Manage episode 479593458 series 3580470
At the 2025 edition of the North American HR Executive Summit series we sat down with Mark Fordyce of Workvivo by Zoom to talk about how a new generation of tools and technologies are changing the way leaders interact with and understand their people. How can HR professionals best leverage these new abilities to improve things like employee job satisfaction, retention rates, skills development, and productivity? We also discussed ways to build better connections between the HR and Finance functions —especially in large organizations— to coordinate and collaborate on impactful projects, demonstrate ROI on some of the soft skills involved in human resources, and make better decisions about how resources are committed to drive positive outcomes. For all this and more, give this episode a listen!

Workvivo by Zoom
Mark Fordyce serves as the Digital Employee Experience Director of Workvivo dedicated to helping clients achieve their employee communications, engagement, and advocacy ambitions. Having started his career in public relations for FleishmanHillard and Weber Shandwick, Mark transitioned to leading IT and consulting efforts at companies like McKesson Corporation to improve the overall employee experience. The best part of working at Workvivo is to witness first-hand how clients manage to transform the way employees feel, getting to 80% or greater engagement. That level of engagement turns employees into advocates, improves the execution of new or changing go-to-market strategies, helps attract and retain top talent for a competitive edge, and improves overall company culture.
