Want to increase your workplace retention? Give that top talent you’ve spent so much time and effort recruiting more access to the leaders, the top people. Or just to their immediate boss.power of access
This is not about face time or having them practice their elevator pitch or stalking the senior leaders in the restroom.
It’s also not about having the top of the company get REAL input from the people who do the work of the company. Not a quarterly half day of time they shadow an employee to remind themselves of what it’s like.
Top talent today has access to everything in their lives pouring in their inbox and on the screens of their devices. They can order a ride, create dinner and have it delivered, pick a dress for formal event, chat with a friend halfway around the globe, get a prescription for their sinus infection, and run a side business all from the palm of their hand.
What they can’t get is ACCESS or TIME with the people who are at the top of the company they spend most of their waking hours with.power of access
Scarcity creates value.
There is scarcity in how much time people spend with their boss and the leaders of the company. One hour a week or every other week is enough to keep us afloat. Real time has value. Real access can mean the difference between building a relationship and trust with your team and recruiting to fill the spot of someone who just left.
It’s a real shift in how you lead when you prioritize your personal availability to the team. Individuals find value in that access. Access drives trust and transparency which are two key components to Rebel Success.
