The pandemic-era trend known as the “ Great Resignation ,” where workers are quitting their jobs in search of opportunities amid strong labor demand , is a reality for so many leaders . Consider the following “ best practices ” that can increase the odds that your best people will want to stay on board :
--Stay connected . Consistent communication with every team member must become part of your leadership DNA . It is not a check off the box kind of thing . It is keeping it top of mind and staying engaged .
--Acknowledge your people . Great leaders are vigilant in recognizing when team members succeed . Send an e-mail about someone doing a great job , not just to them but to the entire team .
--Show me the money . Given how many options people have in the marketplace , you ’ ve got to invest the dollars , if you can afford it . No , it is not a guarantee that people will stay , but it doesn ’ t hurt .
--Lead on a two-way street . It ’ s one thing to communicate goals that YOU would like a team member to accomplish , but it is also important that a team member is given the opportunity to tell you what he or she thinks is important .
--Variety motivates . If you do the same thing every day , you are going to feel unmotivated . Smart leaders are constantly looking at a team member ’ s responsibilities and looking for ways to challenge them to get outside their comfort zone .
--Be consistent in your expectations . Communicate to employees exactly what you expect . Changing expectations on a whim and can be frustrating to a team member .
