Urgent Need for Healthcare Companies to Keep Up, Attract, Retain and Engage Employees

Millennials Already Considering Job Hopping

Sixty percent of Millennials, soon to be the biggest part of the workforce, are currently looking for a new job opportunity that will satisfy their needs.

Millennials are looking for something special in their work.

In the words of Gallup’s article “Why Healthcare Leaders Should build a Culture of Development” “Millennial employees . . . are looking for a coach, not just a boss. They want ongoing feedback, a rich sense of purpose, and continuous personal and professional development -- starting now.”

No Warning

The Wall Street Journal notes that now, more than ever, Millennials are quitting their jobs without even giving notice.

You won’t have time to go back and change the corporate culture.

The Fix

According to Gallup: “Healthcare leaders must align their performance management tactics with changing workplace demands to ensure their people show up to work every day with the guidance, incentives and support they need to perform at their best.”

Don’t Be Left Behind

Managers, new and emerging leaders can learn to fully engage employees.

Since only 29% of Millennials say they’re engaged at work now, companies who coach their managers, new and emerging leaders on how to fully engage their employees will be companies who are the “Employer of Choice.”

With as connected as Millennials are today, word of great employers (and less than great employers) gets out quickly.

Companies who coach their new leaders to fully engage employees will win in this highly competitive environment.

Employee Engagement Equals Success

Fully engaged employees lead to:

• Improved retention rates
• Increased productivity and profitability
• Innovation

Extra Bonus for Senior Leadership

New leaders who are well coached enable a smooth transition for the entire team.

Also, they create more autonomous teams who communicate well and work well together. Thus, eliminating drama, and focusing on positive productivity.

Now senior leaders, rather than spending their time refereeing personnel issues, can focus on higher level initiatives.

And, senior leaders will now have a high-performance team, with the time, talent and energy to support and carry out those initiatives.

Act Now

“I credit the great success of our fully engaged team 32 of 54 employees promoted at least once, highest employee satisfaction ratings, key recurring projects completed 250% faster than before] to our work with Crystal Jonas. My only wish is that we’d started Coaching with Crystal sooner.” ~ Roxanne LaCroix, Director Medicaid Leadership and Development, Aetna

Where Would You Like to Be?

Hockey legend Wayne Gretzky knew that while most players have a delayed reaction, he could be successful by being forward thinking and acting quickly.

As he said, “I skate to where the puck is going.”

Don’t Be Left Behind

No need to be the one trying to catch up to the competition.

Lead the pack. Take action quickly.

“I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough. We must apply. Being willing is not enough. We must do.” ~ Leonardo da Vinci
