One of the largest issues facing small businesses is how to recruit and keep employees. In the “2021 People Management Report,” the Predictive Index surveyed nearly 2,000 employees across more than 15 industries. According to the study, 48% of employees have thought about changing careers in the past 12 months. Another survey indicated that over 30% of people who quit their jobs did not have an offer of employment in another company! Large employers like Amazon are also competing for employees.This workshop will discuss options for small businesses to compete in the competitive labor market.
Presented by: Del Carver with SCORE - Fargo.
