There is a level of burnout and heavy cognitive load that people experience in general as we all fight through an ongoing global health crisis. Some may step up and perform better than most at work,while many others choose to let go.
Why is this happening, and how do we prevent this in our own organizations?
Key points covered in this episode:
[00:05:28] The Mass Resignation -- WHY is this happening? As a worldwide phenomenon, it's almost like a pandemic. The reality you will find interesting is how it's all about fatigue—being in this constant state of change, rolling with the punches and living in a world of chaos. Most people in the world decide how they want better ways to live and build new careers.
[00:06:47] The pandemic fatigue and VUCA Leadership. People can thrive, while some cannot adapt to manage with Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity—all of these which we continue to deal with in our lives and businesses today.
[00:07:30]Are you a star creator? Transform your passion into purpose and be the resilient leader who can lead amid chaos, deal with the hard stuff when other people can't and build people up for greatness.
[00:12:27] Clearing your workspace also clears your mind. If there's so much stuff on your desk, your brain also processes all of the things. Clutter, five empty water cups or coffee cups possess dead energy that contributes to creating heavy spaces.
[00:19:36] Don't beat yourself up too much if you're working hard and doing the best you can and still finding that you've got attrition.
[00:20:44] Be honest with yourself and look at your culture and say -- Are you providing something that makes people want to stay with you and not resign? Are you helping address their needs at all levels that affect their jobs and make them happy humans at work?
[00:26:04] When's the last time you had a beer or coffee with your people? Do they have kids? What are they working towards in life? Please sit down, get to know your people and understand what's going on for them. The most important way to battle mass resignation is to connect and communicate with your team and give them that safety to talk to you fully and openly.
