GLOBAL TALENT RISK

The Northern hemisphere faces talent shortages in a wide range of occupational clusters largely because populations are aging rapidly and educational standards are insufficient.

The United States will need to add more than 25 million workers to its talent base by 2030 to sustain economic growth.

Western Europe will need to add more than 45 million workers.

In Germany, 70% of employers are hard-pressed to find the right people.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A GREAT COMPANY CULTURE?

CULTURE IS THE CONTEXT FOR CANDIDATES.


SO, WHAT MAKES A GREAT COMPANY CULTURE?


GROWTHTO LEARN NEW SKILLS


BHAVIN PARIKH, CEOOur employees receive a monthly stipend to take classes on anything they want. Classes have ranged from ceramics to ukulele to chocolate tasting. I’ve noticed an unexpected benefit — employees now also take more professional development classes and are getting better at their day-to-day work. Learning is contagious.


HAPPINESSWORK IS BETTER WITH FRIENDS


PEOPLE WHO HAVE A BEST FRIEND AT WORK ARE SEVEN TIMES MORE LIKELY TO BE ENGAGED WITH THAT WORK, ACCORDING TO GALLUP RESEARCH. GALLUP RESEARCH SHOWS THAT CLOSE FRIENDSHIPS AT WORK BOOST EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION BY ALMOST 50%.


LIAM MARTIN, CEOWe run a remote company with more than 50 employees, so finding a time to have everyone just hang out is rare. Therefore, we implemented a video game day when everyone can come together and play online. So far, it has been a great success and really helpful with inter-division communication.


ABUNDANCENOT NECESSARILY BEING RICH, BUT LIVING A LIFESTYLE WHERE YOU FEEL RICH


AOL’S HIP AND MODERN PALO ALTO OFFICE


NETFLIX AND OTHERS OFFER UNLIMITED VACATION TIME


SIGNIFICANCEFEELING THE WORK YOU DO MAKES A DIFFERENCE


These brands collectively outperformed the S&P 500 almost 400 percent over 10 years. The study concluded that the best businesses “were built not just on innovative product or service ideas but on ideals.”

Research consultancy Milward Brown found in the Stengel Study of Business Growth that the top 50 high-growth brands were, on average, more likely than their competitors to be driven by ideals.


MEANINGWORKING TOWARDS A HUGE, SEEMINGLY IMPOSSIBLE GOAL.


“IF YOU WANT TO BUILD A SHIP, DON'T DRUM UP PEOPLE TO COLLECT WOOD AND DON'T ASSIGN THEM TASKS AND WORK, BUT RATHER TEACH THEM TO LONG FOR THE ENDLESS IMMENSITY OF THE SEA.” —ANTOINE DE SAINT-EXUPERY


“TO PROVIDE A FREE WORLD-CLASS EDUCATION TO ANYONE ANYWHERE”

“TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY”

“THE END OF SOFTWARE”


SAFEGUARD THE CULTURE


People leave managers, not companies.
