· If you can’t find or keep good employees, it’s probably not them.
· The solutions to those problems might be right under your nose.
Too many people work at jobs they just don’t like, for companies that don’t seem to care, and bosses that don’t give them enough quality time. And because they don’t love what they do, they don’t do it with much conviction and passion. With so many jobs available today, that seems like a solution to their despair. But maybe not – maybe many of those open jobs are in companies where those unhappy people work. So, if you’re a manager at a company that is having trouble finding or retaining employees, look around. Do you have exciting and welcoming onboarding and orientation programs? Do you provide helpful new-hire training to your employees. Are there promotional opportunities for your employees? Are there coaching and mentoring programs that your employees take advantage of? Do your managers practice emotional intelligence? Are there effective communications strategies that keep everyone informed and engaged? And are you encouraged to catch your employees doing things right? If you can’t answer yes to all those questions, then the answers to your recruiting and retention problems are right in front of you. Go see your boss and passionately inquire what you can do to help jumpstart these very effective recruiting and retention strategies. The ones that make people love what they do. The ones that can make your employees committed and passionate today.
