“Never have relationships been as important as they are today, with all your stakeholders., but it begins with your employees. If your employees are not happy and engaged, you had better believe they are not engaged with your customers in a way that nurtures trust and relationships. This will increase in importance over the next decade. Are your employees happy? Do they want to be at work? Do your managers and supervisors ‘lead’ or ‘manage’ people? Leaders and managers must be able to lead people, not just manage things. People do not respond well to being treated as things. What is your turnover rate of new hires–young people? Young people will not tolerate what Boomers did! They will exit
. Leadership and people skills rock the boat in importance to org success today. Ask yourself some critical questions, but answer them honestly. Your success depends on it .” ~PH #leadership #SHRM #management #speaker #trainer pat@patriciahatleyinc.com patriciahatleyinc.com
