Qualtrics and Korn Ferry Announce Significant Expansion of Strategic Partnership

Two leaders in employee experience build upon successes in first year of the partnership to meet evolving employee listening needs

Qualtrics, the leader in employee experience and creator of the experience management (XM) category, today announced with Korn Ferry, a global organizational consultancy, the expansion of their strategic partnership. Over the last 12 months, the firms have worked to seamlessly incorporate Korn Ferry’s proprietary “Engaged Performance” framework and research onto the Qualtrics XM Platform.

Beginning mid-2020, Korn Ferry will provide a seamless migration path for its current clients onto ualtrics EmployeeXM. Korn Ferry joined the Qualtrics Partner Network last year to build a worldwide delivery and advisory service for employee experience with Qualtrics. Since then, Korn Ferry and Qualtrics have designed and implemented employee experience programs for over 100 customers globally. During this time, Korn Ferry acquired significant experience implementing and advising global organizations on using Qualtrics EmployeeXM. The firm also became the first EmployeeXM partner to achieve “accredited” status across North America, EMEA and Asia Pacific, demonstrating the ability to independently implement the Qualtrics platform.
