“…A pilot study was performed to assess the DEX elements, including intensity of digital tool usability, technology accessibility, training availability, leadership support, organisational culture, and working environment, and to examine the relationship between DEX and employee demographic characteristics like gender, age, education level, work experience, digital literacy, and job tenure in Oman's telecommunications sector (Porkodi et al, 2023a). The results revealed that the usability of digital tools has a disproportionately large effect on the DEX, and all demographic characteristics, with the exception of gender, affect the digital experience of employees.…”

Purpose – The study aims at assessing the effect of digital employee experience on organisational performance, particularly in the telecommunications sector in the Sultanate of Oman, using quantitative and qualitative analysis. Research methodology – The techniques used in this empirical research include scientific literature analysis, correlation analysis, multiple regression, and sentiment analysis. Findings – The results indicate that organisational performance has a higher association with elements of the digital employee experience like work environment, organisational culture, training availability, technology accessibility, digital tool usability, and leadership support and is statistically significant at the 5% level. Also, 80% of respondents were favourable or indifferent about their digital experience. Research limitations – The study exclusively covers Oman’s telecoms industry and six important digital employee experience elements, so additional factors and industries may be examined further. A direct interview may improve findings since self-reported responses from individuals with demanding work schedules may be biased. Practical implications – Telecommunication companies must increase their efforts to engage employees in the use of digital tools and encourage their employees to utilise the different digital technologies. Originality/Value – The study investigated the six elements of the digital experience of telecom employees and its impact on organisational performance with multiple regression and sentiment analysis.
