Incentivize loyalty<br \/>Pay and overall compensation is important, but also consider ideas such as one-time bonuses, helping pay down student loans, and providing work-from-home stipends (or return to the workplace stipends)<br \/><br \/>2. Provide opportunities to grow<br \/>Ask each employee what it takes for them to stay and whether their job utilizes good use of their skills; 68% of workers around the world are willing to retrain and learn new skills<br \/><br \/>3. Elevate your purpose<br \/>Make your organization\u2019s purpose clear (vision, mission and goals) and how they can be supported<br \/><br \/>4. Prioritize culture and connection<br \/>Connect and build relationships; social connections have a significant positive impact on productivity<br \/><br \/>5. Invest in taking care of your employees\u00a0<i>and<\/i>\u00a0their families<br \/>Provide health resources (physical and mental) as needed<br \/><br \/>6. Embrace flexibility<br \/>Provide a flexible work environment ex. Location, work hours, paid time off, career options, ask about worker needs, and assess if a four year degree is truly needed (or other job requirements)<br \/><br \/>It\u2019s up to us as leaders to make a difference!
