Legendary cultures start with a commitment to building a foundation of trust, supporting your employees in their career aspirations, applauding their efforts, and serving a mission that is greater than your company alone. When organizations pay attention to the “little things,” they maintain a higher retention rate, improved productivity, and increased profitability than companies who ignore the niceties that create a positive corporate culture. With Gallup reporting that approximately 68% of the workforce is disengaged or actively disengaged, this clearly is an issue you don’t want to ignore.

It’s no secret. Your best employees have the power to take their skills to your competition. The bottom line is that you are faced with an enormous challenge: keeping your top talent from becoming someone else’s! This trend reaches far beyond just manufacturing. The Gallup organization reports close to 71% of all employees to feel unsupported, detached or disengaged from their current employer. The impact costs US businesses more than $450 billion in lost productivity each year.

With approximately 10,000 baby boomers retiring every day, it’s more important than ever to attract the best employees you can hire while dealing with an ever-shrinking talent pool. Even more critical, is keeping your new hires from leaving after spending substantial time, money, and human resources to get them on board.  With four active generations in the workplace, it’s important to realize that people are wired differently simply based on the year they were born. When you understand how each generation thinks, their relationship to the workplace, and where they place their priorities, it makes life easier for everyone.
