Resignations are at an all-time high and companies desperate to attract and retain employees are trying everything—from pay raises to trendy perks.

But these interventions are falling short. According to Marcus Buckingham, (LinkedIn profile)  leading thinker on workplace performance, the real problem is that companies have designed jobs to be stressful, meaningless, and unlovable. To attract and keep the best people, leaders need to design work that people love.

Marcus will share insights from his May/June cover story, “Designing Work That People Love” as well as the data from his work at ADP Research Institute on what keeps employees engaged.

Marcus will discuss:

• Why leaders need to change their approach to performance management to take advantage of each employee’s unique skills and passions.
• Three mindset shifts leaders must make: Viewing employees as the organization’s key stakeholders, moving away from standardization in performance management tools, and trusting each employee to accomplish their goals as they see fit.
• How companies like Walmart and lululemon are changing their thinking—and how they are making improvements in retention and performance.

Employees don’t need to love everything about their jobs, but research shows that a little love can go a long way toward reducing burnout and helping with engagement.

Oftentimes, webinars and virtual training are focused on “learning for the future.” Their goal is to present all the content so the learners will hopefully remember and apply them on the job.

Unfortunately, this method creates a big distance between knowing the concept and the time of applying the content. The consequence is that few ideas are retained and eventually applied.

Learning, for now, is another option. It enables learners to learn to apply ideas now, instantly, and immediately. The benefits are that the webinars bring immediate results at work, and the learners remember the lessons better because they have the chance to apply them “now.”

Topics to cover:

• Why are leaders pushing more for “Learning for Now?”
• What are the differences between “Learning for Now” from “Learning for the Future?”
• What are the key steps to convert presentations to more current and recent demands of the business?
• What are examples and templates of “Learning for Now” methods?
• How do you use your webinar and virtual platform to implement  “Learning for Now?”
