Kincentric 2023 Research Reveals the Power of Consistency in Employee Experience
Employees are 5X more engaged when the work experience is consistent and cohesive across multiple elements. Yet only 42% of employees globally have a consistent experience. Therein lies a missed opportunity.
CHICAGO, July 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The latest research by Kincentric, a Spencer Stuart company focused on improving leadership impact by unlocking the power of people and teams, identifies a number of compelling business outcomes that can be achieved when organizations deliver a consistent and cohesive employee experience (EX) across the organization. The Global Employee Experience Trends 2023 Report reveals that employee engagement has plateaued over the last five years, and CEOs and CHROs must now shift their approach to EX if they want to accelerate business outcomes through their people.
The study, backed by extensive data from over nine million respondents across 2500 organizations, 162 countries and 62 industries, emphasizes the need for leaders to act on employee experience more holistically, with consistency of experience emerging as a key factor in driving business impact. In addition to consistency, which is achieved when multiple core experience elements create similar positive perceptions across employees, the report also outlines the importance of the alignment of EX to culture and business strategy, as well as endorsement by the C-suite. The data indicates that leading organizations are enjoying notable advantages in terms of employee engagement, retention, financial performance and customer satisfaction as a result of this groundbreaking new approach.
Key findings of the research include:
- Ratings of customer satisfaction and financial performance are over 2X higher when the work experience is consistent, yet almost one third (29%) of employees have a highly inconsistent experience, with significant negative impact on engagement and business outcomes.
- Employee engagement is 5.5X higher when EX is aligned to culture and strategy, yet only 36% of organizations have indicators that all three elements are truly aligned.
- Nearly half (49%) of employees feel their employers are failing to provide the employee experience they were promised.
- Senior leaders have 6X the impact on the consistency of EX compared to managers, demonstrating their critical role in bringing this to life.
In addition, Kincentric’s 2023 report indicates employees have increased expectations regarding their day-to-day work experience, and while employees have expressed more positivity around things such as long-term career aspirations and virtual work arrangements, there has been a decline in measures around inspirational leadership, organizational values and support and connection.
According to Jeff Jolton, Managing Director of Research and Insights at Kincentric, leaders looking to drive exceptional business results should focus on the transformative power of a consistent and cohesive EX, instead of solely measuring employee engagement as an outcome. “Organizations must take a fresh, holistic and highly intentional approach to drive greater consistency in their EX – which is not about providing the same experience for everyone, but instead, striving to ensure employees have the same positive perception of the work experience,” Jolton says. “The reality is that the majority of organizations globally are not providing the level of consistency required to translate EX into critical business outcomes and are missing a huge opportunity to unlock the full potential of their people and create competitive advantage.”

A new bill introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, known as the Blockchain Integrity Act, seeks to address concerns surrounding the use of cryptocurrency mixers and tumblers. The proposed legislation aims to regulate these privacy-enhancing tools, which are often used to obscure the origins of cryptocurrency transactions.
The bill, if passed into law, would impose strict regulations on the operation of cryptocurrency mixers and tumblers within the United States. These tools, which allow users to mix their funds with those of other users to obfuscate the transaction trail, have raised concerns among law enforcement agencies and regulators due to their potential use in money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit activities.
Under the Blockchain Integrity Act, operators of cryptocurrency mixers and tumblers would be required to register with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) regulations. Failure to register or comply with these requirements could result in significant penalties, including fines and imprisonment.
The proposed legislation also seeks to empower law enforcement agencies to investigate and prosecute individuals and entities that operate unregistered cryptocurrency mixers and tumblers. By enhancing regulatory oversight and enforcement capabilities, the bill aims to safeguard the integrity of the blockchain ecosystem and prevent the illicit use of cryptocurrencies.
However, critics argue that the Blockchain Integrity Act could stifle innovation in the cryptocurrency space and infringe on individuals’ privacy rights. They contend that while cryptocurrency mixers and tumblers can be used for illicit purposes, they also serve legitimate privacy-enhancing functions, such as protecting users’ financial privacy and security.
The introduction of the Blockchain Integrity Act reflects growing concerns among policymakers about the potential risks associated with cryptocurrencies and their use in illicit activities. As lawmakers continue to grapple with these issues, it remains to be seen how the regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies will evolve in the United States and around the world.

The government-owned KfW Bank, based in Germany, is delving further into its plans to issue digital bonds leveraging blockchain technology. This move underscores the institution’s commitment to exploring innovative financial solutions in the digital age.
The proposed digital bond issuance is poised to mark a significant milestone for KfW, as it seeks to embrace the transformative potential of blockchain technology. By tokenizing bonds on a blockchain platform, KfW aims to streamline the issuance process, enhance transparency, and optimize operational efficiency.
One of the key advantages of digital bonds lies in their potential to reduce the reliance on intermediaries and streamline the entire bond lifecycle. Through blockchain-based tokenization, KfW aims to automate various aspects of bond management, including interest payments and maturity settlements, thereby reducing the need for manual intervention and minimizing operational costs.
Moreover, digital bonds have the potential to enhance liquidity in the secondary market, allowing investors to trade bonds seamlessly on digital asset exchanges. This increased liquidity could attract a broader range of investors, thereby diversifying KfW’s investor base and potentially lowering borrowing costs.
In addition to the issuance of digital bonds, KfW is also exploring the integration of blockchain technology into other areas of its operations. By leveraging blockchain for various use cases, such as trade finance and supply chain management, KfW aims to unlock new efficiencies and drive greater transparency across its ecosystem.
Overall, KfW’s foray into blockchain-based digital bonds underscores its commitment to innovation and its recognition of the transformative potential of blockchain technology. As the institution continues to explore and implement blockchain solutions, it is poised to stay at the forefront of digital innovation in the financial sector.
