How to Keep Your Best People from Walking Out the Doorigniteglobal.com
The silly season is upon us. A crazy time of year made even crazier by what’s happening with our workforce. You’ve probably seen the stats:🔹 Over 4 million people are resigning from their jobs in the US each month (and have been since February) - some without another job to go to.🔹 26% more Australians changed .... read more

I’ve been traveling for a conference and to spend my birthday/4th of July with my sister and best friend.
I love to spend my birthday in the US because it’s the day before the 4th of July – which makes it a 2-day celebration, in the middle of summer – with fireworks!
Unfortunately, the following weekend I attended the National Speakers Convention in Nashville, where I promptly got Covid and spent the next weeks isolating instead of going on a road trip with my best friend. The times we live in!

I’ve often said that Covid accelerated other workforce trends that had been building for years. I think what we see with this graph is the result of...
Friday funny. You’ve heard of the KISS Principle, right? Keep It Simple Stupid (or I prefer Silly). Now I’d like to introduce the KSS Principle!
KISS Principle
My clients have told me for years that one of my superpowers is breaking down complex concepts and making them simple.
In fact, one of the best testimonials I’ve ever gotten came from Mike Saxton, who said,
A few months ago, I was leading a training session, and I mentioned the KISS Principle…and one of the participants said, you should rename it the KSS Principle for Kim Seeling Smith. We had a good laugh, but now I find myself saying it frequently.
I’m cheating a bit. Last week I promised to post 3 things that I found inspiring every Friday. Today I’m posting 20.
Last night I attended Consult Australia‘s FutureNet awards night for NSW (magnificently convened by Linda Gaunt). It was a COVID-safe event held in the Grand Ballroom of the ICC in Sydney. There were only 30 people in attendance including 19 of the 20 participants, all 4 of the mentors and the facilitators, like me, who...

I’m going to be unpacking 9 Keys to Avoid the Great Resignation (reverse engineered from over 5,000 exit interviews)…and unveiling some new (and dare I say a bit controversial) insights around this model.
