The Most Effective, Overlooked Solution to Retention and Engagement
Companies of all sizes are struggling to keep great talent, employees are experiencing burnout at unprecedented levels and recruiting teams cannot keep up with volume of hiring to fill all of the openings. So what if companies hopped off the merry-go-round of talent and solved for root cause?
While we would never suggest that a single solution will solve for all of a company’s people pain points, there is a solution that begins to address these pain points in an ongoing, sustainable manner. It is the most effective yet overlooked, under-resourced, least supported, and undertrained resource in most companies.
During this webinar, we will explore the many constraints and ways of operating within companies that inhibit attracting, keeping and engaging great people. We will talk straight about what is rewarded and recognized. We will uncover how we get in the way of what we say we want. We will look at what we continue doing, even though we know it isn’t working to address our challenges. Most importantly, we will look at tangible, actionable, and practical ways to cultivate high performing teams and awesome people leaders for remote and hybrid work environments.
