Employee experience consulting.

Outstanding employee experience doesn’t happen by chance. At scarlettabbott, our decades of consulting expertise help organisations like yours to curate every moment that matters into an exceptional employee experience.

How you onboard your staff, guide their development and recognise them for their work are just some of the moments that shape the employee experience. Your leadership team and the culture fostered within your organisation both play a role in your people’s overall experience, too.

We bring our experience and behavioural insights to you and then get to know your organisation inside out. We can then help you shape it into a place where your people feel supported and motivated to deliver their best work.

What’s employee experience (EX)?

EX isn’t a traditional HR programme or internal communications. It’s a more holistic view of how your people feel across their full employee journey.

EX is the sum of every interaction an employee has with your organisation. It includes:

Practical elements such as processes and systems
Emotional drivers – connection to your organisation or value and purpose
Cultural elements such as leadership and inclusion.

A good EX is intentional and inclusive, as well as being firmly rooted in your overall business strategy.

Why EX matters now more than ever

Modern employees want more than just a payslip. They want to feel heard, valued and connected to the organisations they work for. In fact, our experience has shown us that these are more than wants for employees nowadays; they’re expectations that set a higher standard for employee experience.

Businesses that invest in EX see:

Stronger retention
Higher engagement
Better wellbeing
Improved performance.

It can be a challenge for businesses to keep up with the expectations of their workforce. That’s where scarlettabbott employee experience consulting helps. We know how to best support organisations like yours to understand what’s really going on – and design experiences to support your people and your performance.

Our EX consulting approach

We’re more than just an employee experience consultancy. We use data-driven creativity to curate bespoke people-first solutions that work for your organisation and its broader goals.

Culture-led strategy

The first thing we do is get to know your culture – inside and out. We use techniques rooted in anthropology and behavioural psychology to map out how things actually work in your business. Then, we use that map to build EX strategies that are relevant and encourage meaningful change, while staying aligned with your core values.

Data-driven insight

We use our special proprietary analytics platform to discover the truth about your current EX. Using feedback tools and surveys, we find out how your employees feel about their employee experience. We then use that performance data to show you where, and how, to take action.

End-to-end journey mapping

Employee experience covers the entire employee lifecycle from hiring to offboarding. We look at every phase, from that initial introduction to growth and recognition, working with you to build a consistent and connected experience, reflecting who you are as a business.

Integrated creative delivery

We’ll bring your EX strategy to life with the help of our in-house creative team. We develop compelling campaigns and work with you to provide the tools and establish the channels needed to communicate and embed change in ways your people can understand and connect with.

Leadership enablement

Great EX starts with leadership. Our Behaviour, Commitment, Action (BCA) model gives your leadership team a clear and practical framework to help them build trust and support their teams authentically. Leadership teams need to think differently and act confidently to instil the right kind of change.

Key areas we support

Our employee experience consultants work with you across all areas of your business. As an employee engagement agency, we’ll support you to create a better EX for your people through:
01 Cultural Anthropology

Cultural anthropology

We explore the stories, rituals and behaviours that shape your workplace culture. This insight helps us design interventions that reflect how your business actually works (not just the way described in your policy documents).

Behavioural science

03 Employer Brand and EVP

Inclusive cultures don’t happen by accident. We support businesses in embedding Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) into their business policies and leadership mindsets. We help you make equity and belonging a lived reality for your people.

05 Reward and Recognition

Reward and recognition

Employees have a better experience when they feel valued and rewarded. We design fair recognition frameworks that motivate performance and encourage a happier culture in meaningful ways.
