history, and they make decisions differently than previous generations. Millennials are alpha-influencers across
generations who don't hesitate to share information about
a good or bad experience. They expect everything about a
brand-from the app interface to the design of the physical
space to the end result-to reflect its values.
According to a survey conducted by Harris Poll for
Eventbrite in 2014, 72 percent of millennials prefer to
spend money on holistic experiences rather than things
or discrete events or transactions. Given all of this, many
industries and companies are paying close attention
to creating positive, millennial-oriented experiences.
Healthcare should, too. For example, ease anxiety without
being condescending, communicate early and often, and
provide the opportunity to choose from options throughout a journey so it's personalized.
TA L E N T A N D F U N D I N G

From a talent acquisition perspective, it's important to remember that millennials value personal alignment with
brands as much as monetary incentives, if not more, when
it comes to choosing their employers. Being part of an organization that sparks positive emotions among customers
via holistic experiences makes any employee proud and offers motivation to put one's best foot forward. Philanthropy works similarly, as great experiences can lead to better
narratives about why an organization is special, which can
lead to an easier time securing dollars from donors.
S T R AT E G I C I N V E S T M E N T

High-quality experiences can give healthcare organizations a
competitive edge, and it's critical to start measuring new customer data points and addressing opportunities concurrently. Evidence shows that thoughtfully designed experiences
also drive brand preference, loyalty, and customer willingness to spend, thus impacting the lifetime value of customer
relationships.
In the digital age, word of mouth can be a major asset in
promoting a brand or an expensive liability if appeasing
unhappy customers or recovering from widespread bad
publicity. Remarkable customer experiences help mitigate
these risks. For these reasons, investing in experience design should be considered as a smart financial decision and
important piece of an overall market strategy. 
