At the airport in Hamburg at 5 in the morning, traveling to Dallas via Frankfurt. I’m very excited to visit the Oracle HCM World!
Last time I went to this conference was 4 years ago. I had just started my new job in Hamburg and already been given this amazing opportunity, back then in Las Vegas. So my new job started out quite promising and after 4 years now I can say I still love what I’m doing.

In Frankfurt I met my colleague from Oslo, now there is two of us, even more fun! Fun got a little less though as our plane was apparently not fully functional and we were told that the pilot refused to fly. So we had to wait for a substitute, hoping they replace the plane rather than the crew ;) Well, having a direct flight to Dallas we didn’t worry too much. After 3.5 hours of waiting we finally boarded and went off to Dallas. All in all smooth sailing.Read more

Texas welcomed us with sun and pleasant temperatures at 6pm. Getting through immigration took pretty long, as expected, around 8pm we were finally at the hotel which is also the conference venue. Very comfortable. Not much more to report, 6 hours time difference take their toll and resting was first priority.Read more

It’s starting 😃
As one of the speakers in the opening keynote Jacob Morgan presented ‘The Experiential Organization’, very inspiring! His views on employee experience give a lot food for thought.
Jacob claims that looking at employee engagement for improvement potential doesn’t do the trick as we are providing ‘adrenalin shots’ to improve engagement rather than working on the cause. Where engagement is the result, experience is the cause and sustainable, long lasting improvement of employee engagement can only be achieved by focusing on great employee experience. The experience is built out of three blocks which are interlinked and influence each other: physical space (office, working environment), technology (tools, enablers), and culture (values, way of cooperation) - sorry for the blurry picture, or do I need better glasses, again???Read more
