  • "With employees placing a higher priority on finding a job that fits their preferences, companies need to tailor the types of financial, social and developmental incentives and opportunities they provide to individual employees’ preferences. Customizing reward packages may potentially increase administrative costs, but it can help retain a highly engaged workforce.

    Companies should also reframe how they approach managing their workers. One way to do this is by investing in external relationships that ensure consistent access to high-quality talent. Enhancing relationships with educational institutions is one option. Adopting alumni programs that recruit former employees to rejoin is another. Former employees are often less expensive to recruit and possess both an understanding of an organization’s processes and an appreciation of its culture."
