Rich Kaarlgaard wrote an article for Forbes - on how to beat the great resignation.
MTA takeout from this article is all about building a great culture , flexibility , balance and making it a place where you’re team can learn collaborate and grow!
By definition if people are staying in the workforce, when people resign- they are going to another organisation
❓What type of company are they going to?
❓ How can you make your company the recipient of the brightest and the best?
❓ Are people moving to organisations that are more a culture of Collaboration ?
❓ Are they moving where they can expand their knowledge and learn?
❓ Tech companies are perceived to be the companies of tomorrow - why ?
❓ Do HR companies serve companies well? How can they serve them better
I was discussing Richard’s article with Simon Dewar of BSI Digital Learning , Cassandra Parton of Nexttech Learning and Kala Philip of BSI Learning .
These are some of Richard’s gems that resonated
π Employees are living breathing things with gifted feelings and personalities! They are more than numbers…. And their goals , values needs and desires need to align with yours . They are not machines that work 9-5 40 hours a week with the 1 hour lunch
π Employers offering a work life balance is important - a hybrid distributed workplace that encourages diversity equity and inclusion is important
π Higher education is broken - overpriced for the value it gives. It is a waste of time. Current knowledge and on the job training trumps degrees
π Learning is not a one time certified event!
π The best employees will want to work where they can learn
The best employers will be educators !
Great companies will beat the great resignation every time.
