Perceptyx’s Activate solution addresses a critical gap in employee experience management by enabling organizations to act on feedback collected from any EX platform. This “Bring Your Own Data” approach ensures that companies can leverage their existing survey data without replacing current systems. The solution offers three deployment models Quick-Start for immediate action, Connected for targeted insights, and Complete for a fully integrated EX workflow catering to diverse organizational needs.
Activate incorporates advanced tools like Intelligent Nudges, AI-Assisted Action Planning, and AI Coach to drive behavior change. Intelligent Nudges, grounded in behavioral science from Perceptyx’s acquisition of Humu, deliver personalized prompts to managers and employees. AI Coach provides real-time, role-specific coaching to enhance leadership and workplace behaviors. Additionally, Custom Learning Links and Nudge Agent allow HR and L&D teams to embed existing training content into nudges, ensuring alignment with organizational priorities.
Data from Perceptyx demonstrates Activate’s effectiveness, with 66% of managers engaging with nudges and teams seeing up to a 12-point increase in engagement scores within six months. These improvements span critical areas such as collaboration, career development, and manager effectiveness. By delivering small, consistent actions, Activate drives large-scale cultural and performance improvements, making it a vital tool for enterprises aiming to retain talent and boost productivity.
The expansion of Activate reflects a growing demand for actionable insights in the EX market. Many organizations struggle with underutilized survey data, leading to missed opportunities in leadership development and culture transformation. As Ross Wainwright, CEO of Perceptyx, stated, “The message we’re hearing from CHROs is clear: ‘We’re listening more, and we have a tremendous amount of data from employees. We know where the most pressing organizational challenges are, but we need a faster, more effective way to help our already stretched managers take action.’” Activate provides a solution by enabling immediate, measurable action.
