HYPO NOE: Platform space for employee experience

HYPO NOE was able to successfully defend its place on the podium at the renowned Employee Experience Champion Award 2024 and was the only winner from last year to secure its place on the podium again. With increased competition, this was possible through a significant increase in HYPO NOE’s Employee Experience Index value. “We don’t leave employee experience to chance, but rather shape it actively and always together with our employees – because we know that this is the key to higher commitment, better customer satisfaction and our entrepreneurial success,” explains Petra Fritscher, Head of People & Culture at HYPO NOE.

Working moments that count

HYPO NOE started its Employee Experience Journey in 2022 and has now achieved a podium place in the Employee Experience Award for the second time. HYPO NOE Employee Experience Manager Johannes Muhr explains: “The key to a successful employee experience is that every colleague does something to create positive experiences in our working environment. This is the only way we can promote long-term commitment and be successful together.” This is why the feedback and suggestions for improvement from employees are so valuable. Muhr and Fritscher are convinced: “We are actively working to understand these moments and then develop suggestions for solutions and improvements together with the employees.”

What is Employee Experience?

Employee experience describes the entirety of the experiences that employees have with a company. It includes all interactions and experiences that employees have with a company. The aim of a positive employee experience is to promote employee engagement. Because employees with higher engagement are more likely to be productive, innovative and committed to the company’s goals and success. Employee experience is therefore increasingly becoming the focus of modern employers, who understand that employees with an emotional commitment to the company and its goals are the key to long-term corporate success.
