We’re excited to announce the Employee Experience Board will now be known as the Culture & Experience Board
This change reflects how the role of today’s workforce leaders is evolving. Employee experience is no longer a standalone discipline. Organizations are asking leaders to align culture, workforce experience, organizational change, and workforce performance to drive business outcomes.
Across member conversations, surveys, and industry trends, we’ve seen responsibilities expand well beyond employee listening and engagement. Leaders are navigating AI adoption, workforce transformation, manager effectiveness, retention, organizational culture, and change at a scale few anticipated just a few years ago.
The new name reflects that reality.
Why Now
The decision is grounded in both member feedback and broader market dynamics.
Organizations are asking culture and experience leaders to solve increasingly complex workforce challenges while operating with leaner teams, tighter budgets, and higher expectations. The work is no longer simply about measuring engagement or improving moments that matter. It’s about helping organizations successfully adapt, perform, and grow through continuous change.
At the same time, the roles leading this work are evolving. More organizations are creating leadership positions focused on culture, workforce transformation, organizational effectiveness, and future of work, while many employee experience leaders are taking on these responsibilities as part of an expanded mandate.
The Culture & Experience Board reflects how these responsibilities have converged.
What’s Staying the Same
While the name is changing, the core of our community remains the same. The Culture & Experience Board will continue to provide:
- A confidential, vendor-free environment for candid peer conversations
- Practical discussions focused on real-world workforce challenges
- Trusted relationships with senior leaders from the world’s largest organizations
- The same dedicated leadership team and high-touch member experience
Employee experience remains a foundational part of the community. Topics such as employee listening, lifecycle strategy, journey design, measurement, and governance will continue to be central to our conversations.
What’s Expanding
The new name also signals a broader evolution in the community’s focus. Members will see expanded conversations around topics including:
- Organizational culture and workforce transformation
- AI adoption and organizational readiness
- Manager effectiveness and leadership capability
- Workforce productivity and retention
- Organizational effectiveness and change adoption
- Workforce analytics and business outcomes
As organizations continue to transform, these conversations are becoming inseparable from employee experience itself. Our goal is to help members connect these disciplines rather than address them in isolation.
Members will also benefit from broader peer perspectives as the community welcomes leaders responsible for culture, organizational effectiveness, workforce strategy, transformation, and related functions.
A Community Built for the Way Leaders Work Today
Ultimately, the move to the Culture & Experience Board is about better reflecting the work our members are already doing.
It aligns with how organizations are approaching workforce strategy.
It aligns with the conversations already happening inside our community.
And it aligns with the growing expectation that culture and workforce experience leaders play a central role in organizational performance.
For current members, this evolution reinforces the value they’re already receiving while expanding the conversations that matter most. For future members, it signals a community designed for the full scope of modern culture and workforce leadership.
Join the Community
As organizations navigate AI, workforce transformation, and constant change, leaders need more than research and best practices. They need practical insight from peers solving the same challenges.
The Culture & Experience Board brings together senior leaders responsible for culture, workforce experience, and organizational transformation in a confidential, vendor-free community where they can ask difficult questions, learn what actually works, and make better-informed decisions.
If you’re leading culture, workforce experience, organizational effectiveness, or workforce transformation, this community was built for the work in front of you.
