Can you afford to sit back while your competitors are pursuing new opportunities?
As our economy pulls out of its viral descent and turns its engines back on, a few scenarios are playing out. Sadly, some companies will not survive the downturn. Others are biding their time licking their wounds. And then there are those who are pursuing new opportunities that now exist in the marketplace. What about you? Can you afford to sit back while your competitors are actively pursuing new opportunities? Your future success depends on the quality of your leadership and the employees who follow them. Employees who work for effective leaders stay with the company longer and grow in ability and value. Both will be necessary in the days ahead. In Colene’s book Retention: Key Mindsets That Retain Top Talent, she provides expert insights on developing strong leaders and creating a culture that employees never want to leave. I share these same insights in virtual keynote presentations, virtual leadership development and executive coaching.
