What's Missing At Work? Ongoing Growth and Professional Development

Wondering why you, your colleagues, or your workforce are stagnating? Here are some key stats we may want to consider:

  • 58% of employees say they would leave their company if they didn’t have professional development and/or training opportunities

  • 35% of employees rate learning and development among the top three elements of the employee experience

  • Over half of millennial employees say that professional development and training opportunities are a “must-have” benefit from their employer, more than any other demographic.

My latest article for Forbes dives into these stats and what we can do about them.

Human development is a NEED, not a “nice to have,” and organizations that provide ongoing developmental opportunities are the ones that keep the most engaged, productive, well-retained workforces. Stimulating workers is essential indeed.
