Our COO Tom Philpott had a meaningful discussion with the Globe and Mail around talent retention and how more personal interactions, like one-on-one weekly meetings and more casual chats might enhance the kind of positive work environment we all crave.
As workplaces change people’s expectations tend evolve and not for profits that operate within the technology sector must keep a close eye on retention trends, as it can be particularly challenging to find good talent. In a modern world, modern style reviews should be more a learning dialogue as opposed to a performance review.
Tom said: “The increase in remote work has brought on new challenges for some workers, while removing the opportunity for more casual face-to-face chats where a manager might learn more about someone’s home life or get a sense for how they’re coping. It’s important to schedule time to make sure those conversations still happen on a regular basis.”
