Supercharge the frontline employee experience: AxoniCom LIVE 2021

Posted on: September 8, 2021Updated on: November 24, 2023By: Carol Leaman, CEO

There’s no way to sugarcoat it. People are leaving the frontline in droves. They’re the biggest segment of the workforce, not to mention the face of your brand—and the Great Resignation has them walking away from the stress, frustration and burnout of customer-facing roles.

Given the escalating war for talent, there’s no better time for a Great Rethink about how to help your frontline employees be happier, healthier and more resilient. Luckily, AxoniCom LIVE 2021 is right around the corner. It’s the free, virtual event that’s all about amping up the frontline employee experience. And it’s your fastest route to the guidance, stories and lessons you need to make work on the frontlines more human for your people and more beneficial for your business. Save your seat, mark your calendars and tune in on October 26th!

Get ready to activate the resilience, performance and wellbeing of your frontline

This year, we’ll be taking a deep dive into the most important questions you should be asking right now: how can you attract the best frontline employees, encourage them to stick around longer and give them a work experience that helps them be their best selves? 

They’re big questions, which is why we’re bringing together big thinkers, hands-on doers and captivating storytellers for a laser-focused day about making your frontline employee experience supercharged and super rewarding.

No fluff. Just useful stuff.

We know you’re slammed and the Zoom fatigue is real, so we’ve packed as much as we can into a single day of cut-to-the-chase sessions led by people who really know their stuff.

Here’s a sneak peak of what you can expect:

Ben Nemtin on bucket lists, big goals and making the impossible possible

In this inspiring talk, you’ll hear Ben’s message of radical possibility, learn the #1 thing that holds you back from accomplishing your goals, and uncover a method to unbury your dreams—at work and in life.
