This thought-provoking session, featuring Zubin Saxena (Hilton) and Rachana Bahadur (Synchrony India), proved that great Employee Experience is the ultimate business strategy. For these Best Workplaces, building a strong Workplace Culture is the foundation of success.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When asked for the &#8220;secret sauce&#8221; of a top workplace, both leaders highlighted that organizational success, particularly among the Best Workplaces, flows from a deeply human-centric approach. For these companies,&nbsp;Keeping Employee Experience Paramount starts with intentional listening. And, there is also a non-negotiable value system that reinforces the desired Workplace Culture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-synchrony-s-pillars-listening-flexibility-and-trust-nbsp\"><strong>Synchrony&#8217;s Pillars: Listening, Flexibility, and Trust<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rachana Bahadur<\/strong>&nbsp;emphasized that listening to your employees is the first step. Synchrony employs&nbsp;a holistic approach&nbsp;that captures feedback from multiple sources, making employees comfortable enough to share key information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Holistic Listening Ecosystems:<\/strong>&nbsp;This includes formal mechanisms like the&nbsp;Great Place&nbsp;To&nbsp;Work\u00ae\u202fIndia&nbsp;Trust Index\u2122 Survey&nbsp;and informal coffee conversations. Therefore, the goal is to capitalize on every piece of information employees share.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Flexibility and Choice:<\/strong>&nbsp;Synchrony&#8217;s workforce&nbsp;operates&nbsp;from over 5,000 locations in India. This demonstrates that&nbsp;the organization is commitment to providing choice and flexibility.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Manager Connection:<\/strong>&nbsp;Insights from their annual survey revealed that employees perform better when they connect better with managers. This focus on strong connections is core to their successful&nbsp;culture.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hilton-s-foundation-values-and-scientific-hiring-nbsp\"><strong>Hilton&#8217;s Foundation: Values and Scientific Hiring<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatplacetowork.in\/zubin-saxena-hilton-putting-people-first\">Zubin Saxena<\/a>&nbsp;pointed to the company&#8217;s multi-year history, asserting that the &#8220;secret sauce comes from the values that are built by the company.&#8221; Values matter most in the service industry. He explicitly noted the mnemonic for Hilton&#8217;s core values: Hospitality, Integrity, Leadership, Teamwork, Ownership, and Now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Value-Driven Hiring:<\/strong>&nbsp;The hiring process is the first touchpoint where talent understands the&nbsp;culture of the team. Hilton ensures that hard conversations about compensation and roles are not one-sided or purely &#8220;scientific,&#8221; but rather genuine interactions.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Game-Changing Initiatives for Support:<\/strong>&nbsp;Hilton has launched initiatives that focus on empathy and life balance. This reinforce that the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatplacetowork.in\/enhancing-employee-experience-a-millennial-driven-revolution-in-the-workplace\">employee&nbsp;experience<\/a>&nbsp;is a paramount approach that extends outside the office:&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>It&#8217;s&nbsp;Okay&nbsp;Initiative:<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;Explicitly permitting small, human delays (e.g., arriving a few minutes late because of a pet emergency).&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Caregiving Leave:<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;Offering&nbsp;10 days&nbsp;of paid leave per year to care for friends or family.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-can-leaders-nbsp-deal-with-nbsp-high-attrition-by-making-employee-experience-paramount-nbsp\"><strong>How Can Leaders&nbsp;Deal with&nbsp;High Attrition by Making Employee Experience Paramount?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Addressing the challenge of high attrition, especially in people-centric industries like hospitality, Zubin Saxena explained that while compensation matters, the solution is multi-faceted, focusing on human connections and long-term loyalty. This is key to sustaining a&nbsp;Great Place&nbsp;To&nbsp;Work India.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Honoring the Human Side:<\/strong>&nbsp;A human side to&nbsp;business&nbsp;must be honed across all levels. This includes embracing a &#8220;boomeranging&#8221; policy: &#8220;when somebody wants to join us back, we hire them back.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Commitment to the Culture:<\/strong>&nbsp;Attrition is mitigated by having value-driven leadership, a precise hiring process, and a continuous investment in&nbsp;employee&nbsp;experience initiatives (like their global &#8216;Catch Me at My Best&#8217; recognition program). The strength of the&nbsp;workplace&nbsp;culture is the ultimate retention tool.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatplacetowork.in\/for-all-summit\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"286\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greatplacetowork.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/for-all-summit-banner-1024x286.jpg\" alt=\"For All Summit Mumbai 2026\" class=\"wp-image-61054\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greatplacetowork.in\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/for-all-summit-banner-1024x286.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greatplacetowork.in\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/for-all-summit-banner-300x84.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-managing-the-multigenerational-workforce-context-and-purpose-for-gen-z-in-a-strong-culture-nbsp\"><strong>Managing the Multigenerational Workforce: Context and Purpose for Gen Z in a Strong Culture<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatplacetowork.in\/synchrony-rachana-bahadur-gcc-leadership\">Rachana Bahadur<\/a>&nbsp;provided&nbsp;key insights on managing a multigenerational workforce at Synchrony.

This includes celebrating employees (e.g., through recognition programs), having a precise hiring process, and even embracing policies that welcome back former, trusted employees (&#8220;boomeranging&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the For All Summit 2025, the panel&nbsp;on \u201cKeeping Employee Experience Paramount: Learning from India&#8217;s&nbsp;Best Workplaces\u2122\u201d&nbsp;delivered a clear message: The future of work in India is about purpose, not just policies.
