The modern HR landscape is rapidly evolving, and at the heart of this transformation is the pursuit of exceptional Employee Experience (EX).
EX is not only a key driver of employee satisfaction, retention, and productivity, it is also a strategic advantage that enables organizations to attract and retain the best talent in the market. As a result, HR leaders are increasingly seeking innovative AI-based solutions to make EX a reality in their own organizations.
According to the latest Zendesk EX Trends Report, “81% of employee service leaders believe AI enables employees to handle complex tasks effectively, while 79% think it enhances their competitive advantage.”
Couple this with the rise of Generative AI (GenAI) and its ability to transform how HR teams deliver personalized and engaging experiences to employees, and organizations are left with a need to foster better employee interactions to keep pace in the market.
Capgemini and Zendesk’s strategic partnership delivers all of this to HR teams by combining Capgemini’s strategy and transformation expertise with Zendesk’s cutting edge technology. Ultimately delivering effective and empathetic HR solutions to clients, that ensure employees feel valued and supported, leading to increased satisfaction, retention, and productivity rates across any organization.

The benefits of this transformation are manifold, as they impact not only the efficiency and effectiveness of the HR function, but also the overall performance and culture of the organization:
• Organizations that leverage Capgemini IPO solution can expect to see a significant reduction in operational costs, through the value and optimization it delivers to HR processes through its GenAI capabilities
• Additionally, a transformed HR function also means a more engaged workforce, with employees benefiting from more personalized and seamless interactions with HR, leading to higher employee satisfaction and retention rates which are critical in today’s competitive talent market
• While a transformed HR function enables organizations to become more agile and responsive to the changing needs and expectations of their employees, customers, and stakeholders. By leveraging data and analytics, organizations gain insights into their workforce and talent trends and can leverage them to make informed decisions and drive innovation.
