About
In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help More
I love, love, love Korn Ferryโs research, and the Future of Work Trends 2022: A New Era of Humanity report does not disappoint. One of the best quotes from page 6 is,
Iโm cheating a bit. Last week I promised to post 3 things that I found inspiring every Friday. Today Iโm posting 20.
Last night I attended Consult Australiaโs 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 loved this article about the things companies get wrong when writing job descriptions. I only disagree with their first point. A long job description/job ad isnโt necessarily a bad thing. Iโve helped clients write very lengthy but VERY compelling job descriptions that vividly describes the company culture and values, outlines what the prospective candidate can achieve in the role and what they need to bring to the table (innate abilities and strengths) to be successful.

In fact, one of the best testimonials Iโve ever gotten came from Mike Saxton, who said,
A few months ago, I was leading a training session, and I mentioned the KISS Principleโฆand 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.
According to the most recent research by Gallup, 85% of the global workforce is disengaged. That stat that has not moved in well over a decade and COVID has not seemed to impact it at all.
In the US Gallup saw a historic rise in engagement scores shortly after COVID โ followed by an equally historic fall.
Yesterdayโs post โ https://lnkd.in/gHs_rUW provided a calculator to help you figure out how much you were losing in productivity for every member of your team who is disengaged.
I had a comment on that post asking, โWhy are they disengaged?โ
I had a great time speaking to Ben OโShea on The West Australianโs The West Live show about what really drives people to change jobs.
Like in all booms, companies within WA are losing great people for the allure of a high pay packet working in a FIFO environment. Can leaders do anything to stop this from happening (spoiler alert โ yes!).
Why do people look for other roles (spoiler alert โ despite what most leaders think, itโs rarely about money)?
