for many progressive People leaders, including today’s guest star Luke O’Mahoney. Luke is founder of SapienX, creator of the PX Espresso newsletter/podcast and an all-round Product-Led PX guru.
He joins 7people People & Culture consultants Paul and Florentine to:
💡 Bust the PX Product jargon (it’s really just a mindset shift)
💡 Share his best tips for working product-based NOW
💡 Outline the step-by-step Product-Led PX process cycle
In Luke’s words: If we want to think differently about HR, we need to think differently IN HR. With this episode you can start today!
