Attracting and retaining talent requires more than a competitive salary or compelling benefits. The next generation of top-notch talent demands opportunities for growth and learning, transparent advancement paths, and a culture of psychological safety and inclusivity.
Today’s most successful companies are able to meet talent demands by offering the following:
High-Touch Benefits
Employees are leaving their organizations without another offer in hand because of uncaring leadership, a lack of meaningful work, and a shortage of support for their well-being. Cultivating these next-generation values through programs like those offered by Keystone Partners is essential to your success.
Career Development
A lack of career development is the number one reason why employees leave their positions. Providing employees with career and leadership development as well as clear opportunities for advancement is a crucial retention strategy.
Outplacement Strategy
After a staff reduction, voluntary attrition often increases as the employees who remain lose their trust in management. A well-developed outplacement strategy utilizing services such as those offered through Keystone Partners, intercepts this loss of organizational morale.
A Constructive Culture
Eighty-eight percent (88%) of applicants believe that a healthy work culture is integral to their success. Building this culture begins with a well-developed leadership suite that can translate purpose into behaviors.
An Inclusive and Diverse Work Environment
Many leaders in HR find it difficult to hold their organization’s leadership accountable for diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging goals. But the most successful companies harness a spirit of DEIB to attract and retain talent.
