The Great Divide
While playing the report title The Great Divide off the Australian Great Dividing Range, a study of Australian work attitudes reveals a serious disconnect:
• Almost 90% of employers believe that up to 80% of their workforce will be stable for two years.
• Yet, 74% of employees say that they will move either as soon as possible or when the right opportunity comes along.
• Furthermore, 62% of employees believed that their career path requires that they leave their current employer.
The issues of perception based on viewpoint are not confined to Australia, but are repeatedly revealed in studies in many locations. Can the needed actions be more clear?
Don’t take your employees for granted. They will only stay in a win-win situation. Stress career development and internal mobility opportunities to increase retention. Successful retention strategies require bridging that great divide.
