Complaining and speaking up are not the same thing! Everyone should be comfortable with speaking up at work. The first reason to speak up at work is to share an opinion about something. Chances are, you were hired because they like what you bring to the table--your opinion, unique perspective, and the things you care about. Have an opinion and share it, but do so in a tactful way that doesn't put other people down or hurt their feelings. The second type of speaking up we need to practice is about driving actual change. When you speak up inside of your organization to drive change, the most important thing you can do is have a solution. A lot of employees are good at complaining. But if asked what to do to change it, they don’t know what to say. That's not an effective way to drive change inside of your organization. It’s crucial for you to speak the language of the business and have some sort of a proposed solution that you want to see happen if you truly want to drive change. --------------------- The #1 challenge for organizations right now is how to attract and retain talent.

Most of the time, we’re focused on what is right in front of us, especially with our careers. But we need to pay attention to the tangentials. That means opening up a bit to notice the things on the sides related to our main focus. For example, let’s say you are in finance. If you’re someone who is paying attention to the tangentials, you would probably notice that there are a lot of conversations happening around the impact AI and technology might have on your job. Because of this, you could ask yourself, where else can my skills and abilities be used besides just finance? Then you would realize that your skills are also very much in demand in areas like HR data science and people analytics. You can now quickly pivot and bring your skills to another area. If you had your blinders on, you would be very much stuck in finance and not have as many options to grow and expand. This is why it’s very important to pay attention to the tangentials. --------------------- The #1 challenge for organizations right now is how to attract and retain talent.

Do you need to be an executive at a company to be a leader? No, you don't. Leading others is a choice. It's not about your title. There are plenty of people who have senior executive titles but are terrible leaders. And similarly, there are lots of other people who don't have executive titles but are amazing leaders. Being a leader is about influencing change. It's about motivating, engaging, empowering, and inspiring others. If you want to be a better leader, then start leading. ----------- The #1 challenge for organizations right now is how to attract and retain talent.

We’ve never invested more time, more money, or more resources into employee engagement programs. We spend billions of dollars every year, but around the world, employee engagement scores aren’t improving. Why? Because it’s the employee experience that creates an engaged workforce. And an engaged workforce impacts ROI. If you want to have an engaged workforce, start by investing in the experience of your people. This is based on a concept created by a psychologist named Thomas Gilovich. He realized that if you invest in a physical good, your satisfaction goes down over time. However, if you invest in an experience, over time, your satisfaction goes up. Learn how the world’s top CEOs create amazing employee experiences within their organizations. ----------- The #1 challenge for organizations right now is how to attract and retain talent.
