Tonight, Shawn and I—one of our coaches—are heading up to the Northeast where we've been invited to speak and present to a group of contractors in Providence, Rhode Island at the JLC LIVE convention. We're super excited about it. When we attend trade shows and talk to contractors—or really, any other business owners—we hear a common refrain: "Nobody wants to work anymore." As we listen to the complaints, we can't help but smirk a little bit. It's easy to blame Millennials or Gen Zers, but is that really the root of the problem? Is that why we can't build a loyal crew or retain the top talent we've been looking for—let alone even find it? Recently, I received an email with a subject line that said this—I'm not making this up: "Jason quit. This sucks. I'm hating Millennials." While it's tempting to point fingers at younger generations, the reality is a little more complex than that. It's not that people don't want to work—it's that they don't want to work in chaotic environments that lack clarity and direction. And now, they have something previous generations didn't: options. In the past—the '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s—you didn't have as many ways to go out and create work for yourself. But now? People have choices. So let's consider a different perspective: what if the issue isn't with the workers, but with the work environment you're providing? Are you offering a workplace that attracts and retains talent—or are you unknowingly pushing potential employees away? I'm about to share what I believe is a silver bullet—a tool that finds and retains talent better than anything else in business. Now, of course, you're going to be skeptical. I would be too. That's understandable. But I urge you to keep an open mind. If you believe this could be true—if this is a silver bullet—think about the potential impact on your business. Imagine being able to find and retain the talent you need. The solution might be very simple. Maybe even obvious. You might roll your eyes. But I challenge you to pause and consider its power. What if this one thing could transform your ability to attract and keep great employees? The key lies in this: creating an environment—or culture—of transparency, vulnerability, and purpose. Before you turn this off, just hang with me. I'm going to give you something concrete. It's about offering more than just a job—it's about providing a vision, a clear path forward, and a sense of belonging. When you offer consciousness and conciseness in your business operations—via captured processes and clear communication—then your business, through a less-than-10-word mission statement, can create a workplace people want to be part of. Right now, we're going through an interview process for a new role. The longer we go through our process, the more excited the candidates become. It's actually making it harder for us—because we're going to have to turn people away. Why is it getting harder? Because they want to work here. They see the vision—because we've shared it. They see the mission—because we've shared it. They see the core values—because we've shared them. And they say, “We appreciate this.” One of the most common things we hear back is: “I've worked with businesses that say all this, but don't do anything about it.” People—especially younger generations—notice. And yes, I said people, because this applies to all generations. But especially younger ones. They're looking for more than just a paycheck. They want to feel valued, understood, and part of something meaningful. So by focusing on clarity in your business practices and communication, you can create that kind of environment. What does that include? Weekly, agenda-driven, leader-led team meetings Weekly, one-hour departmental meetings Predictable one-on-one check-ins Annual performance feedback so team members know what's expected Executive team using a “Big 5” feedback loop, so their communication back to the team is clear and consistent And here's the big question: do you have these things written down? Before you blame an entire generation for your staffing woes, you need to take a hard look at your own business. Are you providing clarity and purpose? Here's a simple litmus test: Are your vision, mission, values, org chart, job roles, checklists, scorecards, and KPIs written down? If not, then they don't exist. The solution to your hiring and retention problems might be closer than you think. It starts with you. And it starts with writing things down. Need help? Hop on a call with one of our coaches.

Why do some companies consistently outshine their rivals, attract top talent, and spark innovation while others struggle? Many treat employee relationships like a simple transaction—initial excitement fades, and so does satisfaction. This leaves companies with disengaged teams and high turnover. In today's Leadership Spark, we'll explore how top companies have figured out the key to shifting from a transactional approach to one that treats employment as an enriching experience. Based on prominent psychologist Thomas Gilovich's research, it's clear: investing in experiences, not just tools, boosts satisfaction over time. We dive into the evolution from productivity-driven workplaces to purpose-led organizations that emphasize mutual value exchange, fostering a culture of growth, learning, and leadership. Discover how the employee experience era is redefining the way we think about work. ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

The success of the civil service has always depended on the recruitment and retention of exceptional individuals – and this means bringing in talented outsiders with particular skills and capabilities. It is 170 years since the Northcote-Trevelyan report argued that people “of the highest abilities should be selected for the highest posts” in Whitehall, while the government's most recent reform plan, the 2021 Declaration on Government Reform, argued that more external recruits were needed. So, who are the officials at the very top of the civil service – and is enough being done to recruit the best outside talent? Permanent secretaries Cat Little, Sarah Munby and Gareth Davies joined us to discuss the benefits of external recruitment to the civil service.

Working at an adolescent group home in New Hampshire, she discovered her battle with addiction, propelling her toward a career dedicated to helping others. Cassie's journey didn't stop there.

Most organizations don't put enough time into the culture and mindset that makes them a great place to work and they miss out on talent because of it.   It's one thing to post a job and wait for applicants to start rolling in. It's another thing to proactively make your company a destination - a place people would beat down doors to join.   Maybe it's HR laziness or an inability to determine your company's true value proposition, but ultimately, if you're not thinking about what your company brings to the marketplace, you're in trouble.   In this edition of Million Dollar Careers, we explore how to make your company stand above the rest when it comes to attracting and retaining talent.   If you're really good and you can take a company, P&L or territory to new heights, you take the base salary for you to live on and then you work for the upside which you can thrive on. -Craig Picken   Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode    -How to establish your company as an elite workplace What would make someone want to relocate and move to your company?   -How to make joining your company a no-brainer If salary isn't enough to compel the best people to join your company, what are they looking for?    -What special force operations teach us about attraction and retention A lot of military operations aren't lacking in ambitious people eager to join, what's their secret?    Learn More About Your Host:   Co-founder and Managing Partner for Northstar Group, Craig is focused on recruiting senior level leadership, sales and operations executives for some of the most prominent companies in the aviation and aerospace industry. Clients include well known aircraft OEM's, aircraft operators, leasing / financial organizations, and Maintenance / Repair / Overhaul (MRO) providers.    Since 2009 Craig has personally concluded more than 150 executive searches in a variety of disciplines.
