ENCOURAGE ENGAGEMENT

Engaged employees are happy employees, and they will gravitate towards organizations who are listening to their ideas and taking action – from the first time they meet you and throughout their time with your company. By proactively engaging with employees to better understand what is truly important to them at work, you create a culture of belonging and an environment of openness right from day one.

PROMOTE GROWTH

Many top candidates are looking for roles where their growth is fostered and their skills are sharpened. In your mission statement as well as during interviews with potential team members, convey that you value continued learning and reward ongoing growth within your organization, as it shows that you offer an environment where their talents won’t be taken for granted.

LEAD WITH GRATITUDE

The last few years have reminded us how important gratitude and positive mental health really are. As an employer it’s important to demonstrate empathy and care for your team, by offering positions that take into consideration their physical, mental, and financial well-being. Don’t forget - gratitude can come in many forms, verbal acknowledgement, written feedback, monetary bonuses, perks and more.
