Today I’m talking with Jennifer McClure, a former executive recruiter and HR executive who offers a wealth of knowledge on the subject of corporate leadership. Jennifer is here to talk to us about developing corporate leaders and the importance of employee appreciation.
People don’t leave companies, they leave managers
It seems like common sense that people want to be appreciated, they want to feel like the work they do, matters. We’ll discuss the old adage that people don’t leave companies, they leave managers and how employees want to know that someone’s paying attention. It may be easy for people to jump ship when times get tough, if they don’t feel a connection with management, so we’ll cover how to avoid this downfall.
When you think you’re doing it right, but you’re not
Jennifer will share with us, a time she thought she was doing everything right, until she found out she wasn’t. One of her best employees left, and thankfully, that employee opened up to Jennifer about why she was leaving. This gave her the opportunity to make changes in the way she managed, and create more meaningful connections with the employees under her care.
Episode Highlights:
- People don’t leave jobs, they leave managers
- Managing people the right way
- How to create meaningful connections with your employees
- Making your appreciation intentional
- Avoiding stereotypes, especially about generations
- The importance of feedback
- How technology has allowed us to be more connected
Until next time, lead well!
