Senior Corporate Strategist, Lisa Hendrickson, has a firm grasp in Board & Stakeholder Relations, Employee & Labor Relations, Cross-Functional Collaboration, and Developing High-Performing Talent. Below, is her description of the Great Revival Plan and how to integrate this into your company’s employee attraction and retention planning:
Employers are losing a record number of employees not only due to Baby Boomer retirements, but also due to the awakening of employees as a result of the pandemic. Through the pandemic, employees have experienced and recognized what is most important to them in their career lives, their family lives, and what they need and want to support a work-life balance. Today, employees are seeking out employers that provide the flexibility to support their intrinsic needs and wants.
Employees need to know that their employers care about them and they are valued for their contributions. Employees need time for themselves and their families to support a healthy work-life balance; and of course, with this, comes the requirement for employees to receive a fair wage and the security of a benefits package.
In today’s career world, employers can start from within and reflect on WHY employees would want to work in their organization and WHAT they can do to retain valuable employees and recruit top performers. The Great Revival Plan is a play off of what has been coined The Great Resignation and attempts to provide an outlet for employers to step in their shoes, look within, and understand the foundation of WHY and WHAT is important in order to retain valuable employees and recruit top performers.
The Great Revival Plan is an outline of four key components for employers to focus on. The components are (1) Culture (why / need), (2) Work-Life Balance (why / need), (3) Pay (what / want), and (4) Benefits (what / want). These key components will assist employers with transitioning their organizations into a career model which supports a more humanistic approach to being an employer of choice in today’s world, rather than just an employer who offers employees a job.”
