Event Details

About the Presentation:

While the unemployment rate fell to its lowest point in more than 50 years, employee engagement has followed that same downward trend.

There have been huge movements of talented people, referred to as the great resignation and quiet quitting, as workers reassessed the impact of work and what they want to get out of their lives.

This has placed pressure on organizations to ensure they are providing attractive career opportunities, the flexibility of hybrid work in many cases, and an enticing work environment and company culture.

Offering people fulfilling work, ongoing opportunities to grow and learn, flexibility, and diverse, value-oriented workplaces will all be essential in 2023 and beyond.
