I had a great time speaking to Ben O’Shea on The West Australian‘s 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 – yes!).
Why do people look for other roles (spoiler alert – despite what most leaders think, it’s rarely about money)?
What do you do if you lose someone that you don’t want to lose? Can you entice them back (spoiler alert – statistically, yes, 20% of the time).

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...
If you think #thegreatresignation is related to Covid or the current skills shortage, think again. This graph from the Bureau of Labor Statistics clearly shows that, with the exception of 2020, people have been changing jobs in increasing numbers since 2009. While this is a US stat, I believe the trend is definitely global.
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...
We change the oil and rotate the tires on our car to keep it from breaking. We call this preventative maintenance. And research shows that regular, meaningful conversations do the same thing for our teams.
Yet so many managers complain they don’t have enough time to do this.
How much time would they save by avoiding problems by having proactive conversations to correct performance or behaviour and to find out what their team needs to be fully motivated, engaged and productive?
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 isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I’ve 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.

I love, love, love Korn Ferry‘s 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,
