Building a brighter future, together! ✨ October was all about connecting with top talent and building a more inclusive workplace. Here's how: - We engaged with over 5,200 potential candidates through virtual career fairs, workplace tours and a government-led job fair, helping connect displaced workers with new opportunities. - One of our talent leaders spoke about workplace ethics to 200 students at a leading university's tech webinar. - We invested in our sourcing leaders by sending them to an inclusive leadership workshop, equipping them with the skills to support people of all backgrounds and abilities. #MicroSourcing #biggerbolderbetter

As the Duluth Area Chamber’s young professionals initiative, Fuse Duluth has spent the past 20 years dedicated to connecting and empowering emerging leaders in the community. Committed to professional development, networking, and community involvement, Fuse aims to recruit and retain young talent as well as cultivate the next generation of business leaders in Duluth. With this mission in mind, Fuse Duluth is proud to present a new event focused on the professional development of local university students: The "Ready for the Real World" Series.

“Leadership is producing results.” - JM Leon The post COVID-19 work environment is a unique one. Certainly not the same as the one I came into 25 years ago. Leaders have to think different and creatively about how we recruit and retain employees. Coming here a little over 2 years ago to a division that was hovering around 30% vacancy, we embarked on a new approach to recruit and retain employees. Forward facing, community outreach. Attending recruitment job fairs and advocating the work we do. Educating young people about a great career in local government and JCW. We began the work of a unique award winning career progression plan, that builds on the County’s leadership philosophy and approach. Combine these things with the work County leadership has done with salaries and benefits, and we have ourselves results. This week, all our line cleaning/inspection positions are staffed. We have offers out to candidates for all our other vacancies other than 1. Together, we have shrank our nearly 30% vacancy from 2 years ago to < 3%. All of this while implementing a new leadership approach into a division of 164 people with my O&M leadership team. We raised the bar along the way. Results. Here is a photo of our foreman Brian walking our new employee Kendall through some on boarding items. I snapped this photo because I had nothing but smiles in my head. #leadership #results #JobsNotFinished #JCW #ForTheW

One of the most popular notions today is 'leadership'. How to do it well, how to improve and adapt it to ever changing reality. We must however also cover the topic of 'FOLLOWERSHIP'. How to properly fit in, empower our leaders in finding solutions and making the right decisions. I will see You soon in Tricity for the first annual 'Follow the leaders' conference by Pro Progressio. Join us there. Become the improvement You want to see. Excel! #TricITy Invest in Pomerania #Wecaremore Wiktor Doktór Dymitr Doktór

🌟 In 2022, we launched the KBR Pathways program, which is an internal career fair, in direct response to feedback from our People Perspectives Survey. Employees wanted to learn more about opportunities within the organization so over the past year and a half, 13 different business leaders presented overviews of their business, skillsets required, and open job opportunities across KBR. We are excited to transition this program to focus on "Skills of the Future". Moving forward, each Pathways session will cover different skillsets needed to grow, develop and advance your career at KBR, Inc.. There will be robust discussions, resources on how to prepare for the future, and information about job opportunities within KBR.  In this session, I will be facilitating a roundtable style conversation with KBR leaders that will cover #corecompetences and #behaviors of KBR leaders. Our panel members will share about their personal career journey and lessons learned on their path to leadership. Calling all KBR, Inc. employees! Elevate your career journey by joining us for insightful discussions on essential skills. Don't miss this opportunity to grow and advance your career path. 🚀 As always, if you are interested in career opportunities with us, please visit our careers page at https://lnkd.in/gh98shEe, or follow us at KBR Careers!
