  • Knowledge workers entering the workforce expect to have 10-14 jobs by the time they are 38.

In short, the US labor force is going through a significant generational change, with new attitudes towards work and preferences for recognition beginning to influence your ability to retain top performers. While cost control and cost reduction are of primary strategic concern right now, companies that focus on recognition and retention as a critical corporate competency will have a clear competitive advantage in the years ahead.



The Platform to Support any Recognition and Retention Strategy

Every employee wants to be successful in their job, enjoy their work, and be rewarded for top performance. However, different generations prefer managerial direction to be provided in different ways, and want to be recognized in different ways. Understanding this can help you retain critical top performers. Does your recognition and retention strategy take these things into account? Do you have a recognition and retention strategy? Even if you have a strategy, it’s just words without the tools and technology to implement it.
