Should I stay or should I go?
Tips on how to make it easy for your team to re-commit to 2022 with you
Hey there,
The end of the year is a time to reflect for most of us. Questions like “Am I on the right track?”, “Am I growing?”, “Should I stay here or look for something else?” are most probably going through the heads of your team members. Loosing people in times of the Great Resignation is very very easy, workers are done waiting for growth opportunities “are choosing AI over humans for career advice” (recent study by Oracle 10/2021).
So I dug into resources on how to help your team reflect on their career progress and set strong development goals for 2022 and recommit to your team.
