People often think that employee retention is solely about rules and higher salaries. But the reality is that it's all about relationships. When you invest in your team, they invest back in your business. Training empowers them to grow, while kindness inspires them to stay. The real secret to leadership? It's not about control, but about connection. Start building a culture where people don't just work – they thrive. #leadership #people #inspiration

Succession planning is a skill that provides quite a bit of relief for managers and business owners. It also creates engagement among team members in the right ways. Leaning into this skill can truly address stress you might feel on a daily basis when running your business. I highly encourage leaders to attend this.

Many Boards know what needs to be done as it relates to their role within an organization, and why they exist in the first place, but they struggle to align around how to deliver together and in partnership with the executive team, shareholders and/or ownership. The formation of a People Committee is a powerful way to work together with leadership to create impact for the future of the organization. In our work with Boards, we have started to see the impact of People Committees in two ways: 1) ensuring management is held accountable to delivering on strategic people priorities, and 2) elevating future leaders' participation with the Board and on committees as a talent development strategy. https://lnkd.in/gm3ZJqgc
