Keep Them Longer; How to create a culture so good to leave

The Great Hiring has been followed by The Great Resignation and leaders throughout the industry are left wondering: what are we doing wrong? The role we have played as employers has changed. So how do you compete for good people and retain the great ones too in a post-Covid world? And how do you avoid the worker turnover that costs American companies $30 billion last year alone? The answer: Purpose. Research is showing employees at all levels expect to be a part of impact-driven companies. Transactions aren’t enough – employees want transformation.

In this session discover how to quickly connect the Purpose of your employees to the mission of your company. Discover the unbelievably simple strategy that creates deeper connection, increase retention, and work output — without adding another program or time-consuming training. Identify what “impact” and “sustainability” means for each generation, lead the field, and never lose a great employee again.

Gabrielle is frequently called upon to speak and consult on Millennial motivation and engagements for Fortune 500 Companies, presidential campaigns, and government agencies.

Gabrielle emerged on the scene as the leading Millennial voice after her breakthrough TEDx Talk challenged the notion that Millennials are the Next Greatest Generation.

She started The Millennial Solution at the age of 25 after attending one-too-many workshops on Millennials… led by someone who wasn’t a Millennial.

Gabrielle now utilizes her 11 years of Millennial research to provide high-level solutions to a broad range of clients– from automotive giants to boutique media shops to the United States government. These solutions include marketing plans that aren’t lame, recruiting and hiring strategies and manager training programs that boost retention.

Creating a culture of wellness in the workplace not only benefits the employees but the workplace as a whole. Research shows that employee well-being programs reduce the number of “sick days”, reduce turn – over rate, and improve overall job satisfaction. The Working Wellness into the Workplace workshop will educate participants on everything from the importance of wellness to ideas and suggestions on how to implement, evaluate and maintain a healthy work environment. This workshop will also speak to the new post-pandemic workplace – which requires employers to think differently about what employee wellness looks like.
