This Type of Work Arrangement Loses Your Top Talent
Retention is always an important issue, but is especially important when considering top talent, those individuals who produce the most at the best quality and are essential to project and organizational success. So we need to keep up with what they value in work arrangements. And it turns out the number one reason that employees leave their employers voluntarily is changing.
If you have been wise enough to be a regular reader of this blog, you will know that for the past many years the number one reason employees leave their employers voluntarily is the employees’ relationship with their managers. Now another reason is becoming reported more important. Because of the growing numbers of working mothers and workers in Gen X and Gen Y in the pool, top talent reports more often that they are leaving because of inflexible work arrangements.
You as project manager have some say over work arrangements no matter what your organizational policies are, so there are adjustments you can make. More tomorrow in my next post.
