1. Executive Summary
The research throws light on the analysis of the various aspects that aims to bring satisfaction to the customers through implementing the employee development of satisfaction. The research constitutes a survey questionnaire and a literary analysis that establishes the direct mode of relationship between employee satisfaction and its relationship with the customer satisfaction and customer experience development. Additionally, recommendations including the development of healthy incentive schemes and the other motivational sessions for the employees may serve the purpose of the customer satisfaction level development.
2. Introduction
a. Overview of the topic
    This research deals with the different aspects of employee satisfaction and its relation to customer experiences. It is evident that employees are an important part of the organisation and that is the reason why the satisfaction of the employees affects positively on the different aspects of the organisation. In this report, the customer experiences the experience of the Holiday Inn has been analysed to realise the employee satisfaction quotient.
Holiday Inn is a part of the tour and travel industry and that is the reason why the experience of the customers matters the most in this area (Iglesias, Markovic & Rialp, 2019). In the tourism sectors, the customers are handled mostly by the employees of the organisation. That is the reason why the employees should be in a very fresh mind and highly satisfied with the pattern of work they are providing to the customers and organisations both.
    The employees should be very motivated in order to provide good quality works for the organisation. Besides that, the higher authorities of the organisations should be the important support system of the employees. Besides that, the employees can also deal with the different pressure in the organisation, which needs to be mitigated with the help of the organisation.
Besides that, the employees should always get proper incentives so that they can get attracted to the work more. Thus, the employee's satisfaction level can be increased. In the discussed organisation Holiday Inn, there are no prospects for employee satisfaction. They are not given the proper incentives and besides that, their good works are not acknowledged as well, which is very bad for the satisfaction level of the employees (Ngo & Nguyen, 2016). Thus, the employees are not at all satisfied with the different organisational activities and it reflects in the quality of the services. Because of the poor quality of the services, the customer experience with the Holiday Inn is getting poorer day by day, which is not beneficial for the organisation.
    This part gives brief details about the relationship between employee satisfaction and customer interests in Holiday Inn. The different procedures, in which the perspectives of the employees can be known is analysed in this discussion. This research also provides with the objective and the questions that have been focused throughout the discussion.
b. Rationale
In the present scenario, the Holiday Inn is facing different problems regarding customer experiences. The main cause of the degrading customer experience is the less employee satisfaction level within the organisation. The employees of the travel and tourism industry handle the customers in a vast scenario (Boukis, Siamagka, Tabassum & Kastanakis, 2016). If the employee satisfaction level is not mentioned immediately then it can cause severe problems within the organisation and the customer base of the Holiday Inn can be reduced as well.
The Holiday Inn should opt for future growth and development in order to stand out in the travel and tourism sectors. The different types of processes that can be applied for the betterment of the employee's satisfaction will be discussed in the course of this paper. It is very relevant in relation to the topic (Hur, Moon & Jung, 2015). Employee empowerment and employee satisfaction is a very concerning topic for the Holiday Inn.
