Combatting the 'Great Resignation' and moving towards the 'Great Retention'

While ‘The Great Resignation’ is a catchy term, it doesn’t capture the multitude of factors impacting employee retention. So what is causing so many to leave their job for other opportunities? Rampant stress and the shift to remote work are undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with in light of the pandemic.

With people in the ‘Great Rethink’ phase, leaders need new strategies to move towards ‘The Great Retention.’ Hear Sofia Roman, Vice Board Chair at WriterCoach Connection, and Anica Solis, Human Resources Manager at Expert Marketing Advisors, discuss the strategies leaders can implement to move away from the Great Resignation and towards the Great Retention.
