The Great Attrition and Organizational Sustainability:
|
||
|
It’s the quitting trend that just won’t quit. People are switching jobs and industries, moving from traditional to nontraditional roles, retiring early, or starting their own businesses. Despite economic concerns, organizations still have 2x the job openings as there are job seekers. Our analysis shows companies are still trying to attract and retain workers using tried and true tactics such as compensation, titles, and advancement opportunities. Those factors are important, but not sufficient. Companies need to broaden their approach to source workers beyond traditionalists – reaching entrepreneurs, caregivers, and retirees – through more flexibility, personalization, mental and behavioral benefits, meaningful work, and supportive environments. Meanwhile, organizational and personal resilience and adaptability remain paramount. Even if organizations are able to fill the roles they need, they then have to create norms and environments where that talent can help the organization handle change, growth, and surprises with adaptability and innovation.

“Life doesn’t get easier or more forgiving, we get stronger and more resilient” - Steve Maraboli
The dictionary defines “sustainable” as being “able to continue over a period of time”, however, we are starting to recognize the impact that the growing complexity of business today has on our personal sustainability. Of course, all this is made worse by the pandemic and other global events as well as personal demands; and that sustaining ourselves requires us to pay attention to our renewal, to our wellbeing and to our resilience.
This 2 hour discussion with allow participants to reflect and share on their own resilience in an intimate setting. It will introduce frameworks from our latest research on resilience and help participants use those for their own renewal.
Through practical and immediately applicable tips, the goal will be for participants to understand their own current level of Resilience, and what they can do to grow this.
