2. Redefine vision with confidence and clarity

3. Supplement your winners with winners

4. Reward and recognize through relationships and performance

5/5/2020 25

HOW TO BE A TALENT MAGNET IN THE RECOVERY

1. Don’t overlook your existing “Winners”

2. Consider the currently employed

3. Balance your team – offset your weaknesses

4. Be aware of the new norm = “candidate rich market”

5. Create or dust off diligent hiring process that examines: 1) past performance, 2) attitude and 3) promise

6. Preserve Deep Smarts

7. Create a referral incentive program based on tenure and performance

5/5/2020 26

LEADING IN THE “NEW NORM”: the redefinition of “work / life balance” and “workplace”

The workforce and workplace will never be the same … again.

What have we learned?

1. This pandemic has tested our workforce and workplace traditions

2. We have the technological capability to work from home

3. Logistically, working from home is tough, especially with families

4. Productivity stabilized if not increased in some cases

5. Leadership and managing must adapt

5/5/2020 27

What’s Important Now (WIN)? The recovery will not happen overnight

1. Do not force the return to work, full time. Treat each case individually, allow flexibility with patience.

2. Do not seek the “old days” of 3 months ago. Realize that “value” at work probably changed.

3. Enhance the relationships on your team. Define their individual wants and needs and expectations.

4. Enhance communications to address any speculation or fear. Blend zoom video calls with individual video calls and begin adding in-person 1:1.

5. Set a clear direction, with expectations, but at all times, reward and recognize.

The “recovery” is a journey and not a point in time!
