Join us with John Carlson, Garima Gupta, and Brian White on Wednesday, November 10 at 12:00pm (PDT)
Employee resignation has been a central workforce topic in 2021. Countless sources have reported on the increasing trend of a rising "quits rate." In fact, in the month of August in the United States, 4.3 million people reportedly resigned from their roles. That places the quits rate at 2.9% and reflects the highest recorded percentage since the Bureau of Labor Statistics started tracking the numbers.
In a workforce landscape that has shifted rapidly and dramatically in response to globalization, technology adoption, and pandemic response this "great resignation" trend has caused business leaders significant concern.
In this month's Virtual Business Bites, we’ll discuss how innovative companies are exploring how skills development and career tracking programs help improve team culture, increase employee engagement, and reduce the risk of voluntary team resignation. Join us for an exciting conversation with industry experts John Carlson, Garima Gupta, and Brian White.
