Are you well positioned to attract new team members?
You would no doubt have read about the predicted great resignation.
It is interesting to observe that many articles focus on the potential loss of key team members, and while this may be true, it only represents the negative side of the predicted outcome. The positive side means there are likely many talented people looking to leave their current employer, and in turn potentially join your business.
Accordingly, now is the time to revisit what your business offers to not only existing team members, but also future team members.
In making your business attractive to future team members, consider the following questions,
- Are you considered a “destination” employer in your industry?
- Do you have a dedicated landing page for future team members on your website?
- Do all your team have career plans in place to grow their capabilities and career?
- Do key team members have an experienced and capable coach or mentor?
- Our recruitment process focuses on traits and behaviours first, then skills and experience?
- Our leaders undertake regular coaching and training on people management best practice?
- You continuously improve the skills, experience and capability of your team?
- To quote famous Author, Jim Collins, Do you have the right people on your team “bus”, and are they in the right seats?
It is likely your competitors are aware of the key members in your team, whether they be a member of your sales team or your operations manager.
