Perhaps we should stop worrying about keeping good staff?

(You know I like to keep my messages short. So I’m only publishing

part of my comments here. If you want to read them in full,

I’ve wondered about publishing the following "left field statement" as

a Making Life Work Thought and was concerned that, on its own, it

might be misunderstood:

 

People in the workplace are like mobile telephones. They’re

part of the new breed of 21^st century life, they’re a versatile

product of the modern technological era, are masters of applying

such technology in ingenious, practical ways and are global

communicators. Sadly they reach their use-by date all too quickly

and need to be replaced by something more relevant to one’s

changing needs.  

And the employees are just as bad!

 

 

It's my way of drawing attention to the fact that everybody in business keeps

telling me how difficult it is to keep good staff. "I train them up and then they

leave" is the ever-so-common comment I get - especially in relation to younger

staff. (click here to go to my blog if you want to read more and, if you wish,
