Posted By: Helen Rhodes Date: April 2024 In our ever evolving economic and business landscapes both job security and retaining talent are top priorities. Working with clients and candidates’ security appears to be the common thread – but just how is this achieved? Our clients achieving rewarding and positive work cultures are retaining their talent and planning for the future. Career Development – whilst recognising skills gaps and investing in training and development these organisations are not only preparing and succession planning but retaining talent by creating growth and career development. This is happening via formal training in-house or with external parties as well as mentoring all paving the way for growth. Positive Cultures – this is cultivated by many factors and so often the key area to retaining and attracting top talent. Some areas companies are achieving this are - ensuring staff are being recognised and rewarded – even simple acts of appreciation can go a long way. Not only does it create positivity but confidence to strive for mutual successful outcomes.
- Communicating in all areas of the business – being transparent with goals for individuals as well sharing bigger picture team and company goals. Ensure the company wins are shared as well as the challenges and possible hurdles ahead.
Set a good example – By Management embodying strong ethics, sharing company goals and maintaining a positive work culture via engagement and open communication, confidence is instilled. Ensuring your team has the right tools and channels to communicate openly, not only adding to wellbeing but creating a space for shared ideas and creativity. While uncertain and fluctuating economic times can create insecurity by adopting these strategies many organisations are not only coping with the turbulence but are continuing to thrive! |
