Live Workshop Series
How do organizations recruit, retain and promote talent? McKinsey reports that 58% of employees are considering quitting or changing professions. Employers often assume attrition is because people are looking for a better job, an increase in compensation or better work-life balance. While important factors, the most important reasons cited by employees were not feeling valued by the organization, not being recognized by their manager and not feeling aligned with the organization’s values.
