The Great 'Realisation' - Act fast and build a winning whole-person people strategy

The 'Great Realisation' - Covid has allowed talent/employees to have deep introspection. Historically, organizations have seen hiring as purely transactional - we hire you, you work and we pay you. That's changed, there needs to be an alignment, of purpose, values, and where organisations embrace the whole-self (the new blended work/life persona) of their talent. Compensation is not nearly enough, talent wants to know that all aspects of their life are being looked after, both at work and at home. Companies who embrace this and move from a transactional to whole-person employment strategy will be where we see talent traction. #thegreatrealisation

Reframing Culture

Company values let everyone know your ideal company culture but do they really reflect the truth? Are they meaningful? Do they speak to all staff, no matter what position they sit in? Often it’s the unwritten ground rules that actually constitute a company’s culture.
