Human Capital Management (HCM) revolves around managing an organization’s human capital—its people. HCM encompasses a broad range of processes such as recruitment, performance management, payroll, learning and development, and employee engagement. The goal of HCM is to optimize the workforce to align with the company’s overall objectives.

In contrast, Human Experience Management (HXM) takes a step beyond these traditional processes by focusing on creating a holistic, people-centric environment. While HCM ensures that employees contribute to organizational success, HXM is about making employees feel valued, supported, and empowered in their roles. HXM acknowledges that employees are not just assets but individuals whose experience at work directly impacts their performance and motivation within the company. 

The key difference lies in the "X" in HXM, which stands for "Experience." This "X" represents a fundamental shift from managing people as resources to genuinely focusing on their experiences at work. A positive employee experience translates into better productivity, higher engagement, and improved retention.  

The Atlas HXM Model: Empowering Employee Experience 

Atlas HXM takes the concept of Human Experience Management a step further by integrating it into the global employment landscape through a direct Employer of Record (EOR) model. Atlas operates a direct EOR model, which means that we fully own and manage our legal entities in over 160 countries, eliminating the need for third-party vendors. This unique model allows us to maintain full control over our clients' global workforces, ensuring consistent and seamless management of their employees' experiences. 

As a leader in HXM best practices, Atlas combines cutting-edge technology with human-led expertise to deliver exceptional employee experiences. The Atlas HXM platform provides employers with the tools they need to manage and support their international teams, no matter where they are located.

Why HXM and the Direct EOR Model Matter
