FEATURE
TRUST AND
EMPOWERMENT:
Two Keys to Emerging
Unscathed from the
Great Resignation
By Josh Cyphers
THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC has accelerated a lot of trends, including
the trend of people quitting their jobs.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
It's a seller's market, and employreports
that
nearly four million
Americans quit their jobs in July-for
the fourth month in a row. In the same
month, job openings rose to a record
high. According to a Microsoft survey
released in June, 41% of US workers
were considering resigning. Pundits
are calling it " The Great Resignation. "
This should be a very loud wakeup
call for business leaders. The biggest
cost to any organization is trying to
replace experienced people. Now more
than ever, it's harder to recruit and
retain good people.

ees' values have changed during the
pandemic. According to research
released by Gartner in September,
" Employees no longer want the traditional
employment value proposition,
instead they want a more human deal
with their employers where they are
recognized as people, not just workers. "
CREATING A GROWTH
CULTURE
The most important step a leader can
take to meet employees where their
values are is to establish a culture of
trust and empowerment. I only have to
look at my own career to see how much
this impacts employee and company
performance.
I've worked in organizations where
there was trust and empowerment. I
wanted to come to work every day, to
work hard and do my best. I felt valued,
and empowered to solve problems and
bring new ideas to the table.
I've worked in environments where
trust and empowerment were lacking.
I wasn't excited to get into work. I
dreaded each meeting, each conversation,
and eventually, the entire day. I
kept my head down, and my mouth
shut, and ultimately, I left.
