At Workleap, we believe that strong employee experiences stem from three core HR actions:
- Understand how your employees feel to make them feel heard.
- Help managers to connect their teams and drive them to perform.
- Develop your employees, grow their careers, and help them deliver for your business.
HR work should be human work, supplemented by the right tools.
It sounds simple (and appealing, no?), but the reality is, finding a simple software solution to unify and streamline this work is like finding a needle in a haystack.

According to HR.com's State of Today's HR Tech Stack and Integrations 2024 report, 37% of respondents are juggling five to eleven (or more) paid HR solutions in their tech stacks. Your job is certainly complex — but the last thing you need is to manage endless tools and increase costs.
Workleap's employee experience platform brings the simplicity you're looking for — one solution to unify and streamline everything you need understand your people, connect teams, drive performance, and develop careers.

A main takeaway from the HR.com report is that employee experience is the top priority that businesses want to address with their tech stack. Over half of respondents don't have any capabilities at all!
We know you know it's time to boost your employee experience. And here's how you do it.
Understand your people. Make them feel heard.
Listening is a basic human skill — but in the HR context, it's taken to a whole new level.
Continuous employee listening involves:
- Providing a safe space for employees to answer questions and provide feedback
- Acknowledging and analyzing employee responses
- Actioning on employee feedback and communicating changes
Ensuring your people feel heard is a key element of employee listening. As McKinsey senior partner, Carolyn Dewar, says: “You need to genuinely listen and learn, because the organization will sense if you are asking questions but not interested in the answers.”
While there are many moving parts, continuous listening should be top priority because it goes hand in hand with one of HR's key metrics, employee engagement. In fact, highly engaged employees are three times more likely to say they feel heard at their workplace (92%) than highly disengaged employees (just 30%).
Good news is, there are tools out there that help you collect constant feedback, regardless of location or time zone.
How Workleap helps amplify your listening skills
In a recent Workleap webinar, we brought in HR experts to break down effective listening. (Here's the link to the guide they created for attendees.)
During the webinar, we talked about the how: How can HR leaders hear and analyze the perspectives of hundreds (or thousands) of employees? Their answer? Find yourself a really good survey and feedback tool.
Cue: Workleap Officevibe’s engagement surveys and anonymous feedback.
Both tools offer a safe space and an easy user experience to increase employee participation rates, which means greater insights for you! More recently, we updated our pulse survey tool to enable flexible listening. Now, you can deactivate or add custom questions to help you measure what matters to your organization.
My team and I enjoy using Workleap Officevibe because we can instantly view our department's engagement temperature while continuously addressing learning and implementing strategies based on employees' voices.

To close the loop, we recommend sharing updates with your people on what you're hearing and doing to address their needs. Open communication is key!
Connect teams and drive performance
Patrick Lencioni, author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable, captures the power of alignment and connection perfectly when he wrote:
“If you could get all the people in an organization rowing in the same direction, you could dominate any industry, in any market, against any competition, at any time.”
When your people are connected, you’re a force to be reckoned with. Without this, the business goes nowhere. People work inefficiently. Decisions are made more slowly. Alignment ensures everyone works in lockstep. And that can make a big difference on revenue.
What can you do, as an HR leader of a hybrid organization, to connect your teams from the comfort of your home office? Read on.
How Workleap helps you connect and drive performance
When you crack the code for driving alignment, you'll discover endless opportunities. There are many ways to get individuals and teams together and moving in the same direction.
One way is through performance management. Once organizational goals are defined, then all other individual and team goals can feed this North Star.
The reality is, however, that many HR pros are struggling to find a performance management solution that blend the flexibility needed to adapt to changing needs with the simplicity and user-friendliness that fosters widespread adoption and efficiency.
With our new Workleap Performance product, you can finally have a flexible and customizable framework to build performance cycles that fit like a glove. You can easily customize questions and evaluation criteria that align with your organizational goals, mission, and values — while still ensuring a consistent and fair process across managers and teams.
Another way to align people — that's especially valuable for hybrid or remote workforces and incredibly easy to implement — is by helping people connect with the right collaborators across their company. A tool as simple as a dynamic org chart and employee directory can foster faster relationships by showing who you need to speak with to progress your work.
With Workleap Pingboard you can instantly improve alignment by fostering connections between employees, streamlining resource planning, and improving internal communications.
Foster continuous learning and development
Employees care about learning, development, and growth opportunities. This isn't new news.
We've seen the data, too. When an organization provides these opportunities, great talent flocks and they stick around. According to the LinkedIn Workplace Learning Report 2024, organizations with strong learning cultures have a +57% retention rate and +23% internal mobility rate.
Talent development starts from day one and it can be tackled with a strong onboarding process. Fresh training and courses will keep people engaged and growing.
But we know the behind-the-scenes work of an L&D program — planning, managing, and tracking — can be time-consuming, hard to scale, and frustrating to maintain.
How Workleap helps you develop talent at scale
The secret to scaling your learning, development, and growth programs is leveraging AI, tried-and-tested templates, and other tools that remove the heavy lifting, so you can focus on the big picture: building a culture of continuous learning.
Workleap Onboarding, Workleap LMS, and Workleap Skills all offer templates, automation, and AI to streamline manual admin processes and reduce busywork.
Need to create new safety training? Hop into Workleap LMS and leverage AI to create a course outline in minutes with a few simple prompts. Want to integrate this course into your new hire's onboarding plan that you just built in Workleap Onboarding? Easy peasy!
Unifying these product experiences isn’t just great for you — it also helps new hires transition smoothly from onboarding to role-specific training.
When onboarding, training, and career plans are easier to create and manage, you'll see higher engagement — from your HR team, managers, SMEs, and employees.
