‘While many of these trends are obvious, many companies aren’t ready. Last year I talked to the CHRO of Boeing and he told me the problems were highlighted by employees years ago. They simply were not listening, and now they’re a company in crisis.’ Excellent piece of writing summarising well the problems of tomorrow if companies DONT listen to their employees and start creating experiences that are aligned with very different needs and expectations. Are you listening? Are you asking the important questions to see your employees? #iamhuman #iseeyou #humanenergy #beinghuman #humancentricity

Great article by Josh Bersin. He hits on some key points, one of which is near and dear to my heart in that #leaders need to #listen to their #employees and not make decisions in a bubble. Generally speaking the people on the frontline know what is going on in the organization and with their customers much better and often far sooner than leadership does. Invite diverse groups of employees to have a seat at the table and make sure it is not the same group every time. Here are a couple of other key points from the article:  ✔ Young workers don’t expect to “become the job,” they want the job to “become them.” (Often called “job crafting.”) And given the shortage of workers in every role, this trend is just getting bigger. ✔ Despite the growth of AI, companies are more dependent on their workforce than ever. And with 70% of the jobs now service-related (healthcare, retail, hospitality), employees really are our product. ✔ Companies and employers live in a pool of labor: it’s the needs and expectations of people who decide what we can and should do. People are upset about inflation. They’re worried about climate change. They want CEOs to behave ethically. And they want flexible work that lets them live a joyful life. ✔ The problems were highlighted by employees years ago. They simply were not listening, and now they’re a company in crisis. ✔ Today much of the intelligence we need to grow our companies is sitting with front-line workers. We need to “activate employees” and listen to them directly. Neena Kovuru, PHR,PMP, CBP,Green Belt,SHRM-CP,TMCP,ODCP Kimberly B.
