The Great Resignation Is Not Dead, Just Dormant
It is not an effect of a pandemic rather the start of a new era
How do I know? I am a coach and I run groups, we talk.
This is not the ‘I wanna take quit my miserable job’ that people shout like a broken record and never actually do.
But people with real actions or with concrete plans: taking the course on the side, planning the coaching or consulting based on their skills, saving up to finally quit.
I watch with glee while people wake up. Slowly but surely.
False promises have been made
They promised a hybrid model, some kept up their words but want to slowly lure employees back to the office full-time.
As if the talented employees have temporary amnesia.
In fact, some employers are having signs of short-term memory loss, come back to the office. We work better from here, they say.
After 2 years of amazing delivery from their staff working from home, suddenly they have trust issues.
On the opposite side, smart companies are creating full-time work from anywhere measures and keep listening to the word on the street.
