OUR TALENT AND LEADERSHIP LANDSCAPE HAS EVOLVED

Organizations that get out in front of this evolution will win the war for the best talent. Our workforce is demanding new levels of connectedness to answer deep, introspective questions like “Why am I here? What is my impact?” Exchanging work in a job for a paycheck is no longer enough.

FINDING YOUR FORTE EXEMPLARY LEADERSHIP ON PURPOSE DIRECTORS’ RETREAT

OUR TALENT AND LEADERSHIP LANDSCAPE HAS EVOLVED

The best talent wants to know ‘how do I bring my best to serve not only my own purpose but the aligned missions and purpose of the team and company?’ And detrimental consequences hang in the balance as organizations work to get this right. This calls organizations to invest in their leaders and talent in new ways.

FINDING YOUR FORTE EXEMPLARY LEADERSHIP ON PURPOSE DIRECTORS’ RETREAT

OUR TALENT AND LEADERSHIP LANDSCAPE HAS EVOLVED

They now need to know what inspires them to bring the best they have to offer and connect it to their company mission and strategy – or they risk losing their best leaders, disengaging an emerging new generational workforce and perhaps underperforming in the market. The sobering reality is that companies that aren’t actively igniting purpose for their leaders and talent are slowly losing their connection, engagement and inspired performance in ways that don’t show up in exit interviews and employee satisfaction surveys.

LIGHTNING DESIGN JAM

Creative problem solving and clear decision-making are what separates good designers and managers from the best; the problem with anything that requires creative and critical thinking is that it’s easy to get lost, lose focus, and fall into the trap of having useless, open-ended, unstructured discussions.
