Daniel J. Edelman Holdings
Vice President, Employee Experience Practice (Finance)
How do you manage transformation in an era of constant, disruptive change? Edelman's Employee Experience team believes that for transitions to be successful, we must reach the hearts and minds of employees to bring them along the journey with an equal mix of art and science. The science consists of the processes, tools and behavior analytics to reach the right person with the right experience at the right time. The art is the storytelling and culture shaping expertise that accelerates and amplifies that journey and makes it stick. Together, they create a compelling experience that shifts mindsets and behaviors to drive long-term impact.
Our work shapes three critical elements of the employee experience:
• Culture: Activating new ways of working to support the organization's core purpose
• Change: Leading the organization through the upheaval and uncertainty of transformation
• Communications: Engaging and connecting employees in a modern, employee-centric way
As part of Edelman's U.S. practice, you'll be part of a close-knit, collaborative network of team members, some of whom have been working together for more than a decade, while others have brought their unique skills and abilities more recently.
