Practical Advice for the Leavers and the Leaders Who Drove Them Away

WARNING: If you’re uncomfortable looking in the mirror, I suggest you pass on this post!

Here we go…

There’s been a lot of “Great Resignation” talk in the past year.

And for a good reason.

The 2020 experience created a backlog of regular job movements. More importantly, 2020 forced many of us to evaluate our current job (and career). Many people found some life reprioritization was necessary.

Two separate realities are driving these job and career transitions. Workers are either: 

1. Running to something, or
2. Running from something.

In this NEW POST, I talk about both of these realities and provide specific advice to leaders and leavers.

Quick Note: The more time I spend coaching leaders and strategically supporting churches and businesses, the more I see a need for execution. There is PLENTY of content out there, but too little implementation. That’s where I might. help you the most.

I don’t have a lot of openings, but I’d be happy to spend a half-day or day with you and your team identifying problems, considering solutions, and designing implementation steps.

Should You Stay Or Should You Go? A Fresh Look at Job Change.

How do you know when it’s time to go?

In the last week, I’ve had 5 conversations with leaders considering a job change.

I understand. I recently changed jobs myself!

As I thought about these conversations and my own job journey, I realized our search for job purpose and fulfillment is found when we exist in a mutually beneficial relationship with our company, church, or organization.

In this NEW POST, I unpack how purpose and fulfillment are connected to our job, and how our job is connected to our purpose and fulfillment.

If you are considering or believe you will eventually consider quitting your job, give this a read first.

How To Never Lose a Staff Member Again!

Is it possible to stop losing staff members?

If you lead an organization of any kind, you’ve most likely experienced the effect of the “Great Resignation.”

Workers are evaluating their employment and changing jobs in record numbers.

Losing staff isn’t a pandemic-created crisis, though. Staff retention is a constant battle for any organizational leader. It seems too often you hire a great young leader only to invest in their development so they can go somewhere else.

It’s frustrating.

In our humanity, we tend to cast blame. Mostly toward others. The exodus of employees is a perfect place for blame casting. “They’re leaving because __________________ (fill in the blank with something that is clearly their fault).

There is an easy way never to lose a staff member again.

Are you ready for it?

It’s foolproof. Always works. You’ll never invest time, resources, and energy on an employee again only to see them take their talents elsewhere.

Here’s the solution to never lose a staff member again…
