Paper title: Employee Experience and the rise of Compassionate Capitalism
The pandemic accelerated several trends, not least of all our more conscious attitude towards the world. There is a definite, emerging, and long term socially conscious trend that is capturing the minds of your employees. The idea of compassionate capitalism is growing all over the world and many organisations are now focussing on the triple bottom line; financial, environment and social results. But employees too want to see how their organisation is becoming a positive force in the world.
Buoyed by the pandemic, pharma is in a unique position to capture the hearts of a more conscious employee and with ninety percent of workers are willing to earn less money to work for a more meaningful organisation, the timing couldn’t be better.
